Kenneth Walker III’s Week 6 Fantasy Outlook vs. Los Angeles Chargers
Walker entered Week 6 leading all running backs in scrimmage yards at 155.3 per game. Only Jahmyr Gibbs had produced more fantasy points at the position, and only Gibbs had handled more touches.
The increased workload has not come at the expense of efficiency. Walker posted an 81% gain rate in 2025 and sits at 81.6% this season. His rate of carries gaining at least five yards has climbed from 32.1% to 40.2%, while his 10-plus-yard gain rate has improved from 14.9% to 16.1%.

That combination of volume and explosiveness is exactly what fantasy managers wanted. Andy Reid established the heavier workload in Week 1 and has continued to lean into it.

Even if the offense becomes more pass-heavy as the season progresses, that could help Walker in another way by reducing how often he runs into loaded boxes. His current loaded-box carry rate sits at 49.4%, above the league average of 41%.
Walker checks in at RB2 for Week 6. He has developed into one of the most valuable backs in fantasy and belongs in lineups without hesitation.
Javonte Williams’ Week 6 Fantasy Outlook at Green Bay
Williams finished with 14.2 PPR points in Dallas’ ugly Thursday night performance, which is a result fantasy managers can live with given how little went right around him.
His touchdown role remains especially valuable. Thirteen of Williams’ 17 rushing scores over the past two seasons have come from inside the 3-yard line, making him the clear option when Dallas gets stopped near the goal line.

Williams has also caught multiple passes in every game this season, giving him another way to maintain his weekly floor. The concern is rushing volume, as he has failed to reach 12 carries in three of five games.
That appears to be more about game script than Williams himself. Dallas’ defense has repeatedly pushed the offense into aggressive situations, limiting opportunities to settle into a heavy rushing approach.
Williams sits at RB7 for Week 6, firmly inside the RB1 range. The touchdown role and receiving work keep him locked into fantasy lineups, even if his ceiling may depend on Dallas finding more favorable game scripts.
