Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk caught three of four targets for 20 yards last week in his team's 26-0 win over the Titans, and he will look to continue to work his way into a volume role against the Ravens this week, after missing the first two weeks of the season. He played 61% of snaps in Week 4 after playing 67% in Week 3. With the Texans playing from ahead, they didn't throw the ball as muh in Week 4, though, so his targets decreased. The veteran wideout continues to find a way to carve out a role in Houston's underwhelming passing offense, and he seems to be the primary slot option and secondary receiver behind Nico Collins. The Ravens have been very beatable through the air so he does have potential flier upside even though his WR43 ranking on RotoBaller means he's not an ideal flex solution.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Jameson Williams has struggled to maintain a consistent role in his team's offense so far this season. Through five games, the 24-year-old has recorded just 11 catches for 223 yards and one touchdown on 21 targets. Williams is averaging over 20 yards per reception and remains an explosive downfield threat, but his middling target volume makes him very difficult for fantasy managers to trust. Williams' Week 6 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs does not appear to be a great spot for him to break out. The Chiefs have allowed the ninth-fewest passing yards (999) and the fourth-fewest number of passing touchdowns (five) in the NFL so far this season. Additionally, the Lions could be without starting left tackle Taylor Decker (shoulder), which may make it difficult for quarterback Jared Goff to have the time to hit Williams for a big play down the field. Williams profiles as a low-end, boom/bust WR3/flex option in Week 6 against Kansas City.
