Steelers QB Justin Fields managed only 145 passing yards in Sunday's blowout win over Las Vegas. But he delivered for fantasy managers with 59 yards and 2 TDs on the ground.
Broncos WR Josh Reynolds is out for Week 6 and “likely a few more weeks” after undergoing finger surgery, according to insider Aaron Wilson. WR Troy Franklin is the most likely candidate to take Reynolds’ snaps, but the rookie is not a viable Week 6 fantasy play.
Steelers QB Russell Wilson (calf) will “likely” be active as QB Justin Fields’ backup against the Raiders on Sunday, HC Mike Tomlin said. Perhaps this means Fields’ leash is a tad shorter if he struggles this weekend, but he remains a fine low-end QB1 in the plus matchup.

Jets RB Breece Hall ran the ball 10 times for only four yards. He caught two of his five targets for 14 yards. It was an extremely disappointing fantasy day for Hall who could not get anything going behind the Jets Offensive Line.
Jets WR Garrett Wilson had a mediocre day catching five of his eight targets for 41 yards. He also lost a fumble in the game. QB Aaron Rodgers threw the ball 42 times, so Wilson had some solid targets, but being shadowed by Patrick Surtain Jr. for much of the game hurt Wilson’s stat line.

RB Breece Hall totaled 54 yards on his 16 carries (3.4 YPC). Allen flashed impressive acceleration and power throughout. He had a pair of 11-yard runs, and seven of his 11 runs went for 5+ yards. Allen also caught all three of his targets for 13 yards.
Jets WR Garrett Wilson caught five of nine targets for 33 yards and a score in Thursday night's win over the Patriots. It was a frustrating night for Wilson outside of that TD, which came from two yards out on a well-thrown ball from QB Aaron Rodgers. There were multiple missed connections where Rodgers and Wilson just didn't appear to quite be on the same page. There was also a back-shoulder throw that would have gone for about 20 yards, but Wilson's second foot tapped just out of bounds. On the night, Rodgers completed 56% of his passes at 3.7 yards per attempt to Wilson vs. 85% at 9.5 yards per attempt to everyone else.

But Rapoport notes that Wilson didn't do much in Friday's practice, while Fields took all the first-team reps.
