Week 6 Best and Worst WR/TE Matchups: Jakobi Meyers, Wan Dale Robinson set up for success
In Week 6, fantasy football players must consider slot receiver and boundary wideout matchups when making start-sit decisions. Slot receivers with favorable matchups include Trey McBride (Cardinals vs. Rams) and Wan'Wan Dale Robinson (Titans vs. Colts). These players are facing weak secondary defenses, which could lead to higher completion rates and yards from the slot, providing valuable fantasy production.
On the other hand, slot receivers with unfavorable matchups to watch out for include Marvin Harrison Jr. (Cardinals) and Isaiah Bond (Browns). These players are expected to face strong secondary defenses, which may limit their production.
For boundary wideouts, Nico Collins (Texans vs. Jaguars) and Marvin Harrison Jr. (Texans) are in favorable matchups, with high EPA per drop back against weaker defensive lines. Houston's strong passing game and boundary defenders could allow these wideouts to rack up air yards.
