Jalen McMillan Could be Sneaky Stash Candidate

Saturday, October 10, 5:44 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Jalen McMillan (knee) hasn't been able to make an impact this season due to injury. He sustained a PCL sprain of his left knee in Week 3 and has been sidelined since then. McMillan was placed on the Injured Reserve shortly after that and is expected to miss around two months of action. The hope is that McMillan will be back in action around mid-season, but that depends on his recovery. Once healthy, McMillan should immediately move into the No. 3 role on the depth chart. The 24-year-old showed flashes during his rookie season, but he hasn't been able to stay healthy since then. He remains worth stashing in dynasty formats and is someone who could be a sneaky stash candidate in deep leagues once he creeps closer to getting back on the field.

Malachi Fields Remains Off the Fantasy Radar in Week 6

Saturday, October 17, 7:56 AM

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malachi Fields caught both of his targets for 20 yards in the 27-27 tie against the Washington Commanders. After scoring his first career touchdown in Week 4 against the Arizona Cardinals, Fields struggled to produce in back-to-back weeks, despite a monster game from quarterback Jameis Winston. Fields' usage has been solid, playing over 70% of snaps and 65% of routes in five games this season. However, with wide receiver Malik Nabers and tight end Isaiah Likely emerging as the top two options in this passing game, Fields will remain a third- or fourth-option in this offense. He faces a New Orleans Saints defense that has struggled in recent weeks, allowing big games to wide receivers Justin Jefferson, Drake London, and Rashod Bateman this season. However, as the less-involved option, Fields doesn't have starting value in Week 6.
