Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp has only proven to have fantasy value when Seattle's passing game exhibits high volume. Seattle's defense has a solid chance of shutting down the Jaguars' offense in Week 6, which would render Kupp an unnecessary part of the offense. Kupp has earned five or fewer targets in three of his five games this season. He can clearly still get the job done when called upon, but the Seahawks are frankly not calling upon his services often. There are plenty of other players, either on the waiver wire or potentially on your roster, that would be safer bets for consistent production in Week 6. If you need a break-glass option, Kupp could produce if the Jaguars' offense shows up. However, that is an absolute last resort scenario.

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (knee, toe) is dealing with knee and toe injuries and was not present at practice on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Ryan McFadden. It's unclear exactly if Meyers' two injuries will put him in danger of suiting up for a Week 7 divisional battle against the Kansas City Chiefs this Sunday. The 28-year-old was able to play 90% of the offensive snaps in last Sunday's victory over the Tennessee Titans, though, catching all four of his targets for 39 yards. We'd think Meyers would be fine for this weekend as long as he returns to practice on Thursday or Friday. He has not shown much chemistry with quarterback Geno Smith this year, and his production has been disappointing in the two games that star tight end Brock Bowers (knee) has missed. If Meyers suits up in a tough matchup against KC, he should be considered a low-ceiling WR3 in fantasy football.
