Rookie Josh Cuevas a Deep-League Tight End to Monitor
Baltimore Ravens rookie fifth-round tight end Josh Cuevas had his best day as a professional in the team's 13-10 loss on Sunday in Week 6 to the division-rival Cleveland Browns, catching four of his five targets for 44 yards and his first career touchdown reception. The 23-year-old from Alabama played the same number of offensive snaps (23 -- 40%) as fellow tight end Nick Vannett, with veteran Mark Andrews unsurprisingly playing 72% of the snaps. Cuevas has a total of seven receptions on only eight targets for 84 yards and a touchdown in his first six NFL games, but he has had multiple catches now in back-to-back games from backup quarterback Tyler Huntley. He is not rostered in any Yahoo leagues right now, and he is merely a young tight end to monitor in much deeper fantasy football leagues. Cuevas probably will not see major waiver-wire consideration in single-year leagues unless Andrews misses time with an injury at some point.

Jerry Jeudy Back on the Waiver Radar After Leading Browns in Receiving?
Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is only rostered in 4% of Yahoo leagues at the moment, but that number could be going north by the end of the week after his four-catch, 69-yard game in Sunday's 13-10 Week 6 win over the division-rival Baltimore Ravens. Jeudy led the team in receiving, and it was also his highest yardage total through the first six weeks. The 27-year-old former first-rounder from Alabama did very little in the team's first five games, catching eight of his 15 targets for 81 yards and no trips to the end zone. He even had back-to-back contests in Weeks 2 and 3 where he gave fantasy managers a zero on the scoresheet. The disappointing part about his good game on Sunday is that his four targets were third on the team, and rookie pass-catchers KC Concepcion Jr. and Denzel Boston are both healthy and should continue to be the primary weapons for veteran quarterback Deshaun Watson. It was nice to see Jeudy get more involved for Cleveland in an impressive divisional upset, but most fantasy managers will want to see more in an offense that is definitely not turning any heads so far.

Terrance Ferguson Not Expected to be Ready Next Week
Los Angeles Rams second-year tight end Terrance Ferguson (ankle), who is eligible to come off Injured Reserve for the team's Week 8 game against the Los Angeles Chargers, is not expected to be ready at that time, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. In the words of a source, Ferguson's recovery "will take some time." It is a disappointment for the 2-4 Rams and for fantasy managers who have been stashing the 23-year-old since he was injured. The Rams could use a pass-catcher of Ferguson's caliber with veteran receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) now out for six to 10 weeks, but they are going to have to be patient. The good news for L.A. is that they have plenty of other TE options in Tyler Higbee, Colby Parkinson, and Davis Allen. Higbee is firmly on the tight end streaming radar for Week 7 against the Las Vegas Raiders and beyond, since it does not sound like Ferguson's return is right around the corner. Ferguson caught seven of his 12 targets for 63 yards and a touchdown in the first three games this year after posting an 11-232-3 line in 14 regular-season games in 2025 as a rookie. He is being stashed right now in 13% of Yahoo leagues.

Hollywood Brown Could be Traded in the Coming Weeks
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Hollywood Brown is a name that NFL teams seeking receiver help think could be traded in the coming weeks, sources told Jordan Schultz. Brown is currently healthy, has a 1,000-yard season on his resume, and recorded 49 catches for 587 yards and five touchdowns with the Kansas City Chiefs last year. The 29-year-old former 25th overall pick by the Baltimore Ravens in 2019 from Oklahoma has not had much of an opportunity in an Eagles offense that has been among the worst in the league through the first six weeks. To make matters worse, the Eagles lost starting quarterback Jalen Hurts for the rest of the 2026 season due to blood clots. Brown was only active in the Week 2 win over the Tennessee Titans, but he was not targeted at all in the passing game while seeing two carries for 12 yards. With Hurts done for the year, Brown is not going to be attractive at all in fantasy football unless he is traded away from the Eagles in 2026.

