Emergency fantasy football waiver-wire targets for NFL Week 6
Key Points:
- Tyler Allgeier is expected to be the Arizona Cardinals' lead running back this week due to Jeremiyah Love being ruled out.
- Germie Bernard, a rookie wide receiver for the Pittsburgh Steelers, is one of only two healthy wide receivers on the team's active roster, highlighting his opportunity to contribute.
- Tyler Higbee is the primary receiving tight end for the Los Angeles Rams this week, stepping up with Terence Ferguson on injured reserve.
- Quarterback Jacoby Brissett of the Arizona Cardinals remains a fantasy-relevant option due to high passing volume despite average efficiency, especially with Love out and a game against the Rams likely to involve a pass-heavy script.
- Tyler Huntley of the Baltimore Ravens is a viable fantasy quarterback option in deeper leagues as Lamar Jackson remains sidelined, facing a favorable matchup against the Cleveland Browns.
