Fantasy Football Matchup Outlooks
Below are some fantasy football outlooks written by our NFL team here at RotoBaller, bringing you their fantasy football analysis and advice on which players to consider starting in Week 7:
Jameson Williams, WR, Detroit Lions
Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams caught six of his seven targets for 66 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 6 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. He led the team in receiving yards and put an end to what had been a frustrating few weeks for the deep threat. Over the last three weeks, Williams had failed to surpass 6.5 fantasy points (PPR) in a single game.
He scored nearly triple that number on Sunday night, giving him momentum ahead of a Week 7 clash with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He's a high-ceiling, low-floor WR3/flex every week.
Quentin Johnson, WR, Los Angeles Chargers
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston (hamstring) upgraded to a full practice on Thursday after he was listed as limited on Wednesday, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. Johnston was unable to play in the team's Week 6 win over the Miami Dolphins, but he's trending toward returning a week later to face the Indianapolis Colts now that he has returned to a full practice participant.
That would be bad news for both Keenan Allen and Ladd McConkey in L.A.'s passing attack. Johnston cooled off in Week 5, but he still leads the Bolts in receiving yards (377) and touchdowns (four) on 26 receptions in his five games played. The former first-rounder has really taken the next step in his development in 2025 and has really improved his chemistry with quarterback Justin Herbert deep down the field. If Johnston returns on Sunday, he'll be an upside WR3 play in fantasy.
Alvin Kamara, RB, New Orleans Saints
New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) returned to practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's practice, per ESPN's Katherine Terrell. Terrell previously reported that the team plans to hold Kamara out of Wednesday practices for the time being as part of a maintenance plan for his ankle. The 30-year-old should be on track to play in Week 7 against the Chicago Bears.
Kamara has recorded 436 yards from scrimmage and one touchdown on 105 total touches through six games this season. He has not topped 80 scrimmage yards in a game since Week 2 and has not scored a touchdown since Week 1. Kamara profiles as a low-end fantasy RB2/high-end flex option in Week 7, even in a favorable matchup on paper against the Chicago Bears.
Chris Olave, WR, New Orleans Saints
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave (hip) was upgraded to a full participant in Thursday's practice after being limited the day before, putting him on track to play Sunday against the Chicago Bears. The third-year wideout has maintained WR1 status in New Orleans with a commanding 32.3% target share, turning 39 receptions into 342 yards and a touchdown through six games.
While quarterback Spencer Rattler has struggled with consistency, Olave continues to command double-digit targets nearly every week. His 60.9% catch rate highlights some inefficiency in the Saints' passing attack, but the sheer volume keeps Olave firmly in must-start territory for fantasy managers. Against a Bears defense allowing over 213 passing yards per game, Olave should remain the focal point of the Saints' offense and carries a solid WR2 floor with WR1 upside if the offense finds rhythm.
Jakobi Meyers, WR, Las Vegas Raiders
Updating a previous report, Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee, toe) is not participating in practice on Thursday despite offensive coordinator Chip Kelly saying he expected him to, according to Ryan McFadden of ESPN. Despite playing 90% of the offensive snaps in the Week 6 win over the Tennessee Titans, Meyers has missed both practices so far this week, putting him in danger of missing the Week 7 game this Sunday against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs.
The 28-year-old will need to return to practice on Friday to have a shot at being active this weekend. With tight end Brock Bowers (knee) expected to miss a third straight game, the Raiders would be missing their top two pass-catchers if Meyers is also unavailable. Receiver Tre Tucker and tight end Michael Mayer could be heavily targeted. Meyers hasn't shown much chemistry with quarterback Geno Smith this year and did not take advantage of Bowers missing the last two weeks.
