Courtland Sutton is a WR2 with Upside in London Game vs. Jets

Saturday, October 11, 8:36 AM

Although Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will face star cornerback Sauce Gardner and the New York Jets defense, he will likely lead the team in targets as they take the field in London. Sutton has been a consistent player this season, outside of a Week 2 dud, in which Troy Franklin had a breakout game. With averages of 13.5 half-ppr ppg and 16.1 full-ppr ppg coming into Week 6, Sutton is likely the only fully reliable option within the Broncos' core against a defense that typically gets exploited by the run game more than the pass. Fantasy managers should keep him in their lineups as a WR2 with upside, as Sutton comes in as WR15 in the latest RotoBaller rankings for Week 6.

Darnell Mooney Ruled Out for Week 6

Saturday, October 11, 2:12 PM

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney (hamstring) has been ruled out for the team's Week 6 matchup against the Buffalo Bills, according to ESPN's Marc Raimondi. It's been an injury-filled season for Mooney, who has recorded seven catches for 79 yards on 16 targets across three games so far this season. With Mooney sidelined, Falcons wide receiver Ray-Ray McLoud III should see an uptick in targets. Atlanta wideout KhaDarel Hodge (groin) could also see more playing time, but he's been limited in practice this week with a groin injury and is not certain to play. Tight end Kyle Pitts could be the Falcons' pass-catcher whose outlook is most impacted by Mooney's absence. In Week 1 when a shoulder injury sidelined Mooney, Pitts recorded seven catches for 59 yards on a season-high eight targets.
