Week 6 WR Start/Sit
Week 6 WR Start/Sit
Week 6 is here, and by now fantasy rosters are starting to take shape — for better or worse. With injuries, bye weeks, and surprising breakouts shaking things up, every lineup decision counts.

STARTS
Josh Downs
Josh Downs is finally seeing the usage many fantasy managers expected. He led the Colts in targets and catches last week and now faces an Arizona defense that’s vulnerable underneath. Slot receivers have averaged nearly 90 yards and a score per game against the Cardinals. Downs’ volume makes him a strong WR3 with WR2 potential.
Stefon Diggs
Stefon Diggs remains red-hot after posting 247 yards and 16+ PPR points in consecutive games. Despite a tough matchup with the Saints, New Orleans has already allowed multiple wideouts to top 17 PPR points this year. Diggs should stay productive as a dependable WR2.
SITS
Garrett Wilson
Garrett Wilson has been outstanding, but his Week 6 matchup against Denver — and Patrick Surtain II — is brutal. Surtain has held multiple star receivers under 10 fantasy points this season, making Wilson a tough start outside of deeper formats.
Jameson Williams
Jameson Williams remains a boom-or-bust option, ranking near the bottom of the league in catch rate despite elite air yards. The Chiefs defense has allowed the lowest completion rate and passer rating on deep throws. Williams’ volatility makes him an easy sit.
