Dak Prescott News
Saturday, October 17, 12:29 AM
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott will face the Green Bay Packers on the road in Week 6 after a disappointing performance in Week 5. He failed to lift the Cowboys to a win against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers sans their starting quarterback, Baker Mayfield (thumb). This week, he'll face one of the tougher defenses against quarterbacks in the NFL -- Green Bay has allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing QBs this season. It looks like wide receiver CeeDee Lamb will return for Week 6 without restrictions, but he may still be slowed down by the thigh injury that affected him in Week 5. Prescott wasn't very effective with Lamb out of the lineup, and threw just one touchdown against two interceptions in the loss. Prescott is still productive enough to be a QB1, and depending on how healthy Lamb is, could bounce back, but don't expect a monster ceiling against the defense that's lockdown against the pass, allowing the sixth-fewest yards per pass attempt this year.

Caleb Williams News
Saturday, October 17, 3:02 AM
Chicago Bears quarterback Caleb Williams (hamstring) will draw a questionable tag for the second straight game as his team squares off with the hosting Atlanta Falcons this Sunday. Williams has already missed three games in 2026 with a hamstring injury sustained in Week 2's loss to the Vikings. One might think the 24-year-old has a strong shot to suit up this weekend, since he participated fully in this week's practice prep. However, he may still be feeling lingering effects from an apparent tear. As for fantasy, Williams would be a must-start if he returns this week against a Falcons defense that's been a pass funnel so far in 2026. While Atlanta ranks highly against opposing ground attacks, it's been much softer on the back end, giving up the sixth-most passing yards per game (248.4). Fantasy managers should once again monitor Chicago's QB situation right up until kickoff. Williams is RotoBaller's QB9 if active.
