10 WR sleepers to target for fantasy football Week 6
By Jakob Ashlin
8. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 6: Isaiah McKenzie, Buffalo Bills
Rostered: 38.5%
McKenzie has cleared concussion protocol, and he is expected to play this Sunday. The Bills offense is explosive, averaging a blistering 30.4 points per game. This season, McKenzie is averaging only 5.25 targets per game, but he has scored a touchdown in three out of his four games.
McKenzie is an intriguing streaming option, but he does carry some risk. He is a touchdown-dependent FLEX option.
7. Fantasy football wide receiver sleepers for Week 6: Alec Pierce, Indianapolis Colts
Rostered: 22.7%
Pierce is emerging as one of Matt Ryan’s favorite targets. Pierce has 12 receptions for 161 yards over his last two games. Last week, he received a season-high nine targets. Additionally, Pierce has recorded more receptions and receiving yards in each of the last two games than Michael Pittman Jr.
Pierce is now firmly on the fantasy radar, and he will have a favorable matchup this week against the Houston Texans.
He should be rostered in deeper leagues, and he is a solid matchup play this week.
