Ian Rapoport reported there is 'some hope' Lamar Jackson (ankle) plays in Week 6.
Fantasy Impact:
Jackson has been rehabbing to get back on the field and Rapoport added Jackson was a lot closer than people realized to playing in Week 5. It's all good news for Jackson and his fantasy owners for a potential return to the field. The Ravens are at the Browns in Week 6 in the early window of games.

Deebo Samuel will get an MRI on his hamstring injury.

Rapoport said the team ruled Samuel out right away, but Rapoport also said Deebo possibly further injured himself fumbling and landing on the ball after injuring his hamstring. However, the main injury is the hamstring, according to Rapoport. Rapoport is speculating it's going to be multiple weeks before Samuel is back. Rapoport specifically mentioned Cooks as a fill-in but Cowing could also get targets as well as Watkins. It's more likely guys like Kittle and McCaffrey get more involved in the passing game as well.

The Titans now rank dead last in points scored and offensive yards, which led to a question for head coach Robert Saleh at his postgame press conference about whether the team needs to consider benching the quarterback in hopes of sparking better offensive results. Saleh said it is not on the team’s radar.
“Cam Ward’s our starting quarterback,” Saleh said. “We’re going to give him every opportunity to be successful this year. We’re going to continue working with him, grinding with him and trying to help him get better.”

The story pointed out Ward hasn't been improving, and is possibly heading in the other direction. The story mentioned Tennessee punted four times and turned the ball over twice before failing on two fourth downs in the fourth quarter of a 26-3 loss that dropped them to 0-5 on the season. They ended the game with 187 yards and Ward was 23-of-36 for 170 yards while being sacked four times. Trubisky is the Titans backup, he's 32 and doesn't necessarily offer a lot more upside, but either way the Titans appearing to be riding things out with Ward. At this point, it wouldn't be shocking if the Titans targeted a QB in the talent-rich 2027 NFL Draft.

Steelers WR Roman Wilson is expected to miss a couple of weeks due to a finger injury suffered Sunday, per source.

Fowler added Wilson is still gathering info and seeking a second opinion. The rookie Bernard was the team's top target at WR in Week 5, catching six balls for 80 yards on nine targets. Wilson was coming off back to back strong games in Weeks 3 and 4, so it's a tough loss as he was disappearing off fantasy waiver wires. Metcalf wasn't a fantasy factor in Week 5, so Bernard becomes an attractive and interesting potential waiver pickup for those needing help at WR. Bernard was a solid prospect in the NFL Draft this past spring and was considered a second round target in dynasty league drafts, so there is some fantasy potential there. But the Steelers passing game has been a little inconsistent when it comes to fantasy production.
