Week 7 Waiver Wire Pickups & Adds

Michael Florio's Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 7: Carson Wentz, Demetric Felton, Jaret Patterson

Week 7 is easily going to be the hardest week so far to field a fantasy football lineup. There are six teams on byes: Bills, Cowboys, Chargers, Jaguars, Steelers and Vikings. There are also a ton of injuries, especially at the running back position, that will make this week challenging to set a lineup. That […]

Quarterback Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 7

The quarterback position struggled to provide much upside during Week 6, which unfortunately coincided with the first round of bye weeks in 2021. On the positive side, Dak Prescott was able to give us a rare 400-yard passing day in his overtime win against the New England Patriots. Patrick Mahomes (397 yards) just missed the […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 7 Lightning Round

Week 6 brought more action to our screens as the bye weeks start to announce their presence.

This column is published early every […]

Tyreek Hill Won't Practice Wednesday

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said that wide receiver Tyreek Hill (quadriceps) will not practice on Wednesday. Hill missed some practice time last week as well, but he ultimately played in the Week 6 win over the Washington Football Team and caught nine of his 12 targets for 76 yards and a touchdown. […]

Josh Gordon Plays Just 11 Snaps In Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Josh Gordon played just 11 offensive snaps (13%) and wasn't targeted a single time in the Week 6 win over the Washington Football Team. It comes after he played only nine snaps and caught his lone target for an 11-yard game in his team debut in Week 5. The Chiefs […]

Travis Kelce Goes For 99 Yards In Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce put together another nice performance in a Week 6 victory versus the Washington Football Team. Despite dealing with a wrist injury and missing some series, Kelce caught eight of his 11 receptions for 99 yards. Kelce seems to have escaped any long-term injury and that's the most important […]

Demarcus Robinson Scores Second Touchdown Of Season

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Demarcus Robinson caught three of his six targets for 46 yards and a touchdown in a Week 6 victory versus the Washington Football Team. The Chiefs had already locked up a victory versus the Washington Football Team late in the fourth quarter, but the Chiefs elected to go for the […]

Tyreek Hill Scores Touchdown In Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill caught nine of his 12 targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in a Week 6 victory versus the Washington Football Team. The speedy wide receiver has been banged up and sat out some plays with a quadriceps injury, but he was still able to put together a […]

Darrel Williams Finds End Zone Twice In Week 6

Filling in for Kansas City Chiefs starting running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire (knee), Darrel Williams rushed for 62 yards on 21 carries with a pair of touchdowns in Week 6 versus the Washington Football Team. He also caught three of his four targets for 27 yards. The 21 rush attempts were a season-high for an individual […]

Patrick Mahomes Tosses Two More Interceptions In Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes continued to turn the ball over with two interceptions in a Week 6 victory versus the Washington Football Team. Despite the two interceptions, he was able to put together a very strong performance for managers with 397 yards and two touchdowns. He also chipped in with 31 yards on […]

Jody Fortson Tears Achilles

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Jody Fortson (Achilles) tore his Achilles in the game against the Washington Football Team on Sunday. Fortson wasn't making much of an impact in fantasy nor for the Chiefs, but this is still devastating for his career. The 25-year-old did have two touchdowns so far this year, so perhaps tight […]

Jody Fortson Carted Off With Achilles Injury

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Jody Fortson was carted off the field during Sunday's game against the Washington Football Team and has been ruled out with an Achilles injury. Fortson being downgraded to out that quickly seems like a bad sign for his ability to get back on the field this season — a torn […]

Monday Night Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Titans vs Bills

Fans have become spoiled by fantastic Monday night games, punctuated by a massively entertaining game between the Colts and Ravens in Week 5. Indianapolis looked to be in control heading into the fourth quarter, but huge performances by Lamar Jackson, Mark Andrews, and Marquise Brown brought the game to overtime and ultimately a Ravens’ win.

Tyreek Hill Active, Lucas Niang Won't Start

Despite not coming out for warmups, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (quad) is active and will play against Washington on Sunday. The Football Team has allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers, so fantasy managers in season-long formats should roll Hill out this week, injury and all. He's the most explosive […]

Chiefs Defense Making A Big Change In Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs safety Juan Thornhill is expected to start at safety moving forward, with veteran incumbent Daniel Sorensen headed to a reserve role, beginning in Week 6 against the Washington Football Team.