Davante Adams Officially Lands on Injured Reserve
The Los Angeles Rams officially placed veteran wide receiver Davante Adams (hamstring) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Sports. Adams ruptured his left hamstring in Sunday's Week 6 upset loss to the division-rival Arizona Cardinals and will need surgery. The 33-year-old is expected to miss anywhere from six to 10 weeks, but the Rams are hopeful that Adams will be ready to return a little after the team's Week 11 bye. Adams has a shot to return for fantasy managers at the tail end of the season before the playoffs start, but it remains to be seen how productive the aging receiver will be coming off a serious hamstring injury. His absence will put more pressure on star receiver Puka Nacua, who is likely to draw a lot of double teams from opposing defenses now. Behind Nacua, Jordan Whitting and Konata Mumpfield will be asked to step up, as well as tight ends Tyler Higbee and Colby Parkinson, with second-year TE Terrance Ferguson (ankle) not eligible to return from IR until next week. After catching a league-high 14 touchdown passes in the regular season in 2025 in his first year with the Rams, Adams caught 30 of his 49 targets for 480 yards and four scores through the first six games in 2026.

Anthony Mantha Cleared for Action
New Jersey Devils winger Anthony Mantha (illness) will suit up on Tuesday against Colorado, Amanda Stein of the Devils' official site reports. His status for the game was initially in doubt after Mantha missed Monday's practice due to illness. However, he returned to the ice during Tuesday's morning skate, and the Devils will have several big guns back. Luke Evangelista (illness) will return from a three-game absence, and Connor Brown (lower body) has been cleared to make his season debut. Mantha will skate on the third line and the second power-play unit.

Jaydon Blue Waived by Eagles on Tuesday
The Philadelphia Eagles shook up their backfield depth a bit more on Tuesday, waiving running backs Jaydon Blue and Carson Steele (shoulder) and signing running back Elijah Mitchell to their practice squad in a corresponding move, the team announced. Tank Bigsby (abdomen) and Will Shipley (foot) are on Injured Reserve, and it remains unclear if starter Saquon Barkley (hamstring) will be forced to miss a third straight game on Monday night to close out the Week 7 slate against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys. If Barkley is not cleared to face Dallas, Dameon Pierce will make a second straight start as the primary RB for a banged-up Eagles offense. Blue, a fifth-round pick by the Cowboys last year from Texas, was surprisingly cut by Dallas before the start of the regular season before being scooped up as depth for the Eagles. The 22-year-old could be claimed off waivers by another team as he looks to prove himself worthy of a game-day role in 2026. Blue appeared in only five games for the Cowboys as a rookie and had 38 rushing attempts for 129 yards and a touchdown while adding one catch for five yards.

Mats Zuccarello Ready for Action Tuesday
Los Angeles Kings right wing Mats Zuccarello (undisclosed) has been officially cleared to return to the lineup on Tuesday night against Washington. He has shaken off an undisclosed injury and will be in action after missing three games. Zuccarello has one assist in three games with the Kings. His start to the season has been disappointing, but he's capable of turning things around. Last season, Zuccarello averaged nearly a point per game with the Minnesota Wild, scoring 15 goals and adding 39 assists in 54 games.

Kyle Monangai Misses Another Practice on Tuesday
Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai (thumb, toe) is missing practice for a second straight day on Tuesday, according to Sean Hammond of The Chicago Tribune. Monangai looks set to miss a third straight game this Thursday night when the Bears host the New England Patriots to kick off Week 7 action. The 24-year-old second-year back was also listed as a non-participant during the team's walkthrough practice on Monday, so he will need to return to practice on Wednesday to have any shot at gaining clearance to be active on Thursday night. The bruising RB should be rostered in most fantasy football leagues as the backfield complement to starter D'Andre Swift, but you should keep him on your bench again this week. Monangai is dealing with a thumb injury and turf toe. If he is forced to miss a third straight game, Roschon Johnson will be in play as an RB3/flex option after he had a surprisingly big role alongside Swift in the Week 6 win over the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. Johnson had a season-high 13 carries for 51 yards and his first rushing touchdown of the year, adding two catches for 34 yards as a receiver.

