In Week 6 of NFL fantasy football, Yahoo Sports recommends three tight ends to start: Tyler Higbee from the Los Angeles Rams, Kyle Pitts from the Atlanta Falcons, and Colston Loveland from the Chicago Bears. Higbee is playing well due to an expanded role, while Pitts seeks to rebound after a disappointing start to the season. Loveland, who has potential for improvement, is also suggested as a worthwhile option. Conversely, Dalton Kincaid of the Buffalo Bills, Harold Fannin Jr. of the Cleveland Browns, and Trey McBride of the Arizona Cardinals are advised to be benched based on matchup concerns and inconsistent play. The broader fantasy is influenced by player performance and matchup difficulties as the season progresses.
- •Tyler Higbee is expected to perform well against the Cardinals.
- •Kyle Pitts aims to regain fantasy relevance after a slow start.
- •Colston Loveland has potential for a breakout despite current stats.
- •Dalton Kincaid is deemed a risky start due to matchup challenges.
- •Trey McBride's recent performance raises doubts about his productivity.
