Week 6 ranks: QB | RB | WR | TE | K | Team D | Flex

Welcome to Week 6, fantasy fans! It’s the first week of the season with four teams on a bye: the Bengals, Dolphins, Lions and Vikings. That leaves fantasy managers without a trio of fantasy superstar wide receivers in Ja’Marr Chase, Justin Jefferson and Amon-Ra St. Brown. 

This week’s rankings include some risers in Christian Watson and Malik Nabers, and there are a few good streaming options based on the matchups—check out Start ’Em, Sit ’Em for all the details! A number of receivers are dealing with injuries, none more than DeVonta Smith and Ladd McConkey, and others, like Jaylen Waddle, have seen their fantasy stock sink. 

Here are my fantasy wide receiver rankings as we head into Week 6. Check back on a regular basis for updates, especially after the final team injury reports come out late in the week!
