Fix Your Fantasy Football Team with the Week 6 Waiver Wire

Antonio Williams had two first downs on three targets in week 6, marking his second straight week at 70% plus of the routes. The source identifies him as a strong stash despite volume competition from McLaren, Diggs, and Okonkwo.

Brenton Strange has three straight weeks of five-plus targets and was particularly strong in the Cincinnati game, continuing to receive consistent volume.

CeeDee Lamb picked up a quad injury after the Thursday night game but the source thinks he will be fine; he gets a long week to recover.

If Saquon Barkley misses Week 6 due to injury (Will Shipley and Tank Bigsby also hurt), Pierce had 16 opportunities in London and should project around RB30 this week against Carolina; viable one-week fill-in option.

Texans RB suffered a short-term injury, creating opportunity for backup Woody Marks. Montgomery has been a rough RB1 for the Texans offense; even upon his return, there is a chance Marks remains in a featured role due to superior efficiency.

If both Quentin Judkins and Raheem Sanders are unavailable, Dylan Sampson could become the all-purpose back in Todd Monken's system, which typically splits between a receiving back and a main down-to-down back.

If Raheem Sanders is unavailable, Jalen McLaughlin could emerge as the receiving back option in the Browns' split backfield system under Todd Monken, which typically splits between a receiving back and a main down-to-down back.

Jameis Winston just had 54 pass attempts and gets a revenge game versus the Saints, who are expected to push the pace. The source identifies him as one of two quarterback streamers for the week, though there is bench risk if JJ McCarthy comes in.

Has fumbled twice in the recent game and nine times since 2025, by far the most in the NFL. Ron Stewart expects the Bills to scale back his touches and give more opportunities to Ty Johnson and Ray Davis as a result of the fumble issues.

If Jonah Coleman was dropped in your league, he is worth considering as a pickup; Dobbins and RJ Harvey have been bad, and with Shawn Payton back calling plays, he could show favor to Coleman once he returns.

Josh Cameron is worth stashing if roster space allows; his per-route metrics are exceptional: 24% targets per route run, 2.85 yards per route run, 14.6% first downs per route run on a small sample. He continues to run about a third of the routes, but if Brian Thomas were moved, Cameron could become fully unlocked. He had four targets, three catches, 43 yards on 13 routes, plus an opening kickoff return touchdown called back due to penalty. The source describes him as an explosive playmaker.

Keenan Allen's recent stat line is nine targets, five catches, 45 yards; in his last two games played for the Colts he has had nine targets. The source characterizes him as a PPR floor play you can pick up and throw in your flex spot for around eight PPR points in a given week.

Kendrick Bourne's role growth without Marvin Harrison Jr. was overstated; he had a 61% route share, which was a season low despite Harrison leaving. The Cardinals play a lot of two-wide receiver sets where Bourne cannot play on the outside, so they opt for Jaylen Brooks or Reggie Virgil at X, and they also feature Trey McBride and Elijah Higgins at tight end, which eats away from Bourne's routes.

Part of a three-way split with Keenan Mitchell and Amari Hampton in the Chargers backfield; Vidal scored the only explosive play from a Chargers running back this year with a 40-yard touchdown. Ron Stewart prefers Vidal over Keenan Mitchell as the preferred option to roster.

Would be the primary fill-in back for the Browns if Quentin Judkins cannot play; however, Sanders himself picked up a hip injury, creating backfield uncertainty. Todd Monken's system prefers a receiving back and a main down-to-down back split.

Steelers WR who left the game, opening up target share and route opportunities for Jeremy Bernard, who moves into the WR2 role behind DK Metcalf.

Has been back in the lineup three straight weeks; in two of those weeks he had four catches and 50+ receiving yards. Ron Stewart expects him to be the main receiving back in a Bills offense that creates explosive plays and scores touchdowns, and believes he might chip away at touches from James Cook late in games. Should be rostered.

Tyler Higbee, even with Kobe Parkinson back, posted a solid five catches for 83 yards on Monday night. This marks his third consecutive game with 10-plus PPR points and six-plus targets.

Priority waiver add available in 52% of ESPN leagues; Ron Stewart would bid 10%+ of FAB budget if needing RB help. Marks received 19 touches after Montgomery's injury and slots in as low-end RB2 in any game Montgomery misses. Even when Montgomery returns, Marks has a chance to remain in a featured role given his superior efficiency compared to Montgomery, who has been a rough RB1 for the Texans offense.
