Curtis Samuel gets one touch in Week 6.

The rookie receiver took a jet sweep for eight yards on his only carry of the game. It looked like it would’ve went for a bigger gain, but Eagles linebacker Mychal Kendricks made a great play to catch up and cut him off. Samuel isn’t a reliable fantasy option yet.

Chris Hogan catches one pass in Week 6.

Hogan had a 19-yard reception on four targets against the Jets. He briefly left the game to get checked out for a shot to the rib area, but Hogan returned to the game and should be fine moving forward. Hogan, who was putting up monster numbers from Weeks 2-5, should bounce back against the Falcons next week.

Eagles shut down Jonathan Stewart.

Aside from Cam Newton’s 71 yards rushing, the Panthers could not get anything going against the Eagles. Stewart rushed eight times for -4 yards, as he had no room to run and his long run of the game was for three yards. Over the last two weeks, Stewart had 26 carries for -15 yards, so he’s obviously a risky fantasy option right now.

Tyler Higbee catches one pass in Week 6.

Higbee didn’t gain any yards on his lone reception (three targets). He’ll have some good games but is not a recommended fantasy option in Week 7 against Arizona.

Russell Shepard catches two passes in Week 6.

Shepard was targeted six times in the game, but he only caught the two for 12 yards total. He’s a contributor in real life to Carolina, but Shepard is not a recommended fantasy option.

Austin Seferian-Jenkins stay hot in loss to the Patriots.

Seferian-Jenkins caught eight passes for 46 yards and one touchdown, but he should have had two, as an inexplicable overturn on review took away a second score. To make matters worse, it was ruled a lost fumble instead. Nonetheless, ASJ has become a reliable target for Josh McCown over the past few weeks. He’s a TE1 against Miami next Sunday.

Ed Dickson gets eight targets in Week 6.

Dickson caught four passes for 36 yards against the Eagles, and he might’ve scored on a play-action pass where he was wide open after the fake handoff to the other side of the field, but speedy Eagles linebacker Mychal Kendricks caught him before he could reach the end zone. Dickson will be in the TE1 conversation in his next game against the Bears.
