A.J. Brown News
Saturday, October 17, 12:20 PM
New England Patriots wide receiver A.J. Brown (ankle) has officially been activated from Injured Reserve and will play in his team's Week 6 matchup against the New York Jets, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Brown has been sidelined since suffering a high-ankle sprain in New England's Week 1 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The 29-year-old is in his first season with the Patriots, but he has a long history of being a highly productive wideout and should immediately become the number one target for New England quarterback Drake Maye. Across 15 games with the Philadelphia Eagles in 2025, Brown recorded 78 catches for 1,003 yards and seven touchdowns on 121 targets. Now that he's officially active, Brown profiles as a must-start wide receiver for fantasy managers in Week 6.

Garrett Wilson News
Saturday, October 17, 7:52 AM
New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson continues to command an overwhelming share of the passing game, an encouraging development with several other offensive players dealing with injuries. Wilson caught seven passes for 104 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets against Cleveland in Week 5, giving him his second 100-yard receiving performance of the season. He has now accumulated 31 receptions for 374 yards and three touchdowns on 42 targets through five contests. His involvement should remain substantial against New England, particularly with Adonai Mitchell (finger) officially ruled out. The Patriots will have Christian Gonzalez available again, creating a more challenging individual matchup, although their secondary will be missing Carlton Davis III and Karon Prunty. Wilson's weekly target volume provides a dependable foundation even when New York struggles to sustain drives. He remains a strong WR2 in PPR formats and should be started in most fantasy leagues.
