The pool of available players will shrink a bit for fantasy football managers in Week 6. That's because four teams will be out of action with the first bye weeks of the 2022 NFL season.
The Detroit Lions, Houston Texans, Las Vegas Raiders and Tennessee Titans are on a bye this week. So notable playmakers such as Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown, Raiders receiver Davante Adams, Titans running back Derrick Henry and others will need to be replaced in fantasy lineups.
But there will also be fewer players available as potential fill-ins, making it even more crucial for fantasy managers to make the right start/sit decisions with the players already on their rosters.
