Makai Lemon WR | PHI
Eagles' Makai Lemon: Records 19 yards in Week 6 loss
Lemon caught three of six targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 25-14 loss to the Panthers.
The rookie wideout briefly exited Week 6 with an undisclosed injury but quickly returned and ended up running a team-high 45 routes on Tanner McKee's 49 dropbcks. It still didn't result in much production, as Lemon's six targets were a distant third on the team. The first-round wide receiver has just 18 catches for 127 yards and no touchdowns on 28 targets through six games. He can't be trusted as a fantasy starter headed into next Monday night's game against the Cowboys.

Emeka Egbuka WR | TB
Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Finds end zone in OT loss
Egbuka caught seven of 16 targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-19 overtime loss to the Steelers.
It was the first time this season that Egbuka got double-digit targets, but the volume didn't turn into a whole lot of production aside from a two-yard TD in the second quarter. Egbuka still set a new season high in receptions, and he remains the first look for rookie quarterback Jalon Daniels while he fills in for Baker Mayfield (thumb). Egbuka will take a 28-240-2 line on 49 targets into a Week 7 clash with the Panthers.

Bucky Irving RB | TB
Buccaneers' Bucky Irving: Quiet in OT loss to Pittsburgh
Irving carried the ball 19 times for 46 yards and caught two of three targets for three yards in Sunday's 26-19 overtime loss to the Steelers.
It's the first time this season Irving's failed to reach 50 scrimmage yards in a game, and his longest gain went for just 13 yards. The third-year back remains the top option in the Tampa Bay backfield, however, as Kenny Gainwell saw only three touches in Sunday's loss. Irving will look to bounce back in Week 7 against the Panthers.

Brenton Strange TE | JAC
Jaguars' Brenton Strange: Five catches in loss
Strange caught five of seven targets for 44 yards during Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Texans.
Strange finished tied for the team lead in catches with wide receiver Jakobi Meyers while his seven targets were third behind Meyers (10) and Parker Washington (11). The tight end has now reeled in at least five passes in three straight contests, compiling 207 receiving yards on 19 catches in those games. The Jaguars are off in Week 7, so his next chance to continue his momentum will come Nov. 1 against the Colts.

Jalon Daniels QB | TB
Buccaneers' Jalon Daniels: Two picks in OT loss to Pittsburgh
Daniels completed 22 of 43 passes for 164 yards and one touchdown with two interceptions in Sunday's 26-19 overtime loss to the Steelers. He added 39 rushing yards on four carries.
The rookie quarterback struggled in his third career start, but Daniels did connect with Emeka Egbuka on a two-yard score in the second quarter and had Tampa Bay in front 16-3 to begin the fourth. Once Aaron Rodgers began putting points on the board, though, Daniels buckled under the pressure and threw both his INTs. Baker Mayfield (thumb) has yet to return to practice, giving Daniels good odds of making his fourth straight start in Week 7 against the Panthers, but his 3:5 TD:INT since the veteran QB went down doesn't make him a very appealing fantasy option.

Denzel Boston WR | CLE
Browns' Denzel Boston: Logs one catch in Week 6 win
Boston caught one of five targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 13-10 win over the Ravens.
It was easily the rookie wideout's least productive game of the season, but the Browns struggled as a whole to get anything going against Baltimore's pass defense. Deshaun Watson amassed just 164 passing yards. Boston was still second on the team in targets, seeing just one fewer than KC Concepcion. Boston will try to rebound in a softer matchup with the Titans next Sunday.

KaVontae Turpin WR | DAL
Cowboys' KaVontae Turpin: Done for night
Turpin (ribs) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday night's contest versus the Packers, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.
Turpin has been sidelined since the first play of the game, and he will now be forced to miss the remainder of Week 6. In his absence, running back Tyler Goodson has taken over as the team's kick returner while wide receiver Jonathan Mingo has been handling the team's punt returns.
-
Wan'Dale Robinson WR | TEN
Titans' Wan'Dale Robinson: Held to two catches in win
Robinson caught three of seven targets for 22 yards during Sunday's 26-20 win over the Colts.
Robinson finished tied for the team lead in targets with fellow wideout Carnell Tate, but he finished with 22 or fewer receiving yards for the second time in three weeks and the third time overall this season. The wide receiver, along with the rest of Tennessee's offense, is incredibly inconsistent, but he has seen at least five targets in four straight games.
-
DK Metcalf WR | PIT
Steelers' DK Metcalf: Big volume in OT win
Metcalf caught 11 of 15 targets for 93 yards in Sunday's 26-19 overtime win over the Buccaneers.
The targets and catches were season highs for Metcalf, while the veteran WR came up just short of his second 100-yard performance in the last three weeks. Metcalf will take a 30-318-1 line on 52 targets into a Week 7 clash with the Saints in Paris.

Mike Washington Jr. RB | LV
Raiders' Mike Washington: Leads team in rushing in loss
Washington rushed nine times for 43 yards in Sunday's 33-30 loss to the Bills. He added one catch for seven yards on one target.
After touching the ball just two times in Week 5 against New England, Washington ended up leading the Raiders in rushing against Buffalo. His nine carries were just one fewer than Ashton Jeanty, though Jeanty remained a fixture in the passing game, seeing six targets. Washington remains one of the better fantasy bench stashes, as Jeanty continues to play at less than 100 percent health.
