Fantasy Football Week 6 Starter Rankings: Calvin Johnson and A.J. Green Out; Joique Bell and Bishop Sankey Move Up Due to Inactives
By Jason Lisk
This week’s inactives for the early games are starting to role in. We knew about the injury situation in San Diego, where Branden Oliver started the season buried, but got his opportunity last week thanks to injuries. We also knew that Rashad Jennings is out. Today, some notable things to consider. Bishop Sankey in Tennessee has a great matchup, and Shonn Greene is inactive, so he should get the opportunities. Johnathan Stewart is out, so you have a committee situation with Darrin Reaves and Chris Ogbonnaya in Carolina if you are desperate. Joique Bell has been a disappointment to date, and missed last game with a concussion, but should be a favorable start for this week with Reggie Bush now inactive.
Here were my weekly fantasy lineup using salary cap values for the daily fantasy game contests at Fantasy Score. Best of luck to everyone.
