Fantasy News

Ty Montgomery (ribs) is questionable for Sunday against Minnesota.

Considering the third-year back was a full participant in practice all week, we’d expect him to be ready to go against the Vikings. His workload will be a bit uncertain, however, after the emergence of rookie Aaron Jones. Check back in on Sunday morning, but expect to have Montgomery back for the Week 6 matchup.

JuJu Smith-Schuster caught four passes for 58 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Jaguars.

As expected, JuJu was the team’s second most effective receiver with Martavis Bryant doing battle with A.J. Bouye and Jalen Ramsey on the outside. Smith-Schuster is worth a pickup if he’s still available, as he’s a full-time player in a normally-explosive offense. He gets the Chiefs in Week 6.

Derek Carr will start on Sunday against the Chargers.

The Raiders quarterback is off the injury report and ready to go after missing one game with the transverse fracture in his back. It’s great to see Carr get past an injury that could’ve kept him out for multiple weeks, but he still might not be at 100% yet. He’s an option in fantasy lineups given his upside, but you might be better off going with other options if you have them this week. Carr is 13th among quarterbacks in our Week 6 fantasy rankings.

Marcedes Lewis catches one pass in Week 5.

Lewis’ reception was for 14 yards in the win. He had three touchdowns in Week 3, but this was his only reception other than that game this season.

Terrance West (calf) has officially been ruled out for Week 6.

This was fully expected and is now official, as West is expected to miss some time with his calf. This might not be the only game he misses, and consider him questionable for Week 7 against the Vikings. Baltimore will roll with Alex Collins and Javorius Allen on Sunday versus the Bears.

Allen Hurns gets three targets in Week 5.

Hurns caught two passes for 21 yards in the win over Pittsburgh. The Jags are committed to running the ball and only had 14 pass attempts in the game, which limits the upside of all Jacksonville receivers.

Mike Williams (back) is questionable for Week 6.

The debut of the rookie receiver is very close, but his game status might not be certain until an hour and a half before the late-afternoon kickoff on Sunday. Either way, Williams wouldn’t be a recommended fantasy option in his first NFL game after missing five games and the entire preseason, but it’ll be exciting when the seventh pick in the draft hits the field.
