Jakeem Grant gets on target in Dolphins’ win.

Grant, who was a starter with DeVante Parker (ankle) out, had a four-yard reception against Atlanta. Even if Parker misses another game, Grant shouldn’t be in most fantasy lineups.

Stephen Anderson skies for 42-yard catch in loss to the Chiefs.

He finished with two catches for 63 yards, which led the team. Anderson gets a great matchup against the Browns in Week 6, but he’s not a recommended fantasy option as he splits time with Ryan Griffin.

Sammie Coates held to one catch in Week 6 loss.

It went for 11 yards. Coates should be on the waiver wire in redraft leagues, but he’s a hold in dynasty leagues. It would be interesting to see what he could do as a starter in a good offense.

DeAndre Hopkins scores three times in loss to the Chiefs.

Hopkins now has five scores in as many games to start the season. Against the Chiefs, he finished with four receptions for 52 yards, with the touchdowns coming from six, 34, and one yard out. Deshaun Watson is undoubtedly the best quarterback that the talented receiver has ever played with, and he looks like an every-week WR1 again. Hopkins gets the Browns next.

Joe Flacco struggles as Ravens lose to Bears in overtime.

Flacco was 24/41 for 180 yards, zero touchdowns, and two interceptions. Through six games, the former Super Bowl MVP has thrown for just 1,003 yards with a 4:8 touchdown-interception ratio. While he’s likely either lacking in confidence or health, Baltimore hasn’t done a great job with play calling to help Flacco out, as both Alex Collins and Javorius Allen were doing a nice job with a combined 123 yards on 25 carries on Sunday, but the Ravens decided to chuck it 40+ times rather than stick with the run. It’s hard to see them turning things around against the Vikings in Minnesota next week.

Kareem Hunt goes over 100 yards against the Texans.

Though the game didn’t start off great for the rookie back, who couldn’t find much room to run against Houston, he ended up with another excellent game, rushing 29 times for 107 yards while adding three receptions for nine yards. Charcandrick West caught two touchdowns, and scoring was the only thing missing from Hunt’s fantasy day, but he’s rushed for over 100 yards in four of his first five NFL games. Hunt is obviously an RB1 next week against the Steelers.

Matt Breida gets six touches in Week 6.

The undrafted rookie played well, carrying four times for 21 yards while adding two receptions for 15 yards, but Carlos Hyde (18 touches) was locked back in as the workhorse for the Niners after his benching last week. Breida is basically just a Hyde handcuff for now.
