  • Deshaun Watson QB | CLE

    Browns' Deshaun Watson: Compiles 193 scrimmage yards in win

    Watson completed 16 of 26 passes for 164 yards with no touchdowns or interceptions and added eight carries for 29 yards in the Browns' 13-10 win over the Ravens on Sunday.

    As Watson's numbers suggest, he didn't do anything of particular note as either a passer or runner, but the veteran signal-caller did avoid turnovers despite taking five sacks. That alone helped keep Cleveland in a game in which the Browns faced a 10-0 halftime deficit, and he was then able to lead fourth-quarter touchdown and field-goal drives that completed the comeback. Watson has surprisingly helped the Browns to a 4-2 record, and he's provided a solid 7:2 TD:INT and 196 rushing yards along the way. He'll look to carry over the momentum into a Week 7 road clash with the Titans on Sunday.

  • Brock Bowers TE | LV

    Raiders' Brock Bowers: Outshined by Mayer in loss

    Bowers brought in four of nine targets for 70 yards in the Raiders' 33-30 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

    Bowers came on in the second half as the Raiders tried to mount a comeback, but he saw fellow tight end Michael Mayer outpace him by three receptions and 25 receiving yards on the same number of targets. Bowers' reception, receiving yardage and target totals were all season lows, underscoring how significant his production had been over his first three games of the campaign. Bowers should be heavily involved again in a Week 7 home showdown against the Rams on Sunday.

  • Raiders' Ashton Jeanty: Held in check on ground Sunday

    Jeanty rushed 10 times for 22 yards and a touchdown and brought in four of six targets for 36 yards in the Raiders' 33-30 loss to the Bills on Sunday.

    Jeanty's inefficient rushing line underscores how Buffalo's stout run defense essentially shut him down, but the 2025 first-round pick did manage to record a one-yard touchdown run, his first of the season, with 4:27 remaining in the first quarter. The Bills had also opened up a 10-point lead going into the final period, so Jeanty lost out on some work to Mike Washington as the Raiders went to more of a pass-centric approach. Jeanty has now been under 30 rushing yards in two straight games, but his work as a receiver helps prop up his fantasy floor overall. Jeanty has collected 313 rushing yards and 251 receiving yards along with three total touchdowns going into a Week 7 home matchup against the Rams on Sunday.

  • Josh Allen QB | BUF

    Bills' Josh Allen: Solid numbers in high-scoring win

    Allen completed 23 of 33 passes for 255 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions and rushed five times for one yard in the Bills' 33-30 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

    Allen once again operated without DJ Moore (shoulder), although he did have another deep threat in Joshua Palmer back from his own shoulder issue. The one-time MVP signal-caller spread the ball around to eight different targets, and Allen ultimately lost Dalton Kincaid to a rib injury in the second half as well. Allen's passing numbers haven't been particularly impressive since a 334-yard showing against the Texans back in Week 1 as first-year head coach Joe Brady runs a balanced attack, but the prolific quarterback still has 1,504 passing yards with a 9:4 TD:INT and another 240 rushing yards and eight additional scores going into a Week 8 home showdown with the Ravens on Sunday, Nov. 1, following a Week 7 bye.

  • James Cook III RB | BUF

    Bills' James Cook: Accrues 153 total yards in win

    Cook rushed 22 times for 95 yards and a touchdown and brought in all three targets for 58 yards in the Bills' 33-30 win over the Raiders on Sunday.

    Cook put together productive runs throughout the afternoon, and he added a 26-yard reception as part of an impressive day as a pass catcher. The standout running back extended his streak of games with at least one rushing touchdown to five as well, crossing the goal line from three yards out with 4:43 remaining in the contest. Cook has mustered between 75 and 154 rushing yards in the last five games after opening the season with a modest 57-yard showing on the ground against the Texans, and he's already amassed 716 scrimmage yards over six games going into a Week 8 home showdown on Sunday, Nov. 1, against the Ravens following a Week 7 bye.

  • DeVonta Smith WR | PHI

    Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Looks good in return

    Smith brought in seven of 14 targets for 75 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 25-14 loss to the Panthers on Sunday.

    Smith had an eventful day in his return from a two-game absence, leading the Eagles in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon. Smith also worked around getting briefly shaken up following a long incompletion where he appeared to have taken a blow to the chest area, and he added his second touchdown reception of the campaign via a 19-yard grab early in the fourth quarter. Smith displayed solid chemistry with fill-in signal-caller Tanner McKee, certainly a welcome development considering Jalen Hurts (IR, calf) is sidelined indefinitely.

  • Panthers' Tetairoa McMillan: Solid production with six catches

    McMillan secured six of nine targets for 86 yards in the Panthers' 25-14 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

    McMillan tied for the team lead in receptions with Jalen Coker while finishing second to his talented position mate in receiving yards and targets. The 2025 first-round pick was coming off a career-best 14-catch, 192-yard performance that also included two touchdowns against the Lions back in Week 4, and he's gone for at least 75 receiving yards in four of his first five games of the campaign as a Week 7 home divisional showdown against the Buccaneers approaches.

  • Chuba Hubbard RB | CAR

    Panthers' Chuba Hubbard: Thrives with massive workload in win

    Hubbard rushed 28 times for 120 yards and a touchdown and brought in one of two targets for one yard in the Panthers' 25-14 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

    Hubbard thoroughly dominated the Panthers' ground attack with AJ Dillon (ankle) sidelined and finished with his highest rushing workload of the campaign. Hubbard also hit the 120-yard mark on the ground for the second straight contest, and he added his fourth rush TD on a one-yard run early in the fourth quarter. After combining for 102 rushing yards in his first two games of the season, Hubbard has run for 324 yards at 4.8 yards per carry and added a 6-36-0 receiving line over the subsequent trio of contests heading into a Week 7 home divisional clash with the Buccaneers on Sunday.

  • Drake London WR | ATL

    Falcons' Drake London: Modest production on 10 targets

    London brought in four of 10 targets for 62 yards in the Falcons' 31-23 loss to the Bears on Sunday.

    London finished second in both receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon for the Falcons, while also setting the pace in targets. The star wideout couldn't quite capitalize on a Bears defense that had proven beatable at times over the first five games of the season, and London ultimately equaled his second-lowest catch total of the campaign despite also tying his second-highest target tally. Despite the inefficient performance, London will take a formidable 31-550-0 line on 47 targets into a Week 7 home showdown with the 49ers on Sunday.

  • Caleb Williams QB | CHI

    Bears' Caleb Williams: Spectacular in return from injury

    Williams completed 30 of 36 passes for 305 yards with a touchdown and no interceptions while adding four rushes for three yards in the Bears' 31-23 win over the Falcons on Sunday. He also fumbled once but recovered.

    Making his return from a three-game absence due to a hamstring injury, Williams opened the game looking like he hadn't missed a beat. The 2024 first overall pick completed his first 12 passes and didn't misfire much after that point while connecting with eight different targets overall. Williams hit Colston Loveland for his one touchdown pass and just narrowly missed a second scoring connection with the second-year tight end during a prolific afternoon overall. Williams looks back to full health and will get a quick opportunity to build on Sunday's stellar numbers in a Week 7 home matchup against the Patriots next Sunday.
