The Buffalo Bills (4-1) will visit the Atlanta Falcons (2-2) in Week 6. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding TE Dawson Knox.
Is Dawson Knox Playing in Week 6?
Knox is not on the injury report and will play this week. With Dalton Kincaid out, Knox might see an increased role in this Bills offense.
We’ll continue to monitor the Bills’ injury report leading up to kickoff for any changes. You can also visit and bookmark our Fantasy News Tracker for the latest updates.
Should You Start or Sit Dawson Knox in Week 6?
Dalton Kincaid has been effective for fantasy purposes, but the TE position as a hole in Buffalo hasn’t drawn much volume during the Josh Allen era.
Dawson Knox was there before Kincaid and was the featured option while the prospect gained reps, and yet, he’s never had a 50-catch season.
He’s yet to clear two receptions in a game this season, and while we know to expect a handful of targets, asking him to get to even 12 PPR points is optimistic.
Khalil Shakir figures to be the biggest beneficiary of Kincaid’s absence, while Knox is more of a low upside desperation play.
