Last week, Ja’Marr Chase was the top wide receiver in my rankings, and he delivered a monster game as the top wide receiver of the week. His teammate Tee Higgins was not far behind while the Falcons duo of Drake London and Darnell Mooney also finished in the top six at the position.
Nico Collins (hamstring) began the week as the No. 1 WR so far this season, but Chase passed him while Collins also suffered a hamstring injury and is “day-to-day” as the week begins. His situation will be key to monitor this week along with several other important injuries.
The Eagles’ two receivers, A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith are coming back from their bye week and could be healthy and in the mix. Amon-Ra St. Brown and Calvin Ridley are also back from their bye weeks while the Chiefs, Vikings, Dolphins and Rams are off this week.
There is always a lot of volatility at wide receiver, but here are my top 25 WRs for Week 6:
- Ja’Marr Chase (at NYG)
- Amon-Ra St. Brown (at DAL)
- CeeDee Lamb (vs. DET)
- Malik Nabers (vs. CIN) if ready to return
- Jayden Reed (vs. ARI) assuming no Watson/Doubs
- Drake London (at CAR)
- Terry McLaurin (at BAL)
- DJ Moore (vs. JAC)
- Deebo Samuel Sr. (vs. ARI)
- Marvin Harrison Jr. (at GB)
- DK Metcalf (vs. SF)
- A.J. Brown (vs. CLE) if ready to return
- Amari Cooper (at PHI)
- Mike Evans (at NO)
- Zay Flowers (vs. WAS)
- Garrett Wilson (vs. BUF)
- Stefon Diggs (at NE) assuming Collins is out
- Chris Olave (vs. TB)
- Chris Godwin (at NO)
- Tee Higgins (at NYG)
- George Pickens (at LV)
- Michael Pittman Jr. (at TEN)

- Jameson Williams (at DAL)
