Fantasy Football picks: Week 6 SNF Steelers vs. Chargers

Hunter Henry – It looks like Henry will be making his awaited return in this Sunday night showdown. It has been noted that he will be playing a reduced workload, which seems like a pretty obvious move considering his type of injury. Still, FanDuel has him priced way down to 7k, which is perfect.

He only needs a touchdown in order to pay off, and I believe he will do just that. The Steelers have been weak at times against tight-ends, and even on a limited snap count, if the charges get in the red-zone, Henry will be on the field, and he will be targeted.

Diontae Johnson – Diontae has taken over as the teams number two receiver. Going into the season it was Moncrief who had the job, and lost it about as quickly as he got it. James Washington took it over, did nothing with it, got injured, then Johnson swooped right in and has since done pretty well.

He has two scores in the past three weeks, while exceeding 50 yards in those two game as well. Although he did not do well against Baltimore last week, he did see a season high eight targets. This is another Steeler who is priced down, and should see some decent work.

Chris Boswell – If there was ever a day to play a kicker, today is that day. Boswell has been great for Pittsburgh, hitting all ten of his field goal attempts, missing only one extra point on the year. It is such a rare thing to see a kicker perform that well nowadays.

He has also had less than nine fantasy points in only one game, which was in week one. This is a must play in all formats for me, and I will talk a little bit more about him in our next slide.
