Week 6 Fantasy Football Rankings: Wide Receivers /

Welcome to Week 6 of the fantasy football season!

It’s time to start thinking about setting your lineups, and we’re here to help with our initial fantasy player rankings! I’ve used a full-point PPR scoring system for these rankings, which you can use in coordination with the Week 6 edition of Start Em, Sit Em. At Sports Illustrated, we always have you covered!

At wideout, Ja’Marr Chase is atop the list after a 50-point explosion a week ago. DJ Moore is in the top 10 based on his recent success and a nice matchup against the Vikings, and Jordan Addison is in the top 15 as the top option for Minnesota with Justin Jefferson out of action. Deebo Samuel, who has three targets in the last two weeks and faces the Browns this week, has fallen out of the top 30 wide receivers.
