A.J. Brown

NE Wide Receiver #1

Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players

NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reports A.J. Brown (ankle) is expected to play “a good amount” in Week 6 against the Jets.

Brown was activated from injured reserve this week and will suit up versus the Jets. It was reasonable to expect some sort of snap count in his first game back, but it sounds like Brown will be a full-go after looking great in practice this week. In desperate need of a true WR1 to step up, the Pats should pepper Brown with targets this week. He is back in the fantasy WR2 ranks after the lengthy absence.
Dan Quinn

WAS Head Coach

NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo reports Commanders owner Josh Harris “would love” for Dan Quinn to remain the team’s head coach.

Garafolo says this as if Harris is simply a bystander watching Quinn bumble his way through another season. Garafolo did add that “anything is on the table” if the Commanders get blown out by the 49ers on national television on Monday. They are currently 7.5-point underdogs on most sportsbooks. With a bye week on deck after San Francisco, the Commanders could see Week 7 as the best time to pull the plug on Quinn.
Kellen Moore

NO Head Coach

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that “no change is imminent” at head coach for the Saints.

Saints owner Gayle Benson said earlier this week that the team’s 1-4 record is “not acceptable.” Rapoport noted that she came to practice in a “show of support” for Moore and company, though it felt equally like a show of force from the outside. Rapsheet also stressed several times that the team needs to start winning games. While a change at head coach might not happen next week, it does sound like Moore won’t survive the season if things don’t turn around soon.
Najee Harris

NYG Running Back #23

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Najee Harris is “set to start” for the Giants in Week 6 against the Saints.

Fowler was adding to a report from Jordan Raanan, who said Harris is “likely to have a larger role with Cam Skattebo downgraded but still part of the mix after the fumbles.” Skattebo has indeed struggled with fumbles, putting the ball on the ground four times this year. No running back has more fumbles, and Skattebo’s most recent blunder cost the Giants a shot at an overtime win versus the Commanders last week. They instead settled for a tie. Even if Skattebo winds up leading the team in carries this week, he was only valuable for fantasy managers because of his high-volume role. With that out the window, Skattebo is buried in the RB3 ranks for Week 6.
Rico Dowdle

PIT Running Back #13

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Rico Dowdle (toe) is expected to play in Week 6 against the Bucs.

Dowdle has been out since Week 2 because of the toe issue. In the meantime, Jaylen Warren has looked like one of the league’s most dynamic backs on the ground and through the air. While his gargantuan workload will return to normal with Dowdle back, Warren should still operate as the team’s unquestioned RB1. Dowdle is just a mid-range FLEX play for his first game back.
Joey Porter

DAL Cornerback #25

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler Jr. (ankle) is expected to play in Week 6 against the Packers.

JPJ was downgraded to a limited participant in Friday before being hit with the questionable tag, causing some concern about his Week 6 availability. It looks like the light practice session may have been a precaution. The newly-minted Cowboys should be good to go versus Green Bay.
Tyler Warren

IND Tight End #84

ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports Tyler Warren (groin) is a game-time decisions for Week 6 against the Titans.

Warren suffered the groin injury during Friday’s practice. He was added to the injury report and listed as questionable for Week 6. Of note, Warren also dealt with a groin injury late in training camp, though he was ready to go for Week 1 and had not appeared on the injury report again until this week. Even if he does suit up, Warren will be at far less than 100 percent. Expect Josh Downs and Keenan Allen to take on more work whether or not Warren is active.
Tyler Shough

NO Quarterback #6

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports Tyler Shough has two broken bones in his non-throwing hand.

Both Shough and Kellen Moore have given non-answers when asked about the quarterback’s left hand. Per Schefter, the injury could take a couple of months to heal, but it will not cost him any playing time. Shough injured his hand versus the Falcons in Week 4 and wore a protective glove in Week 5. He is coming off his two worst games of the year, though we don’t suspect the hand is to blame. Things get much easier this week with the Giants on tap. Shough will get another shot at a QB1 finish in Week 6.
Joe Alt

LAC Tackle #76

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Joe Alt (neck) is expected to “ramp up” this week.

Pre Rapoport, Alt received good news after seeing a specialist for his neck injury earlier this week. Alt missed last week’s game with the issue and has already been ruled out for Week 6, but this is still a positive turn of events, all things considered. With a Week 7 bye on deck, Alt could be back as soon as the following week when the Bolts take on the Rams.
Pat Freiermuth

PIT Tight End #88

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports the Steelers are “optimistic” Pat Freiermuth (calf) will play in Week 6 against the Bucs.

Freiermuth was added to the injury report on Saturday. The team listed him as questionable for Week 6. A last-minute addition to the injury report is never a good sign, so we wouldn’t be surprised if his snaps are limited even if he is active. On the other hand, with Roman Wilson and Michael Pittman out, the Steelers may have no choice but to play a banged-up Muth more than expected. He will be a high-risk TE2 if active.
