Robby Anderson caught four passes for 74 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Patriots.

The deep threat is averaging 16.4 yards per catch in 2017, and next Sunday he will take on a Miami team that he scored a 69-yard touchdown against in Week 3. Anderson is worth a look in standard leagues.

LeGarrette Blount gets 14 carries in Week 6.

Blount gained 67 yards, including a long of 18 yards, in the Eagles’ win against the Panthers. He picked up chunk yardage on a number of his carries as he continues to show quick feet and good downhill ability. Maybe he should’ve received more carries given his success with the carries he received, but hopefully he’ll get more in Week 7 against Washington.

Cooper Kupp catches two passes against the Jaguars.

Kupp gained 35 yards on his two receptions, with his long catch going for 22 yards. The rookie receiver is playing well, but there might better FLEX options out there in Week 7 against Arizona—although the Cardinals have given up some big games to non-number one receivers this season, as offenses try to avoid lockdown corner Patrick Peterson.

Carson Wentz throws three touchdowns as Eagles improve to 5-1.

In the Thursday night victory over Carolina, Wentz was 16/30 for 222 yards and three touchdowns while adding six carries for 25 yards on the ground, and he did fumble on a strip sack early in the game. The defense put the offense in great positions and short fields, including with a couple interceptions of Cam Newton (then another one at the end of the game) via pressure and a dropped pass by Jonathan Stewart that was picked. Two of Wentz’s touchdowns were to his favorite target Zach Ertz by the goal line, and his other touchdown was to Nelson Agholor on a slant route against a blitz that Agholor took 24 yards for a touchdown. With a mini bye after the win, the Eagles will face the Redskins on Monday night in Week 7, and Wentz will be in the QB1 conversation.

Jermaine Kearse leads team in receiving on Sunday.

Kearse caught four passes for 79 yards in a 24-17 loss to the Patriots. He’ll face the Dolphins in Week 7 after catching three passes for 42 yards against them in their first meeting this season. Kearse is a solid FLEX option in PPR leagues.

Fozzy Whittaker leaves game with an apparent leg injury.

Whittaker suffered the injury on a carry in the first quarter versus the Eagles. He was carted off but gave a thumbs up and it doesn’t look too serious, but he probably won’t be returning to this game. Whittaker had one carry for -3 yards before leaving.

Troy Niklas scores in Week 6 win.

Niklas caught a 14-yard touchdown in the first quarter, and he finished with two catches for 20 yards. He’s talented, but not currently a fantasy option.
