Jacksonville Jaguars running back
Travis Etienne Jr. had a quiet Week 5, but should have a better week this week against the Seattle Seahawks. Etienne Jr. only had 12 rushing attempts, his lowest of the season, and Trevor Lawrence vultured two red zone touchdowns. If the bell-cow back can find the endzone again this week, he should easily clear double digit fantasy points. The volume and overall team success bodes well for Etienne Jr. in Week 6 and beyond to continue earning touches and exceeding preseason expectations. Even against a solid rush defense, Etienne Jr. is a high-end RB2 this week, just as he has been the past few weeks.

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Jalen Ramsey (hamstring) is expected to return in Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns. Ramsey suffered the injury during the team's Week 4 win over the Vikings, a game in which he recorded his first interception of the season. The three-time All-Pro will rejoin Joey Porter Jr. and Darius Slay, in what should be one of the league's top cornerback trios. Ramsey and Porter's return comes at a tough time for Browns quarterback
Dillon Gabriel and wide receiver
Jerry Jeudy, who have struggled to gain traction this season. With Pittsburgh's elite secondary back at full strength, Jeudy could be in for another quiet outing.

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker
Cam Little serves as a solid fantasy kicker once again in Week 6. The Jaguars offense has done well enough to score points and produce longer drives, but hasn’t been so good that they haven’t provided Little with field goal attempts. Since a nice Week 1 outing of 14 fantasy points, Little hasn’t produced much, but he at least has been consistent in hitting his field goals and reaching a satisfactory fantasy point total (5-9 points). Managers can definitely do better than Little in Week 6, but he’s been reliable enough to be in starting lineups.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver
Brian Thomas Jr. showed some promise in Week 5, leading the team in receiving against the Chiefs. He finally showed his big play ability by amassing 80 tards on just four catches in a winning effort. That efficiency is a big reason fantasy managers drafted him so high this season, and why he stood out so much as a rookie. While he remains a WR2, he is at least heading in the right direction in Week 6 against the Seattle Seahawks, allowing fantasy managers to feel a little bit better about having him in starting lineups.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver
JuJu Smith-Schuster could be entering his final week of fantasy relevance. Through five games, the veteran has caught 16 of 21 targets for 168 yards and a touchdown, primarily operating out of the slot. Smith-Schuster has been a steady part of the Chiefs' passing attack, logging 74% of snaps and routes, but that role is likely to diminish soon. With
Rashee Rice set to return from suspension in Week 7, Smith-Schuster's playing time and target share could take a significant hit. For Week 6, however, he draws a favorable matchup against a Lions defense that's allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Smith-Schuster carries deep-league FLEX appeal in what could be his final start-worthy week for Kansas City.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver
Travis Hunter has had an interesting rookie year, leaving fantasy managers unsure what to do with him. Things are starting to look up a bit for Hunter as he gets more acclimated with playing both sides in the NFL, but it seems he needs more time to become a consistent fantasy asset. He had his highest yardage and snap percentage of the season last week (64 yards, 67% snaps) and could potentially get more opportunities with Brenton Strange on IR. Hunter clearly has the talent to be a fantasy asset in the near future, but for now, managers need to continue playing the long game in redraft leagues.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver
DeAndre Hopkins was looking like a sleeper pick in deeper leagues when
Lamar Jackson (hamstring) found him for some big plays the first couple of weeks. Since then, however, Hopkins has had a combined three receptions for 59 yards in three games and hasn't had a finish better than WR54. Then, we throw
Cooper Rush and a defensive unit like the Los Angeles Rams into the mix, and everything gets a lot more bleak. In half-PPR formats, Hopkins is projected as the WR77, so fantasy managers will want to look elsewhere for an option with a higher ceiling in Week 6.

Baltimore Ravens running back
Justice Hill has hit one very high output among many lows so far this season. His biggest value continues to be in full PPR formats, and the fact that the Ravens' defense has been so terrible that the offense has to abandon the run early. Hill has only registered one week finishing in the top 30 at the position, and has one more finish inside the top 36. The Los Angeles Rams are one of the toughest defenses against opposing backfields, which diminishes his value even further, even though
Cooper Rush will likely have plenty of dump-off throws. Hill is projected as the RB51 and is avoidable in most league sizes this week.

