Tyler Bass goes 1/2 in win

By Emily Maingi

Tyler Bass made 1/2 field goals and 2/3 extra points in Monday’s win against the Jets.

Fantasy Impact: Bass has struggled with a few misses this season, but tonight’s may be explained by the strong wind, also evidenced when Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein missed two field goal attempts. Bass will look to get back on track in Week 7 against the Titans.

Mack Hollins had one catch for eight yards and a touchdown in Monday’s win.

Fantasy Impact: Hollins’ only catch of the game was his touchdown reception midway through the second quarter. Hollins doesn’t have a consistent pass-catching role in the offense, so he will not be fantasy-relevant unless there’s a significant change made.

Dawson Knox had one catch for 12 yards with a touchdown on Monday.

Fantasy Impact: Knox mostly cedes his pass-catching work to fellow tight end Dalton Kincaid, but on a broken-down play, Knox had his only reception of the game in the second quarter, which ended up being a touchdown. Since Knox isn’t as involved in the passing game, he isn’t fantasy-relevant unless Kincaid misses time.

Dalton Kincaid caught 6 passes for 51 yards in Monday’s win over the Jets.

Fantasy Impact: Kincaid led his team in receptions and was a reliable target for Josh Allen. Fellow tight end Dawson Knox caught a touchdown pass, frustrating Kincaid managers. However, Kincaid is still Allen's preferred pass-catching tight end and will continue to be in the mid-range TE1 conversation in Week 7’s matchup against the Titans.

Ty Johnson rushed four times for 34 yards in Monday’s victory against the Jets.

Fantasy Impact: Although he was explosive in his four touches, the Bills relied on rookie Ray Davis to take the majority of James Cook’s workload. Davis is the very clear third running back in the Bills’ offense, so his fantasy value is limited unless both backs ahead of him miss time, making him fantasy irrelevant.

Ray Davis rushed 20 times for 97 yards in Monday’s victory against the Jets. He also had three catches for 55 yards.

Fantasy Impact: The rookie Davis stepped up in a big way in James Cook’s absence, leading his team in receiving yards en route to a victory. Davis’ 152 scrimmage yards are by far the most of his young career, and may have earned a larger role in the offense even when James Cook is healthy. Cook’s status is worth monitoring for Week 7, but if he misses a second straight game, Davis will be a solid start against the Titans.

Keon Coleman caught three passes for 26 yards in Monday’s victory against the Jets.

Fantasy Impact: Coleman now has 12 catches on the season for 201 yards and two touchdowns. Coleman hasn’t separated himself from the pack of Bills wide receivers, leaving him with a very unstable floor and risky fantasy play in Week 7's game against the Titans.

Curtis Samuel goes 3/44 in win

Curtis Samuel caught three passes for 44 yards in Monday’s victory over the Jets.

Fantasy Impact: Samuel’s 44 yards was his season high, but he still hasn’t had the level of involvement some were hoping for. While he made the most of his four targets, he is still in an offense that has at least three pass-catchers above him in the pecking order. Unless Samuel separates himself from his fellow wide receivers, he won’t be fantasy-relevant moving forward.

Khalil Shakir caught two passes for 19 yards in Monday’s win against the Jets.

Fantasy Impact: Shakir had minimal involvement in his first game back after missing Week 5 with an ankle injury. Shakir had an injury designation coming into Monday’s game, so it is worth noting that his small workload could be related to recovering from his injury. Shakir will look to bounce back in Week 7 against the Titans.

Josh Allen completed 19/25 passes for 215 yards and two touchdowns. He also added 9 rushes for 18 yards and a rushing touchdown.

Fantasy Impact: Although he didn’t put up eye-popping numbers, he certainly bounced back after a tough Week 5. Allen accounted for all of his team’s touchdowns and lost no turnovers on his way to victory. Allen will look to lead the Bills to another victory in Week 7 against the Titans, where he can be considered in the QB1 overall conversation.

Greg Zuerlein made 2/4 field goals and both his extra points in Monday’s loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Zuerlein's misses loom large, as the Jets only lost by three. While the wind was certainly a factor in his misses, Zuerlein will need to make those short-range field goals moving forward if he wants to keep his job. Next week’s matchup against the Steelers could be a low-scoring affair, so Zuerlein will undoubtedly need to convert if the Jets want to win.

Jeremy Ruckert caught two passes for seven yards in Monday’s loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Ruckert has only had six grabs all year. Because Tyler Conklin is the more involved pass catcher in the offense, Ruckert will only be a decent streaming option if Conklin misses time.

Category: Game Recaps


Tyler Conklin caught two passes for 10 yards in Monday’s loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Conklin was mostly uninvolved in Monday’s game, playing second fiddle to Garrett Wilson, Allen Lazard, and Breece Hall. Conklin isn’t a reliable tight-end play each week, but he should be viewed as a streaming option during bye weeks.

Braelon Allen rushed 3 times for 8 yards in Monday’s loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Allen took a backseat to Breece Hall, the more lauded pass catcher of the group. Allen will likely continue to fall victim to game-script moving forward and will see less involvement when trailing. He remains an elite handcuff to Breece Hall moving forward, but he won’t have much standalone value unless his role shifts throughout the season.

Category: Game Recaps


Allen Lazard caught six passes for 114 yards and a touchdown in Monday’s loss against the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Lazard’s night was highlighted by a 52-yard Hail Mary grab he made as time expired in the first half. Lazard continues to be a safety net for Aaron Rodgers, and his role as the Jets’ WR2 will leave him as a flex option as bye weeks continue.

Category: Game Recaps


Garrett Wilson caught eight passes for 107 yards and a touchdown in Monday's loss to the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Wilson was heavily involved from the start and hit paydirt in the first quarter. His 107 total yards are a season high. Wilson, like most of the Jets offense, benefitted from a new play-caller despite the loss. Wilson faces a tough matchup in Week 7 against a strong Steelers secondary.

Category: Game Recaps


Breece Hall rushed 18 times for 113 yards in Monday’s loss against the Bills. He also added five catches for 56 yards.

Fantasy Impact: Hall had a 42-yard rush in the third quarter, leading to a game-tying field goal. Week 6 was Hall's best game this season by far, totaling 169 yards. Hall will have a tougher matchup against the Steelers in Week 7 but will still be a must-start due to his volume and pass-catching upside.

Aaron Rodgers completed 22/35 passes for 294 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception in Monday’s loss against the Bills.

Fantasy Impact: Rodgers and the Jets offense seemed to flow better under interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich and new play-caller Todd Downing. Rodgers most notably hit a 52-yard Hail Mary to Allen Lazard as time expired in the first half. On a less positive note, Rodgers also threw an interception with less than two minutes remaining and ultimately did not get the ball back. Rodgers and the Jets face the Steelers in Week 7 and will hope to find a way to bounce back into the win column.

Fantasy Impact: The next step is to see when Kupp practices and how it goes. The team will gather more information as the week progresses, but he has at least a chance to return this upcoming week.

The NFL did not reinstate Tashaun Gipson from his six-game suspension. (Source: Tom Pelissero on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Gipson was expected to be reinstated after completing his six-game suspension this past week. He should be eligible to play next week when the Jaguars take on the Patriots in London.
