Elijah McGuire rushed 10 times for 22 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Patriots.

The rookie did not catch a pass, and those who were relying on him must have been disappointed to see the Jets throw it 47 times compared to 20 rushing attempts by the running backs. McGuire will be a high-risk FLEX option against the Dolphins in Week 7.

Drew Brees and the Saints improve to 3-2.

Because of strong defense that scored two touchdowns of their own, Brees didn’t have to put up huge numbers against the Lions. He was 21/31 for 186 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in the Week 6 victory, though the one interception was on a ball where receiver Michael Thomas was out-battled and Darius Slay took the ball away for the turnover. Brees might carve up the Packers next week, though the game is at Green Bay.

Rex Burkhead (ribs) was limited in practice today.

Burkhead still isn’t fully participating, so his status for Sunday might not be locked in yet. We’ll see how he’s listed on the injury report tomorrow.

Ty Montgomery (ribs) was a full participant in practice today.

Hes certainly on track after missing last week’s game against the Cowboys. Aaron Jones’ performance might have Montgomery itching to get back out there, too. We’ll update you throughout the week, but expect Montgomery to be back on Sunday versus the Vikings.

Mack Brown gets three carries in Week 6.

Brown gained 17 yards on his three attempts and didn’t have any receptions. He’s a handcuff to Todd Gurley, who’s been dominating work in the backfield.

Martellus Bennett caught two passes for 22 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Vikings.

With Aaron Rodgers potentially done for the season with a broken collarbone, Bennett can probably be safely dropped in all leagues for those who were still holding onto him with faint hope of a turnaround. He has just 216 scoreless yards in 2017.

Rob Gronkowski (thigh) was limited in practice today.

He’s headed in the right direction after not participating in practice yesterday. Hopefully Gronk can be a full participant tomorrow, but he’s expected to be ready for Sunday either way.
