Of all the positions in fantasy football, the byes take the biggest chunk out of the wide receiver ranks in Week 6.
With Amon-Ra St. Brown, Ja'Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson among those missing in action, fantasy managers need to dig a little deeper to find points in the receiving game.
Perhaps someone will step up his game the way Christian Watson of the Green Bay Packers did last Sunday.
Watson caught six passes for 143 yards and two touchdowns to finish as the WR2 for the week. On the season, he's the WR3, trailing only Jaxon Smith-Njigba and CeeDee Lamb.
ON BYE: Cincinnati, Detroit, Miami, Minnesota
