Fantasy Football Player Notes

McLaurin didn't put up necessarily impressive numbers in week five, but the Saints are one of the tougher matchups for opposing WRs this entire season. The encouraging takeaway is that McLaurin still saw a hefty 27.5% target share that resulted in 11 total targets. Through five games, McLaurin now has a 30.2% target share, which is the fifth-highest in the entire NFL. Looking ahead to week six, McLaurin now gets a matchup against the Chiefs defense that simply cannot stop opposing passing games. They're currently allowing 26.4 fantasy points per game to opposing WRs and there's the potential that McLaurin finishes the week as a top-5 WR because of the matchup and the projected over/under. Fire him up with full confidence this week.

Gibby's shin injury didn't seem to bother him in Week 5 as he totaled 22 touches and scored a pair of touchdowns to finish the week as the RB12. That injury shouldn't be a concern in Week 6 either, as he gets a mouth-watering matchup with Kansas City's putrid defense.

McKissic's weekly fantasy finishes have been all over the place, but he gets a good chance to post some solid numbers in Week 6. Facing a Chiefs team looking to get back on track, the Football Team may be chasing points, which could lead to passing work for JDM. He's a fine flex option.

With no Logan Thomas, RSJ should see enough work to provide TE1 numbers in a juicy matchup with Kansas City's barely-there defense.

Patterson saw a season-high four carries in week five, but he only played 6% of the snaps. At this point, Patterson's merely a bench stash in Dynasty formats.