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver
Rashod Bateman has a chance to be the WR1 this week with
Zay Flowers (shoulder) listed as questionable. Unfortunately, that won't move the fantasy value needle too much while
Lamar Jackson (hamstring) remains sidelined. In Week 5, he saw three targets, but didn't register a single reception. As long as the offensive line continues to struggle, Bateman isn't likely to see many downfield throws, especially in a simplified offense for
Cooper Rush. As of right now, he's projected to finish around WR72 in half-PPR formats, so there are probably better options on the waiver wire for fantasy managers in need of a flex.

Baltimore Ravens tight end
Mark Andrews has accrued two games with seven or more fantasy points, and only one of those equated to a TE1 finish. His best game was in the Week 3 loss with
Lamar Jackson (hamstring) at the helm. In his first game with
Cooper Rush behind center and
Isaiah Likely in the mix, Andrews posted two catches for 11 yards on three targets. Despite the fact that the Los Angeles Rams are 19th against opposing tight ends, Andrews has a major uphill battle with how abysmal this offense has looked with Rush. The veteran tight end is projected as a low-end TE2 heading into this matchup, so fantasy managers may want to look for some better options.

Denver Broncos wide receiver
Marvin Mims Jr. has served mostly behind
Courtland Sutton and
Troy Franklin this season as the third receiver. Mims had his best game of the season in Week 4 against the Bengals, catching all six targets for 69 yards and rushing for a 16-yard touchdown. But he was unable to follow it up in Week 5 against Philadelphia, catching just two of five targets for 10 yards. The full-time role hasn't been there for Mims as head coach Sean Payton has rotated a lot of players at wide receiver. That leaves Mims as a tough player to trust in lineups for Week 6, where Denver will travel to London to face the Jets.

Baltimore Ravens running back
Derrick Henry continues to see his fantasy value diminish each week. In half-PPR formats, he's finished in RB1 territory only one time and has scored double-digit fantasy points twice. He only has one more touchdown than he does fumbles, and he still doesn't play any part in the passing game. Their opponent, the Los Angeles Rams, is currently ranked as the third-toughest team against running backs in fantasy as they give up just 15.56 fantasy points per matchup. They held
Christian McCaffrey to 57 yards on 22 carries and
Saquon Barkley to 46 yards on 18 carries. That combined with the Ravens' offensive line issues and fullback
Patrick Ricard (calf) still sidelined, means Henry is projected to finish around RB19.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver
Jaxon Smith-Njigba is in line to continue his excellent 2025 campaign in Week 6 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars have a much-improved defense this season, especially in the passing game. However, they have not played a passing offense as potent as Seattle's, and Chiefs quarterback
Patrick Mahomes just had a lot of luck against this team in Week 5. Smith-Njigba is proving to be matchup-proof. He is a fantastic possession wide receiver who can beat man coverage and find holes in zone coverage with ease. He should have no issues continuing that trend in Week 6. JSN has yet to earn fewer than five targets or 79 yards in a game this season. That type of floor is fantastic for a fantasy team. He has also scored in two of his last three games. As long as the touchdowns continue to flow, Smith-Njigba will remain among the top wideouts in fantasy football.

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver
Cooper Kupp has only proven to have fantasy value when Seattle's passing game exhibits high volume. Seattle's defense has a solid chance of shutting down the Jaguars' offense in Week 6, which would render Kupp an unnecessary part of the offense. Kupp has earned five or fewer targets in three of his five games this season. He can clearly still get the job done when called upon, but the Seahawks are frankly not calling upon his services often. There are plenty of other players, either on the waiver wire or potentially on your roster, that would be safer bets for consistent production in Week 6. If you need a break-glass option, Kupp could produce if the Jaguars' offense shows up. However, that is an absolute last resort scenario.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end
Hunter Long is in line for a significant increase in snaps over the coming weeks, with fellow tight end
Brenton Strange (quadriceps) placed on injured reserve. Long stepped in for Strange when he got injured in Jacksonville's Week 6 win over the Chiefs, playing 60% of the snaps and catching one pass for three yards after his departure. He recorded a season-high three receptions for 23 yards in Week 4 against the 49ers and has some appeal for fantasy managers who are desperate at tight end. He'll face a Seattle defense in Week 6 that has allowed the most receptions to tight ends on the season.
