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.

Deebo Samuel Sr. Ruled Out for Week 7

Saturday, October 18, 2:41 PM

Washington Commanders wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr. (heel) will not travel to Dallas for his team's Week 7 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. The Commanders will be extremely shorthanded at wide receiver in Week 7, as they will be playing without Samuel Sr., Terry McLaurin (quad), and Noah Brown (groin, knee). Without their top three wideouts, Washington will likely turn to Chris Moore, Luke McCaffrey, and Jaylin Lane for wide receiver production. McCaffrey has averaged 22.4 yards per reception and scored three touchdowns so far this season, so he may be the best option for desperate fantasy managers to take a shot on this week. Commanders tight end Zach Ertz (shoulder, calf) could be the favorite to lead the team in targets against Dallas, but he's listed as questionable to play due to shoulder and calf injuries.
