Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love had an awesome game for fantasy managers who started him in Week 4 against Dallas, tossing three touchdown passes to wide receiver Romeo Doubs and piling up 337 passing yards. He'll look to continue that strong play in Week 6 when the Packers host the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 6. Love finished as fantasy's QB6 in Week 4, his first weekly finish as a top-ten quarterback since Week 6 of last season. It was also Love's first game with over 40 passing attempts since Week 4 of 2024. Passing volume isn't a regular thing for the Packers; it's more of an exception rather than the rule. If you're starting Love in Week 6, you're hoping the Bengals can score a bit, so the Packers get pushed to pass a bit more. Ultimately, Love is a viable starting quarterback for fantasy managers against a porous Bengals defense.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Brock Purdy (toe) put in a limited practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Kyle Shanahan. The 49ers are hoping that Purdy can put in more work at practice this week, which could potentially give him a chance to return to starting duties in Week 7 on Sunday Night Football against an improved Atlanta Falcons defense. Purdy suffered a turf-toe injury in Week 1 and missed Weeks 2 and 3. He then aggravated his toe injury in his return in Week 4 and hasn't played since. Backup Mac Jones (knee, oblique) has played well in Purdy's absence, but there's no question that Purdy is San Fran's starter when healthy. Purdy will likely need to put in a full practice to avoid a questionable tag this week. If he's able to return, he could be getting star tight end George Kittle (hamstring) back from Injured Reserve, too. In his two starts, Purdy has averaged 24.2 fantasy points, which ranks fourth among all QBs in 2025.
