Shayne Graham - K ...on 10/10/08 8:59pm / Cincinnati Bengals Comments (0)
	Graham is questionable for Week 6. The team is looking into other kicking options this week, as Graham is dealing with an injured groin. I'd highly advise not taking the risk and picking up a different kicker.

A.J. Hawk - LB ...on 10/10/08 8:57pm / Green Bay Packers Comments (0)
	Hawk is probable for Sunday's game in Seattle. He'll play, but will his groin be healthy enough to make much of an IDP impact? I'd rely on a healthier LB or DB this week.

Lawrence Tynes - K ...on 10/10/08 8:55pm / New York Giants Comments (0)
	Tynes is not among the injured for Week 6, but he's not a lock to regain his role as the Giants' kicker. John Carney has done a fine job filling in for him and head coach Tom Coughlin won't make a decision until Monday, before the Giants play in Cleveland that evening. Unless you own both kickers, I'd avoid this situation altogether this week.

Drayton Florence - ...on 10/10/08 8:52pm / Jacksonville Jaguars Comments (0)
	Florence will play in Sunday's game at Denver. An injured groin caused him to miss last week's game, but he's recovered and is good to go.

Sammy Morris - RB ...on 10/10/08 8:48pm / New England Patriots Comments (0)
	Morris should get the most touches of any Patriots' running back in Week 6. Jordan is likely out with a calf injury and Maroney is nursing a shoulder injury. Kevin Faulk got two goal-line carries last week, so there's no predicting what Bill Belichick will do. I expect Morris to be in his favor this week and a good flex play.

Aaron Rodgers - QB ...on 10/10/08 8:43pm / Green Bay Packers Comments (0)
	Rodgers did not practice on Friday. Consider it a mere precaution and expect him to play against Seattle this week. Eli Manning torched the Seahawks last week, so Rodgers is a strong QB1 play on Sunday.

Laurent Robinson - WR ...on 10/10/08 8:40pm / Atlanta Falcons Comments (0)
	Robinson is doubtful to play in Week 6. Consider him out, as he hasn't practiced all week and hasn't played since Week 4. Atlanta hosts Chicago this weekend.

Terence Newman - CB ...on 10/10/08 8:38pm / Dallas Cowboys Comments (0)
	Newman had surgery on his groin today. He'll be out at least four weeks. Clearly his loss is a big blow to an already banged up Dallas pass defense.

Ryan Fitzpatrick - QB ...on 10/10/08 8:30pm / Cincinnati Bengals Comments (0)
	Fitzpatrick will likely start the Bengals' Week 6 game against the Jets. Carson Palmer's elbow injury is expected to sideline him this week. I'd still play Housh, but I'd consider benching Johnson for a more reliable option.

Steve Breaston - WR ...on 10/10/08 8:26pm / Arizona Cardinals Comments (0)
	Breaston will start again in Week 6. He'll replace Anquan Boldin for the second straight week and is a strong WR3 play against Dallas.

Reggie Bush - RB ...on 10/10/08 8:22pm / New Orleans Saints Comments (0)
	The Raiders say they won't kick to Bush in Week 6. After he returned two punts for scores against the Vikings last week, can you blame then. If you want fantasy points out of Bush this week, he's going to have to earn them on the ground or on receptions.

Dwight Freeney - DE ...on 10/10/08 8:18pm / Indianapolis Colts Comments (0)
	Freeney is questionable for Week 6. He practiced without limitations on Friday, which is a good indication that he'll play this week. The Colts defense needs him against the Ravens and their run-first offense.

James Jones - WR ...on 10/10/08 8:14pm / Green Bay Packers Comments (0)
	Jones is questionable for Sunday's game with a knee injury. Even if he does play, he's not worth starting on your fantasy team. Green Bay travels to Seattle this week.

Koren Robinson - ...on 10/10/08 8:09pm / Seattle Seahawks Comments (0)
	Robinson will start the Seahawks' Week 5 game against the Green Bay Packers. Charlie Frye will likely start at QB and Bobby Engram stands to see most of his targets, so Robinson is not a player to own in most fantasy leagues.

Manny Lawson - LB ...on 10/10/08 8:03pm / San Francisco 49ers Comments (0)
	Lawson is doubtful to play against the Eagles on Sunday. He has eight tackles this season and continues to be bothered with a hamstring injury.

Brandon Lloyd - ...on 10/10/08 8:02pm / Chicago Bears Comments (0)
	Lloyd is listed as doubtful on the Week 6 injury report. He hasn't practiced and there's no word when he'll return from his torn PCL. Davis, Booker and Hester will be Chicago's receivers for Sunday's game against Atlanta.

Mike Walker - WR ...on 10/10/08 7:58pm / Jacksonville Jaguars Comments (0)
	Walker will not play against the Broncos on Sunday. His sprained MCL will sideline him this week. Matt Jones is the only other Jags receiver worth owning.

Eddie Royal - ...on 10/10/08 7:42pm / Denver Broncos Comments (0)
	The Week 6 injury report lists Royal as questionable. It's hard to trust him with a 4:15 start and a sprained ankle. If he can't play, Darrell Jackson would line up opposite Brandon Marshall.

LaMont Jordan - ...on 10/10/08 7:38pm / New England Patriots Comments (0)
	Jordan missed practice again on Thursday and is doubtful to play in Week 6. He might be doubtful on the injury report, but in all reality he is out.

Chris Chambers - WR ...on 10/10/08 7:27pm / San Diego Chargers Comments (0)
	Chambers was listed as doubtful because of a sprained left ankle and may miss Sunday night's game against the New England Patriots. Chambers sprained his ankle during last Sunday's loss to the Miami Dolphins and didn't practice this week. He was unsure if he would test the ankle during warmups on Sunday. Coach Norv Turner said Chambers' availability would be a game-time decision.
