Jacksonville Jaguars rookie wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. is coming off one of the best games of his first NFL campaign, catching a career-high seven passes for 79 yards against Houston. Shenault has entered the fantasy football starter conversation in deeper leagues and has a plus matchup this week against the Lions, who allow the eighth-most fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers. Shenault’s

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark Jr. (ankle) only had three catches for 16 yards before being forced out of Week 5’s contest against the Houston Texans. But if Chark is able to go against the Lions on Sunday, he’ll be a strong WR2 play against a Lions Defense that allows the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers this season. In his three healthy

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram is off to a slow start in 2020 but has a good matchup versus Washington in Week 6. The Football Team allowed the fifth-most fantasy points to opposing tight ends thus far, including allowing over 100 yards to the Rams tight ends last week. Engram is coming off his worst game of the season where he caught just

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has a good matchup in Week 6 as the sophomore signal caller will look to find the end zone for the first time since the season opener. Jones threw two touchdowns versus Pittsburgh in Week 1, but has struggled mightily since then as he has played himself out of fantasy consideration in one-quarterback leagues. Jones has eight turnovers in

The Baltimore Ravens Defense has been one of the top units in the league through the first five games of the season and they draw a beautiful Week 6 matchup against a struggling Philadelphia Eagles offense. Philadelphia quarterback Carson Wentz has not played well this season, throwing nine interceptions and losing a fumble in five games. The Eagles offensive line has also been a problem,

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has scored three touchdowns over his past two games and has a good shot at extending the streak in Week 6 against a Philadelphia Eagles Defense that has allowed five touchdowns to tight ends in 2020. Andrews finds himself in an excellent spot against a Philadelphia defense that is getting demolished by enemy tight ends this season, allowing the

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown is coming off his best outing of the season and will look to stay hot in Week 6 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Brown finished Week 5 with six catches for 77 yards and a score last week, his first touchdown of the 2020 season. He draws an excellent matchup this weekend against a Philadelphia pass defense that ranks just

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II is off to a slow start in the 2020 season, having rushed for just 205 yards and two touchdowns through five games. After an excellent 2019 campaign, the team’s insistence on using a three-man committee in the backfield has capped Ingram’s weekly output, as he has just three receptions on the year. After failing to take advantage of

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson will face off against the Philadelphia Eagles on the road in Week 6. Jackson is off to a slow start, by his own lofty standards, having rushed for just 238 yards and one touchdown through five games. He has a chance to post a big game against a Philly defense that is decent against the run and weak against the

Denver Broncos running back Melvin Gordon III (illness) did not travel with the team to New England for their Week 6 matchup against the Patriots. Gordon was sent home from practice on Friday due to an illness which will prevent him from suiting up Sunday. Head coach Vic Fangio has told reporters that the illness is not COVID-19 related. Gordon’s absence is a significant loss

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (illness) passed his second COVID-19 test and has been cleared to return to the team. Beckham was sent home from practice on Thursday with an illness and had to test negative for two straight days before he was able to rejoin the team, per the NFL’s 2020 COVID-19 testing protocols. Beckham spent Thursday and Friday working out on

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins is slowly beginning to emerge as one of this season’s most promising fantasy options. The rookie had a slow start to the year but turned on the switch against the Eagles at the end of September by hauling in five grabs for 40 yards and two touchdowns. Since then, the 21-year-old has received 15 looks from fellow rookie Joe

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd will be entering Week 6 coming off a poor showing against the Ravens, where he finished with just four catches for 42 yards. Heading into the battle against Baltimore last weekend, the 25-year-old had an impressive streak of logging at least seven catches throughout his previous three outings, including racking up a total of 21 targets during that span.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green continues to be plagued by underwhelming performances, catching only 14 of his 34 targets for a meager 119 yards thus far in 2020. Although his ceiling is high based on years of efficiency and dominance throughout the league, his fantasy stock as a bonafide starting option may be lower than ever, especially with the stellar play of Tyler Boyd

The Denver Broncos Defense caught a tough break with their game against the New England Patriots moving from Week 5 to Week 6 due to positive COVID-19 tests in the Patriots organization. If the game had been played last Monday, it’s likely that New England would’ve been without quarterback Cam Newton, who missed the prior week after testing positive for the virus. Linebacker Jeremiah Attaochu

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon is running out of time to turn his season around before it’s going to be considered a disappointment for fantasy owners. After the 24-year-old had an impressive Week 4 against the Jaguars that included three total trips to the end zone, many thought that he had turned the corner toward reclaiming his status as one of the most promising

Green Bay Packers Pro Bowl defensive tackle Kenny Clark (groin) is set to return in Week 6 against the Buccaneers after being out since he suffered a groin injury in the season-opener. Cornerback Kevin King (quadriceps), who was injured in Week 4, will be a game-time decision. Clark’s return is good news for a Packers Defense that has allowed 4.8 yards per carry (25th in

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will attempt to get back on track against Indianapolis on Sunday. After his first dismal outing of the season, which came against the Ravens last weekend, the rookie signal-caller will next have the misfortune of going up against a Colts Defense that has given up the least amount of fantasy points to his position so far during the 2020 campaign.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense faces their toughest test yet in Week 6. They’ll go up against a red-hot Aaron Rodgers and the league’s highest-scoring offense, the Green Bay Packers. Fantasy managers who play in leagues that penalize defenses for points scored will want to avoid Tampa Bay this week. Green Bay has also had a top-five offensive line, which doesn’t bode well for the

Tampa Bay Buccaneers kicker Ryan Succop faces a tough matchup in Week 6 against the Green Bay Packers. Succop took advantage of a favorable matchup against the Bears last week, making all four field-goals and an extra-point. It won’t be so easy this week, as the Packers have allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing kickers. Succop could potentially have a safe floor
