We have four teams off in Week 6 with Cincinnati, Detroit, Miami and Minnesota, and several top receivers will be unavailable to Fantasy managers. That means you can’t start Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams or Justin Jefferson — and that stinks.
Now we got some good news that CeeDee Lamb (quadriceps) practiced fully on Wednesday and AJ Brown (ankle) could return from the injury he suffered in Week 1. We expect to see DeVonta Smith (hamstring), Rashee Rice (hamstring), DJ Moore (shoulder), Ladd McConkey (foot), and Stefon Diggs (hamstring), among others, so keep an eye on the report injury throughout the week.
The biggest receiver news this week was the trade of Marvin Harrison Jr. from Arizona to Houston. He’s not expected to play much in Week 6 against Jacksonville, and I’d put him in the majority of leagues, as you’ll read below.
Kendrick Bourne should benefit from replacing Harrison in Fantasy and Reality, and Bourne should be considered a sleeper in Week 6 against the Rams. As of Wednesday afternoon, Bourne was listed in only 20% of the leagues on CBS Sports, and he deserves to be added in all formats.
There are a lot of moving parts at catcher in Week 6. And we’ve got you covered with all the starts and seats you need right here.
