Injury Report and Waiver Wire Targets
The Rams have already announced that star receiver Puka Nacua won’t play in Week 7 because of an ankle injury. Since L.A. plays on Sunday morning, managers should go ahead and adjust their lineups ahead of time.
Calvin Ridley, Josh Downs, Terry McLaurin, Christian Watson and Ricky Pearsall qre also out, while Jets wideout Garrett Wilson is listed as doubtful. Jakobi Meyers, Stefon Diggs, Jalen Coker, Dontavyion Wicks and Deebo Samuel are among those listed as questionable.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers haven’t made designations for Monday night yet, but Mike Evans, Chris Godwin and Emeka Egbuka have all missed practice time this week.
Denver Broncos wideout Troy Franklin might be the most enticing waiver target this week, as he’ll face a New York Giants defense that has surrendered the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing receivers. Franklin has logged at least three receptions in three straight games. He’s rostered in just 22 percent of Yahoo leagues and 33 percent of ESPN leagues.
Kayshon Boutte’s matchup with the Tennessee Titans isn’t quite as attractive, but the New England Patriots receiver is coming off a 95-yard, two-touchdown performance. He’s still available in over 60 percent of Yahoo leagues and 70 percent of ESPN leagues.
Other wide receivers to consider this week include Kendrick Bourne, Tre Tucker, Elic Ayomanor and Christian Kirk.
