Shavers played 28 of the Bills' 57 snaps on offense and finished with three catches for 27 yards on five targets in Monday's 24-14 loss to the Falcons.

With two pass catchers in Curtis Samuel (neck/ribs) and Dalton Kincaid (oblique) inactive for the Week 6 contest and with another in Joshua Palmer (ankle) exiting the contest early, Shavers benefited from an expanded profile in the Buffalo offense. The third-year wideout out of San Diego State hadn't taken the field for more than one-third of Buffalo's offensive plays in any of the first five weeks and drew a combined five targets over that stretch, but he logged nearly half of the snaps Monday and finished one behind Keon Coleman for the team lead in targets. Despite the modest spike in production, Shavers is likely to see his role get downsized if Buffalo is able to reclaim some health in its pass-catching corps coming out of a Week 7 bye.

Hawes went without a target while playing 31 of the Bills' 57 snaps on offense in Monday's 24-14 loss to the Falcons.

With fellow tight end Dalton Kincaid (oblique) inactive for the first time in 2025, Hawes played a season-high 54 percent of the Bills' offensive snaps. However, the uptick in playing time didn't translate to any looks in the passing game for Hawes, with Dawson Knox drawing both of the targets on the night among Buffalo tight ends. Through his first six games, Hawes has produced a 4-54-1 receiving line on four targets.

Trautman failed to record a single target in Sunday's 13-11 win over the Jets.

Trautman was a complete nonfactor against the Jets, as the veteran was not involved in the Broncos' offensive attack Sunday. The 28-year-old played 23 of Denver's 60 offensive snaps, behind fellow tight end Evan Engram (28) and tied with teammate Nate Adkins. Due to his usage as a blocker, Trautman offers very little in the way of fantasy production most weeks. The sixth-year tight end should be ignored for fantasy purposes when the Broncos host the Giants in Week 7.

Pinnock played two snaps on special teams and none on defense in Sunday's 30-19 loss to the Buccaneers.

Through the first five weeks of the season, Pinnock had played every defensive snap for the 49ers, accruing 17 tackles along the way. The 49ers opted to shake up their defensive backfield for Week 6, however, with Pinnock falling out of the mix entirely while Ji'Ayir Brown moved into a full-time role alongside rookie Marques Sigle, who split snaps with Malik Mustapha at the other safety spot. Pinnock thus appears to be the 49ers' No. 4 safety at the moment, making him unlikely to receive meaningful playing time unless one or two of Brown, Sigle and Mustapha is out with an injury.

Gordon recorded two tackles and recovered a fumble in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.

Gordon recorded limited stats in his return from a hamstring injury, but he should become more productive as he rounds back into form. For now, he's a watch list IDP option.

Brisker tallied three tackles and intercepted a pass in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.

Brisker has at least three tackles in every contest and now has one interception, maintaining IDP depth value with occasional spike-week potential.

Robinson posted three tackles and 0.5 sacks in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.

Robinson has recorded 1.5 sacks over five games while averaging 1.8 stops, making him a low-floor IDP when he doesn't generate a sack.

Dexter produced five tackles and 1.5 sacks in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.

Dexter reached the sack column for the first time since Week 1 while also breaking a streak of three games with one tackle. He's a sack-dependent IDP at defensive tackle.

Edwards registered nine tackles in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.

Edwards returned after missing time with a hamstring injury, and he remains a dependable weekly IDP starter.

Edmunds recorded 13 tackles in the Bears' 25-24 win over the Commanders on Monday.

Edmunds has at least 11 tackles over his last three contests after a moderate start to the season, and he's rounding into elite IDP territory.