Benjamin Kindel Suffers "Medical Episode" on Team Plane
Pittsburgh Penguins center Benjamin Kindel had a "medical episode" on the team's airplane on Tuesday, the team announced. Pittsburgh played the Utah Mammoth on Monday, and the team plane returned to Salt Lake City International Airport shortly after takeoff when Kindel's medical episode occurred. Fortunately, the 19-year-old is conscious, alert, and in stable condition after being transported to the hospital. Kindel has amassed four points (two goals, two assists) in nine games during his sophomore campaign. Hopefully, he can return to the ice as soon as possible. The Penguins are back in action on Thursday against Florida.

Matt Roy Returning From Six-Game Absence Tuesday
Washington Capitals defenseman Matt Roy (lower body) will return to action on Tuesday against the Los Angeles Kings. After sitting out six games due to a lower-body injury, Roy practiced in full capacity on Monday and was on the first defensive pairing in Tuesday's morning skate. "He's a big part of our team," Capitals head coach Spencer Carbery said. "Plays in a lot of different situations. Logs a lot of minutes. Good leader for our team, so it'll be good to get him back." While Roy's return is great news for the Capitals, his game doesn't translate to fantasy, and managers can ignore him.

Eagles Sign Elijah Mitchell to Practice Squad
The Philadelphia Eagles have signed running back Elijah Mitchell to their practice squad, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. Signing Mitchell was just one of a series of moves the Eagles made in their backfield, as the team also waived running backs Jaydon Blue and Carson Steele (shoulder) from their active roster and Ian Wheeler from their practice squad. Eagles RB1 Saquon Barkley (hamstring) has missed each of the team's last two games, while top reserves Tank Bigsby (core) and Will Shipley (foot) are both on Injured Reserve. As a result, Dameon Pierce was Philly's lead back in Week 6. However, the Eagles' maneuvering on Tuesday could indicate that the team is confident in Barkley returning in Week 7 against the Dallas Cowboys. If Barkley remains sidelined, Mitchell could join Pierce as a potential backfield option against Dallas.

Esa Lindell Ruled Out for One Week
Dallas Stars defenseman Esa Lindell (lower body) has been ruled out for at least one week. The Finnish rearguard will miss his first game of the season on Tuesday against Boston. Across eight outings, Lindell is scoreless, but he's been a vital presence for Dallas at the back, averaging 2.25 blocks per game. Miro Heiskanen and Thomas Harley are the only Stars skaters to see more ice time than Lindell this season. Kyle Capobianco is set to fill in for Lindell on Tuesday, but he doesn't hold any fantasy value.

Connor Brown Set for Season Debut on Tuesday
New Jersey Devils right wing Connor Brown (lower body) will make his season debut in Tuesday's tilt against Colorado. The veteran forward suffered a lower-body injury in training camp and hasn't yet appeared this season. Initially, he wasn't expected to play on Tuesday either. Brown will enter the lineup on the fourth line. He should quickly earn a bigger role if he replicates last year's form. In 2025-26, Brown scored 18 goals in 75 games and matched his career high with 43 points.

Deshaun Watson a Viable QB Streamer to Target on Waivers
Across six games in 2026, Cleveland Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson has completed 63.8% of his pass attempts for 1,174 yards, seven touchdowns, and two interceptions. The 31-year-old has also added some fantasy value with his legs, rushing for 196 yards on 45 attempts. After a relatively hot start to the year, Watson's production has slowed down of late. Over the last two weeks, totaled just 319 passing yards and one touchdown while leading the Cleveland offense to just 25 total points. However, the Browns have a significantly easier matchup coming up in Week 7 against the Tennessee Titans. Through six weeks, Tennessee ranks in the bottom 10 in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (7.5). Given the matchup, Watson could be a solid quarterback streamer for fantasy managers to target on the waiver wire ahead of Week 7.
