Don't let injuries and underperforming players bring you down! Every week is a new challenge in fantasy football, and our RotoBaller analysts are back to break down potential sleepers and busts ahead of the remaining Week 6 games. We do this every week! The goal is to give you the confidence you need to make […]

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quad) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the New England Patriots, according to Adam Schefter. Hall injured his quadriceps late in Week 3 against Detroit and will now miss his third consecutive game. Braelon Allen has taken full advantage of the opportunity, rushing for […]

Hey RotoBallers! With many breakout players and high-end handcuffs on the waiver wire, managers may need to cut ties with a non-producing player whose stock has dropped to improve their roster. While it may be difficult to drop these once-proven assets, they have not contributed much to your roster, and managers looking to get ahead […]

Washington Commanders running back Rachaad White (shoulder) played 60% of the offensive snaps in his Week 5 return against the New York Giants, but that playing time translated into just 20 yards from scrimmage. He managed 18 yards on seven carries and caught his only target for two yards, while Jacory Croskey-Merritt rushed for 82 […]

Five weeks in, the numbers have started to separate the real roles from the ones that were just a good Sunday. Week 6 still has a clear split on the board. Buffalo at Las Vegas sits near 53.5 total, Dallas at Green Bay is priced around 52.5, and both Arizona-Rams and the Monday night Commanders-49ers […]

After a strong start to the 2026 season, Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum has regressed significantly. In the first two games, Corum had 22 carries for 131 yards, outperforming starter Kyren Williams in efficiency. Since Week 3, he has not had more than six carries in a game and has averaged just three […]

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara has been a non-factor in fantasy despite the injury to starting back Travis Etienne Jr. In four games this season, Kamara has had 28 carries for 86 yards and two touchdowns, plus 13 receptions for 41 yards. He is on pace for his lowest totals in attempts (7.0), […]

Welcome, RotoBallers, to our weekly Start 'em and Sit 'em article! This Week 6 matchups analysis and fantasy football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em piece will hopefully help you make winning lineup decisions every week of the fantasy season.  Week 5 saw some big-time performances that we called in this very article last week.

Hey RotoBallers! Welcome to the sixth edition of our High-Upside Bench Stashes series. With another slate of NFL action set to kick off over the weekend, it's time for another deep dive on the waiver wire to pick up some sneaky stash targets. This week's theme is IR stashes. Even though they may be on […]

Five weeks into the 2026 NFL season, we're starting to see which fantasy players are reliable for our lineups and which ones require us to make tough choices. Injuries are changing offenses across the league, bye weeks are making lineup decisions more difficult, and some big-name players are becoming increasingly hard to trust. This year's […]

At RotoBaller HQ, we are back with more updated waiver advice. Fantasy managers will not only have to navigate through injuries but will have to deal with bye weeks as well. The Bengals, Dolphins, Vikings, and Lions are on the bye. Most leagues run their waiver wire on Tuesday, but it's always a good idea […]

Welcome to Week 6 of our fantasy football breakout candidate piece for the 2026 NFL season. Each week, we'll point you to emerging players who aren't just top pickups but could see their fantasy values surge by the end of the weekend. All players listed in this article are rostered in less than 50% of […]

As if injuries weren’t a big enough obstacle course for fantasy managers to deal with, the byes are in full effect. This week, not only are four teams on bye, but some high-powered offenses will be sidelined. The Bengals, Lions, Vikings, and Dolphins are all off this week. While you may not love the look […]

Let's go RotoBallers! I'm coming off my best DFS week, which netted a four-figure win and another $555 millionaire satellite ticket. I want to keep it rolling in Week 6, and I hope everyone's with me! We have some key players on bye this week, including all the Lions, Bengals, and Vikings, so builds are... […]

Although Joe Burrow, Jared Goff, Justin Jefferson, Jahmyr Gibbs, and Ja’Marr Chase are all on a bye, we can rejoice that Bryce Young is back in our player pool. How did we ever survive a week without the chosen one? My son is a massive Panthers fan, so I may have written this paragraph just... […]

