Start or sit in Week 6 PPR leagues?
Start. If you need to start Ferguson in bigger leagues (12-14 teams), then go ahead and give him the nod.
You probably won’t need to start Ferguson in smaller (8-10 teams) leagues, unless you are scrambling for an injury replacement.
Start or sit in Week 6 standard leagues?
Start. Ferguson should bounce back in a decent matchup vs. the Chargers.
Like most of the Cowboys offense, Ferguson was held in check at the San Francisco 49ers last week, coming through with only three catches for 28 yards.
However, Ferguson has seen seven or more targets with five or more receptions in each of his last two games prior to that. It’s reasonable to believe he’ll get back to that level on Monday.
