With all but one game left in Week 5 of the 2022 NFL season, we are now turning our attention to the fantasy football waiver wire for Week 6.
Week 6 will be the first in which fantasy managers have to navigate bye weeks, with four teams getting a week off. Here’s a look at the teams and their fantasy-relevant players who won’t be in action this week:
Tennessee Titans: QB Ryan Tannehill, RB Derrick Henry, WR Robert Woods, Titans D/ST
Detroit Lions: QB Jared Goff, RB D’Andre Swift, RB Jamaal Williams, WR Amon-Ra St. Brown, TE T.J. Hockenson
Las Vegas Raiders: QB Derek Carr, RB Josh Jacobs, WR Davante Adams, WR Hunter Renfrow, TE Darren Waller
Houston Texans: RB Dameon Pierce, WR Brandin Cooks, WR Nico Collins
Bye weeks will not only begin this week, but they’ll extend through Week 14.
Now, let’s see who some of the best waiver wire additions are ahead of Week 6, a list that will also include some bye-week fill-ins to consider.
Note: Players on this list are owned in 50% of leagues or less.
