Lamar Jackson at Cleveland — Ankle Injury Clouds Week 6 Outlook

Lamar Jackson remains questionable for Sunday's road clash in Cleveland after missing practice again on Thursday with an ankle injury suffered on Oct. 4. While the coaching staff suggested he could play without practicing, back-to-back absences make his status genuinely uncertain, with Tyler Huntley ready to step in. Fantasy managers should check back often for the latest updates prior to Sunday's kickoff.

If active, Jackson still carries elite upside, though an ankle issue could bring limited mobility outside the pocket. Our weekly projection pegs him for 208 passing yards, 1.3 passing scores, and 42 rushing yards (17.9 fantasy points). His start rate has dipped to 44% due to the injury cloud, but he remains a must-start option if cleared—just ensure you have an insurance contingency ready.

Drake Maye vs. Jets — Red-Hot Quarterback Primed for Another Strong Outing

Drake Maye has caught fire over his last two games, leading New England to consecutive wins while racking up 643 passing yards and eight total touchdowns. The offense has found its rhythm, keeping pressure off Maye and unlocking his downfield aggression with weapons like Hunter Henry and DeMario Douglas.

Our weekly projections forecast another productive afternoon with 220 passing yards, 1.5 passing scores, and 28 rushing yards (19.9 fantasy points) as home favorites against the Jets. With his start rate surging to 86%, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats.
