Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (hamstring) doesn’t have an injury designation and will be suiting up against the Lions in Week 7. Jones has played in four games this year, though he’s technically only been healthy in two of them. Here’s what he’s averaged in those two games: 11 targets, 8.5 receptions, 147 receiving yards, and one touchdown per game. Now he gets to

Atlanta Falcons running back Todd Gurley II is in a good position to put up strong fantasy numbers against the Lions Defense in Week 7. Ironically enough, the former Ram saw his largest workload of the season in Week 6- 23 touches- but had his worst showing of the year, as game script forced the Falcons to take to the air. With at least 15

Atlanta Falcons quarterback Matt Ryan gets a favorable matchup in Week 7 against the Lions. Ryan clearly benefited from the return of Julio Jones (hamstring) last week, as he threw for 371 yards and four scores. While Jones and Calvin Ridley (elbow) were limited at practice, they are both expected to suit up on Sunday. The Lions Defense has allowed the 10th-most fantasy points per

The Jaguars Defense has been absolutely atrocious this year. They have allowed 30-plus points in each of their past five games. This week, the Jaguars face the Los Angeles Chargers, who are only averaging 22 points per game on the season. However, the Chargers are well-rested as they are coming off a bye and rookie quarterback Justin Herbert has helped pick the offense up in

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. has continued to have a steady role in the offense, but the results of late haven’t been especially inspiring. Last week, Shenault had 10 targets, but managed to catch only three passes for 10 yards. At the start of the year, Shenault was seeing a heavy amount of carries out of the backfield. He had seven carries

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole exploded for a season-high 143 receiving yards in Week 6 against the Detroit Lions. It was a bit of an anomaly for Cole, who hadn’t topped 60 yards in a game before last week, but he has been regularly involved in the passing game all year. He has three touchdowns on the year and has earned at least five

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver DJ Chark Jr. has had an extremely strange season so far. In Week 6, he had a team-high and season-high 14 targets, but managed to compile just 45 yards on seven receptions. He’s yet to top 100 yards in a game this year. In Week 7, the Jaguars face the Los Angeles Chargers, who are allowing 273 passing yards per game,

Tennessee Titans tight end Jonnu Smith is not on the team’s injury report for their Week 7 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Smith suffered an ankle injury in Week 6 and there was speculation that his status for Week 7 was in jeopardy. Luckily, he’s been able to recover quickly. Smith caught five passes four 40 yards and two touchdowns in the last game he

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (hamstring) has officially been ruled out for Week 7 against the Carolina Panthers. He will miss his fifth straight game. He is currently dealing with a hamstring injury that developed this past week. Emmanuel Sanders (COVID) was placed on the Reserve-COVID list on Friday and will miss the game as well, making the Saints extremely short-handed at receiver.

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon was expected to have a fairly significant role in the offense this season. However, he has recorded seven receptions since the his six reception performance in the season opener. Last week, Herndon was not targeted once during the loss to the Miami Dolphins. It’s unclear why the Jets are not involving Herndon in their offense. The Buffalo Bills

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Chris Thompson has caught 16 of his 19 targets for 111 yards and a touchdown on the year. He’s been regularly seeing about five targets per game this year, but he isn’t doing a ton with them, averaging 6.9 yards per reception. He’s also barely getting any work in the running game with just six carries for 17 yards on the

New York Jets wide receiver Braxton Berrios put together two strong weeks in the beginning of the season, but hasn’t done much since then. Last week, Berrios caught one of his three targets for 18 yards in the loss to the Miami Dolphins. At this point, Berrios isn’t going to have much fantasy value with the Jets getting their receivers healthy again. He’ll be avoidable

New York Jets wide receiver Jeff Smith saw 20 total targets over a two week period, but was only able to haul in 10 of them. He saw an increased workload with Breshad Perriman (ankle) sidelined. However, last week Perriman returned, which means Smith saw his workload decrease heavily. Smith saw four targets and he only hauled in one of them for eight yards in

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson has struggled a bit in his past two games. He averaged 3.7 yards per carry against the Houston Texans in Week 5 and 2.4 yards per carry against the Detroit Lions in Week 6. Regardless, his workload has been significant enough to make up for the low efficiency. He’s continued to be extremely active in the passing game. He

New York Jets wide receiver Denzel Mims (hamstring) could actually suit up for his NFL debut this week against the Buffalo Bills. The young wideout has been battling a hamstring issue all season, but appears close to getting back on the field. It’s unclear what kind of role he’ll have in this offense. Mims is worth a stash in 14/16 team leagues or deep leagues

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Gardner Minshew II has been struggling lately after his hot start to the season. The Jaguars have lost five straight and head coach Doug Marrone recently said he wouldn’t rule out benching Minshew if his struggles continue. In Week 7, Minshew and the Jaguars face the Los Angeles Chargers, who have allowed 273 passing yards per game this year, the fourth-most in

The Texans Defense has been obliterated all season long, allowing an average of 30.3 points per game on the year. This week, they face a Green Bay Packers team that had scored 30-plus points in four straight games to start the year before stumbling against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week. Expect to see Aaron Rodgers and company come out firing in Week 7, following

New York Jets wide receiver Breshad Perriman (ankle) was able to practice on Thursday without any issues. He returned last week against the Miami Dolphins and finished with four receptions for 62 yards. The fact that Perriman saw eight targets last week is a good sign for his fantasy value. Sadly, there isn’t anyone on this roster that is reliable right now besides Jamison Crowder.

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder (groin) was not able to suit up for Thursday’s practice. It is possible that the team has limited Crowder’s reps because he’s not feeling 100 percent healthy. Crowder has seen 46 targets in four games this season and is the only form of life on this Jets offense. His absence would make it almost impossible for this offense

New York Jets running back La’Mical Perine was expected to have a larger role in the backfield after the departure of Le’Veon Bell. However, veteran Frank Gore has been asked to do most of the heavy lifting in the running game. Head coach Adam Gase did mention that he wants to get Perine more carries against the Buffalo Bills in Week 7. Last week, Perine
