Ashton Jeanty vs. Buffalo — Healthy and Primed for High-Scoring Clash
After battling ankle and foot issues that limited his practice time last week, Jeanty practiced fully and confirmed his ankle feels the best it has all season. He remains locked in as the lead back atop the depth chart ahead of Mike Washington Jr. and Dylan Laube.
Facing the Bills in a game projected for plenty of offensive fireworks, Jeanty should benefit from high-leverage red-zone opportunities. Our weekly projection anticipates roughly 15 carries for 56 rushing yards alongside nearly four receptions, totaling 15.7 fantasy points. Fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats.

Jaylen Warren at Tampa Bay — Maintaining Featured Lead Status
Warren enters Week 6 as the clear focal point of Pittsburgh's backfield after racking up 188 scrimmage yards and two scores in Week 5, capturing AFC Offensive Player of the Week honors. Even with Rico Dowdle practicing in full and nearing a return from a toe injury, head coach Mike McCarthy reiterated that Warren remains the offense's featured back. With wideout Michael Pittman Jr. on injured reserve, Pittsburgh has every incentive to continue channeling touches through their hottest playmaker.
Starting in 98% of leagues, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats as a must-start option. Our weekly projection expects around 61 rushing yards and three catches for 33 receiving yards. While a modest 39.5 over/under implies a potentially low-scoring road tilt against the Buccaneers, Warren's versatile pass-catching role keeps his floor secure.
