  • Blake Corum RB | LAR

    Rams' Blake Corum: Visits end zone again in Week 6

    Corum produced 42 yards on nine carries and reeled in both of his targets for 18 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 18-16 loss against the Cardinals.

    Corum was only two touches behind the Rams' clear lead RB Kyren Williams, which marked the second-smallest gap between the two in a game this season. Moreover, Corum took advantage of Sunday's slightly expanded workload by reaching the end zone for the second time in as many contests. So far, his 56 touches have equated to 314 yards from scrimmage and two TDs, and he'll aim for another somewhat even split with Williams next Sunday at Las Vegas.

  • Hunter Henry TE | NE

    Patriots' Hunter Henry: Scores again in Week 6 win

    Henry caught four of five targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 26-19 win over the Jets.

    Henry's seven-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter proved to be the game-winning score, putting New England ahead 23-16. After not finding the end zone the first four weeks of the season, Henry has scored in back-to-back games. The veteran tight end has shown no ceiling, as he's been held under 50 yards receiving in five of six contests. He's the definition of a touchdown-or-bust fantasy bet ahead of Thursday's game with the Bears.

  • Malik Nabers WR | NYG

    Giants' Malik Nabers: Huge day despite QB turmoil

    Nabers caught 12 of 15 targets for 165 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Saints.

    Jameis Winston got benched in favor of J.J. McCarthy in the fourth quarter after throwing his second interception of the day, but Nabers stayed busy no matter who was under center for the Giants, leading the team in catches, targets and receiving yards. The third-year wideout topped 100 yards for a third straight game, a stretch in which he's racked up a 29-398-2 line on 42 targets, but a potential full-time switch to McCarthy under center will create a little extra uncertainty for Nabers heading into a Week 7 tilt against the Texans.

  • Bears' Roschon Johnson: Totals 85 yards, TD in Week 6 win

    Johnson rushed 13 times for 51 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-23 win over the Falcons. He caught both of his targets for 34 yards.

    With Kyle Monangai (toe) still sidelined, Johnson played 31 offensive snaps behind D'Andre Swift's 45. Johnson actually led the team in rushing, edging out Swift's 44 yards on the ground. Both running backs found the end zone, with Swift scoring a pair of touchdowns on the ground on 16 carries. With Monangai out the last two weeks, Johnson has totaled 125 yards and a score on 27 combined carries and targets. He's got fantasy playability for as long as Monangai is out.

  • Cowboys' KaVontae Turpin: Injured during opening kickoff

    Turpin (ribs) is questionable to return to Sunday night's matchup against Green Bay, Tommy Yarrish of the Cowboys' official site reports.

    Turpin suffered an injury to his ribs during the game's opening kickoff, and his status for the rest of the contest is now unclear. In Turpin's absence, Dallas will have to find replacements at both kick returning and punt returning vs. the Packers.

  • Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes: No touchdowns in Week 6

    Mahomes completed 23 of 30 passes for 272 yards, no touchdowns and one interception and rushed five times for 16 yards during Sunday's 22-6 win versus the Chargers.

    The Chiefs offense continues to be the Kenneth Walker show, as the No. 1 RB reeled off 100-plus rushing yards for the fourth time in five appearances to begin his tenure with the team. Meanwhile, Mahomes failed to record a touchdown pass for the first time this season after tossing multiple TDs in each of the first four contests. Considering Kansas City's receiving corps is particularly ravaged by injuries at the moment, the offense may continue to lean more on Walker's legs than Mahomes' right arm next Sunday at Seattle.

  • Chargers' Quentin Johnston: Just short of TD on 57-yard catch

    Johnston caught one of three targets for 57 yards in Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Chiefs.

    Johnston needed just one catch to set a season high in receiving yards, but he was tackled at the 1-yard line to keep him without a touchdown this season after consecutive eight-touchdown regular seasons. The Chargers proceeded to back up 11 yards from there and settled for a field goal. Johnston has caught a deep pass in each of the past two games, securing a 44-yard catch in the Week 5 loss to Seattle prior to the 57-yard catch against the Chiefs. The 2023 first-round pick has just eight catches through five appearances heading into LA's Week 7 bye.

  • Justin Herbert QB | LAC

    Chargers' Justin Herbert: Fails to produce TD in Week 6 loss

    Herbert completed 22 of 37 passes for 204 yards, no touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Chiefs. He also rushed five times for 26 yards.

    Herbert continued to struggle but once again got little help from his teammates. Top wide receiver Ladd McConkey (concussion) exited early and the Chargers couldn't generate much on the ground, as Herbert led the team in rushing yards. Herbert was held without a touchdown for the first time this season after throwing exactly one touchdown pass in each of the previous five games. The 0-6 Chargers are the first team to six losses this season, as the Titans notched their first win of the season over the Colts on Sunday to improve to 1-5, while the winless Dolphins were on bye. Herbert will be on bye in Week 7 before his next opportunity to snap this season-opening losing streak in a nominal road game against the Rams in Week 8.

  • Foster Moreau TE | HOU

    Texans' Foster Moreau: Pair of TDs in London victory

    Moreau caught both of his targets for seven yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 34-31 win over the Jaguars in London.

    Moreau made the most of his two opportunities, securing a pair of red-zone scores from one and six yards. Three of Moreau's 11 grabs this season have resulted in red-zone touchdowns. He can mostly be ignored in fantasy football while Dalton Schultz is healthy.

  • Alvin Kamara RB | NO

    Saints' Alvin Kamara: Gets into end zone against Giants

    Kamara carried the ball seven times for 34 yards and caught two of four targets for 35 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Giants.

    The veteran RB left the game in the first half due to an undisclosed injury, but he was cleared to return and connected with Tyler Shough for a 31-yard score in the third quarter. Kamara's seven touches were well behind Kendre Miller's 22, but his 69 scrimmage yards were just one shy of Miller's 70 for the team lead. The duo will split backfield duties for at least one more game in Week 7 against the Steelers, before Travis Etienne (hamstring) will be eligible to come off IR after a Week 8 bye.
