Darnell Mooney Questionable to Return With Neck Injury

Sunday, October 18, 11:36 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Darnell Mooney (neck) is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the New Orleans Saints, according to Art Stapleton. Mooney entered the contest having dealt with a neck issue during the practice week, he participated fully Thursday and Friday and carried no injury designation into Sunday. The veteran contributed a 20-yard rushing attempt before the latest injury update, but his availability for the remainder of the afternoon is uncertain. It remains unclear whether he aggravated his previous injury or suffered a separate neck issue. Malik Nabers and tight end Isaiah Likely remain New York's primary receiving options, while Malachi Fields could see additional playing time if Mooney cannot return.

Keon Coleman Remains a Risky Flex Despite Week 5 Touchdown

Saturday, October 17, 7:41 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman found the end zone against the Rams, but his overall involvement was disappointing considering Buffalo's depleted receiving corps. Coleman caught just one of two targets for seven yards, with the lone reception going for a touchdown. The performance came one week after he recorded six catches for 116 yards and a score against New England. That difference illustrates the difficulty fantasy managers have faced when deciding whether to trust him. Coleman has 15 receptions for 224 yards and two touchdowns through five games, but he has drawn only 18 targets during that stretch. Buffalo's Week 6 opponent, Las Vegas, has struggled defensively, creating opportunities for the Bills to generate explosive plays. Coleman carries touchdown upside and some appeal as a deeper-league flex, although his inconsistent target volume makes him difficult to trust in standard-sized fantasy leagues.
