Matthew Stafford News
Saturday, October 17, 6:32 AM
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has ranked near the top of the fantasy football leaderboard in three of his last four games, and he should continue to produce at a very high level in Week 6 against the Arizona Cardinals. Stafford is coming off a 383-yard, three-touchdown performance against the Bills, during which he also completed a career-high 40 passes. He should continue to throw the ball very often in Week 6, given that this game has an implied total of 51.5 points. Furthermore, Arizona has allowed the most points in the NFL this season, with 32.4 points surrendered per game. The Cardinals have also given up the third-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in 2026. The Rams definitely should have a positive game script in this one, but it might not be so extreme that the Rams just run the ball for 60 minutes. We still expect Stafford to have a big day, positioning him as a mid-range QB1 in fantasy football.

Lamar Jackson News
Friday, October 23, 8:20 AM
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) came out to the field for Friday's practice, which is an encouraging sign that he will return to action this Sunday to face the division-rival Cincinnati Bengals in Week 7, according to Jamison Hensley of ESPN. Jackson has been limited in the last two practices and is dealing with a left-ankle injury that has caused him to miss the last two games. Backup Tyler Huntley has played well in Jackson's absence, but after losing a close battle to the division-rival Cleveland Browns last week, the Ravens look ready to bring the two-time MVP back for a big game against Cincinnati. The 29-year-old could be listed as questionable on Friday's final injury report, but all signs continue to point to Jackson returning this weekend. If he is active on Sunday, Jackson will be a must-start in all fantasy football leagues against the Bengals. The four-time Pro Bowler has thrown for 967 yards, six touchdowns, and one interception in four games this year, adding 144 rushing yards and one touchdown with his legs.