We have another 12 games on the main slate this week, and there are some big ones. LSU and Mississippi State have an implied total north of 60 points. Ole Miss and Missouri are close to that number. Seven more teams have an implied total of 30 or higher. Hitting the right stack is going […]

Believe it or not, we've got five games in the history books, and the halfway mark of many fantasy football seasons is fast approaching as we preview Week 6 and beyond with an updated rest-of-season rankings sheet. Winners are starting to get comfortable (but not complacent!), and troubled teams are desperate for a win or […]

Welcome to Week 6 of fantasy football, RotoBallers. To accompany the start of another week of NFL action, I have a fresh edition of Warning Signals. Here, I focus my attention on players who I worry could play spoiler for upcoming fantasy matchups. Sometimes warning signals can be seen when reflecting on a recent performance. […]

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins churned out 41 yards and a touchdown on 17 rushes in his team's 17-14 win over the Seattle Seahawks. He also caught all three of his targets for a gain of five yards. Dobbins got the Broncos on the board early in the second quarter with a four-yard touchdown. […]

Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson rushed for 52 yards on 14 carries in his team's 17-14 loss to the Denver Broncos on the road. He failed to bring in his lone target. Wilson was riding a two-game touchdown streak into Week 6, but couldn't come through again for fantasy managers in what was a […]

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (foot) logged another full practice Thursday, per ESPN's Ryan McFadden. Jeanty has been battling foot and ankle issues since training camp, but it appears he is trending toward being active for the Raiders' Week 6 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The 22-year-old has been highly inefficient as a […]

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (hamstring) was officially a non-participant in practice for the second straight day on Thursday. Barkley tweaked his hamstring in the Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Rams and sat out of Sunday's tie to the division-rival New York Giants as a result. With the 29-year-old not yet returning […]

Updating a previous report, Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has filed a civil suit seeking a permanent injunction restricting access to records from his May 23 altercation with a woman at his home, according to Rob Demovsky of ESPN. Jacobs' attorneys said that their client's filing "is an effort to assist" the woman […]

Houston Texans running back David Montgomery (groin) will not travel with the team to London and has been ruled out for the Week 6 contest on Sunday against the division-rival Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The 29-year-old was expected to miss time after injuring his groin early in the Week 5 win […]

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears (knee) went from being a limited participant in practice on Wednesday to sitting out on Thursday due to a knee injury. Midweek downgrades typically are not good signs, and the 25-year-old is now trending in the wrong direction to play in Week 6 against the division-rival Indianapolis Colts on […]

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai (toe, thumb) did not practice on Thursday, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. Monangai is battling a thumb injury and turf toe, which caused him to miss Chicago's Week 5 loss to the Green Bay Packers and could hold him out of his team's Week 6 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. […]

We've got a game from the American, a game in the Sun Belt that may soon contain teams from the American, and a low-key good Big Ten matchup for our Friday DraftKings slate. What more can we ask for? There are no later games on our Friday slate this week, which is unusual for how […]

Arizona Cardinals rookie first-round running back Jeremiyah Love (ankle) was absent from his team's practice for the second straight day on Thursday, per Theo Mackie of The Arizona Republic. Love is battling a lingering ankle issue. While he's played through the injury to this point, it appears the team could be trending toward holding him […]

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rico Dowdle (toe) practiced in full on Thursday, per Mike DeFabo of The Athletic. Dowdle has been sidelined since Week 2 with a toe injury, but it appears he could be trending toward returning in Week 6 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Before suffering the injury, Dowdle recorded 65 yards from […]

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (foot) told reporters Thursday that he feels great and is feeling better physically than at any previous point this season, according to Ryan McFadden. The second-year back has battled an ankle injury since August and more recently developed a foot issue that left him questionable for Sunday's loss […]
