New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin (hip) is listed as questionable on the team's final injury report heading into a Week 6 matchup against the Buffalo Bills on Monday night. Conklin practiced on a limited basis all week and could be headed for a game-time decision, meaning fantasy managers counting on him might want to have a backup plan in place. If Conklin does play, he will go up against a Buffalo defense that is allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends. Due to the injury and the tough matchup, Conklin lands as a mid-range TE2 in fantasy heading into Week 6.



New York Jets wide receiver Mike Williams had been trending up in recent weeks but he took a step back in Week 5, catching just two balls for 25 yards in a loss to the Minnesota Vikings. He will look to bounce back at home against the Buffalo Bills in Week 6's Monday night game. It isn't a great matchup for Williams, however, as the Bills are allowing the seventh-fewest fantasy points per game to wide receivers this year. Williams could benefit from the extra defensive attention paid to Garrett Wilson and, to a lesser extent, Allen Lazard, but he is still not a strong fantasy option heading into Week 6. Treat him as a WR5 this weekend.



New York Jets tight end Tyler Conklin (hip) logged another limited practice on Friday. The 29-year-old picked up a hip injury during Sunday's loss to the Vikings in London. However, he is expected to suit up in the Monday night divisional clash with the Buffalo Bills, barring a setback. Conklin hasn't been a consistent fantasy tight end this season. Yet, he's had five or more catches in two of the Jets' five games this season. Although he's still a risky fantasy option in any format, especially if Aaron Rodgers (ankle) doesn't play, the upside is there for those in need of a streaming option in Week 6.



Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (ankle) no longer carries an injury designation heading into the AFC West clash with the Broncos. The signal-caller was limited at practice on Wednesday and Thursday because of an ankle injury. However, he's made progress and logged a full session on Friday, clearing the way for his availability. Herbert has struggled without Keenan Allen, Mike Williams, and Austin Ekeler no longer on the roster. While he's only thrown one interception, he hasn't tossed for more than 179 yards in a game this season. Unfortunately, Herbert doesn't have much fantasy value outside of multi-quarterback setups in Week 6. That will remain true unless he turns things around, although that may not happen soon.



Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris is yet to find the end zone this season but will be looking to capitalize on a plus matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 6. The Raiders are surrendering 5.2 yards per carry and the seventh-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs in 2024. Harris has been disappointing with the backfield to himself, however, and could be joined on Sunday by Jaylen Warren (knee) for the first time since Week 3. Warren logged a full practice on Friday and is officially listed as questionable to make his return. The Steelers' offense has struggled to get things going recently, so although the addition of Warren would be welcome, it could take away from Harris' workload, specifically in the passing game. Harris has generated most of his fantasy output as a pass-catcher over the past two weeks, averaging 2.5 receptions for 44.5 yards on 4 targets per contest. Given the matchup, Harris should be considered a low-end RB2 this week regardless of Warren's availability, but fantasy managers will need to keep an eye on how Pittsburgh splits backfield opportunities moving forward.
