There are several stars who will be absent during the Week 6 NFL schedule, as Fantasy football injuries continue to rack up around the league. Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson went down with a hamstring injury last week, putting him on the injured reserve. Dolphins running back De'Von Achane is also on the injured reserve following a knee injury, leaving major holes in Fantasy football lineups across the country. Some of the other NFL injuries to monitor include Browns quarterback Deshaun Watson (shoulder) (update: ruled out Friday afternoon) and Bears running back Khalil Herbert (ankle).  

Luckily, with the SportsLine Projection Model, you can get live-updated projections that can help you inform your lineup decisions in the event of any Fantasy football injuries. SportsLine's model beat human experts for the past several seasons, especially when there were big differences in ranking! It is simulating Week 6 10,000 times multiple times daily to give you the most up-to-date information.

One Fantasy football injury that the model can help you deal with: Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson. There are not many players who are as impactful in Fantasy football leagues as Jefferson, who ranks third in the NFL in receiving yards (571) heading into Week 6. His hamstring injury is not expected to be of the season-ending variety, but he will still miss at least the next four games on the injured reserve. The passing attack should be more balanced now, with tight end T.J. Hockenson, wide receiver K.J. Osborn and wide receiver Jordan Addison expected to see more action.
