Lions' Kerby Joseph: Back in action
Joseph (knee) has returned to action in Sunday night's matchup with Kansas City, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.
Joseph was briefly sidelined with a knee injury, but the safety has since made his way back to the field. The 24-year-old has compiled two solo tackles so far in the game.

Cardinals' Chad Ryland: Makes two FGAs in Week 6
Ryland went 2-for-2 on field-goal tries and made all three of his extra-point attempts in Sunday's 31-27 loss to the Colts.
Ryland connected on a 40-yard field goal in the second quarter before later adding a 44-yard make in the fourth. The kicker has now made multiple field goals in five of six games this season, and he'll look to maintain his consistent production in Week 7 versus the Packers.

Lions' Kerby Joseph: Questionable to return Sunday
Joseph (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday night's contest against the Chiefs.
Joseph was limited by a knee injury at practice all week, and although he was cleared to play Sunday, he now appears to have potentially aggravated his knee. In his absence, Thomas Harper stands to see an increase in workload in Detroit's secondary versus Kansas City.

Zay Flowers WR | BAL
Ravens' Zay Flowers: Held to 46 yards
Flowers recorded six receptions on 10 targets for 46 yards in Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Rams. He also lost a fumble.
Flowers was targeted heavily by the combination of Cooper Rush and Tyler Huntley, with no other Baltimore pass catcher earning more than six targets. He had long gains of 18 and 10 yards, though the latter was undone when he fumbled on the same play. Flowers has been mediocre from a fantasy perspective in the absence of Lamar Jackson (hamstring) despite consistent volume in the offense. However, he should be in line for more explosive performances with Jackson expected back in Week 8 following Baltimore's bye.

Rachaad White RB | WAS
Buccaneers' Rachaad White: Another start, another TD
White rushed 17 times for 65 yards and a touchdown while corralling all three of his targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 30-19 win over the 49ers.
White got the nod in place of injured starter Bucky Irving (foot/shoulder) for the second consecutive week, rewarding fantasy managers with his third touchdown over that span. The 26-year-old White finished below four yards per carry in both spot-starts, but his nose for the goal line helped cement another strong fantasy score. No. 3 RB Sean Tucker (6-25-1) remained a distant second in carries behind White, but the former was able to vulture a touchdown from the fill-in starter this time around. The Buccaneers have an extra day off before hosting the Lions on Monday Night Football in Week 7, so White's managers should monitor Irving's availability leading up to that contest before deciding whether to deploy White in their lineups.

Ryan Fitzgerald K | CAR
Panthers' Ryan Fitzgerald: Nails game-winning kick
Fitzgerald went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made all three of his PATs in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Cowboys.
Fitzgerald made field goals from 31 and 55 yards in the first half, before connecting on a game-winning 33-yard field goal as time expired in regulation. The rookie has now gone 10-for-11 on field-goal tries, including 3-for-4 from 50-plus yards, while making 12 of 13 extra-point attempts over six games this season.

Davante Adams WR | LAR
Rams' Davante Adams: Struggles in win
Adams recorded four receptions on nine targets for 39 yards in Sunday's 17-3 win over the Ravens.
Adams served as the Rams' top pass-catcher for most of the game with Puka Nacua (ankle) briefly sidelined and then playing at less than full strength for most of the game. Adams led the team with nine targets, but he converted that into his lowest yardage total of the season. Touchdowns have masked his underwhelming stat lines through the first seven games of the season, as Adams has now been held under 60 receiving yards in four of six contests.
-
Matthew Stafford QB | LAR
Rams' Matthew Stafford: Limited volume in win
Stafford completed 17 of 26 passes for 181 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Sunday's 17-3 win over the Ravens. He also fumbled twice, losing one.
Stafford had a fairly efficient performance, but it was a tough day for the Rams' offense as a whole. They possessed the ball for only 22:05 while also running their offense with a hobbled Puka Nacua (ankle) for nearly three-quarters of the contest. As a result, Stafford failed to throw for multiple touchdowns for the first time since Week 1 and also turned in his lowest yardage total of the season. His outlook for Week 7 against the Jaguars will depend relatively heavily on Nacua's availability.

Chris Boswell K | PIT
Steelers' Chris Boswell: Misses long field goal late
Boswell went 3-for-4 on field-goal attempts and 2-for-2 on extra-point tries during the Steelers' 23-9 win over the Browns on Sunday.
Boswell was responsible for the Steelers' first nine points of the game after connecting on field goals from 44, 50 and 48 yards in the first half. He was brought out late in the fourth quarter for his fourth field-goal try of the game, but his 54-yard attempt fell well short after his planting leg slipped on the turf. Boswell has missed a field goal in two straight games and is 9-for-11 on field-goal tries through the first five games of the regular season.

Mac Jones QB | SF
49ers' Mac Jones: Throws two picks in losing effort
Jones (knee/oblique) completed 27 of 39 pass attempts for 347 yards and two interceptions while rushing five times for 13 yards in Sunday's 30-19 loss to the Buccaneers.
Jones toughed out a pair of injuries and another week of limited practices in order to start for a shorthanded 49ers squad Sunday. The veteran backup was unable to earn his fourth win in as many appearances with San Francisco, but he did produce a season-high 347 passing yards for fantasy managers. The Alabama product is averaging a whopping 313.0 yards per game with a 2:1 TD:INT in place of starter Brock Purdy (toe/shoulder) this season. The latter's status is currently unclear for Week 7, but Jones has certainly played well enough in Purdy's stead to warrant fantasy consideration if he remains under center against the Falcons for Sunday Night Football.
