3 Fantasy Football Quarterback Streaming Options for Week 6

Jameis Winston had a bye week to prepare for an injury-ravaged Falcons defense. Which other low-owned quarterbacks should you look to stream this week?

Quarterback streaming isn't for everyone, but if you're in a standard league -- like a 10- or 12-team league that features just one starting signal caller -- grabbing productive quarterbacks who have good matchups off the waiver wire is often doable.

Sure, you won't have the luxury of setting it and forgetting it with Aaron Rodgers as your quarterback, but when the top-end signal callers draw a tough matchup, their upside can be matched by a waiver-wire option in a more favorable situation.

In Week 5, Blake Bortles went full Bortles, tanking for most of the game before doing work in garbage time to end up with a respectable fantasy day. He finished with 20.6 fantasy points, which checked in 11th at the position for the week. Through five weeks, we've been inconsistent, but our top streaming pick is averaging 17.91 fantasy points, a per-game clip that ranks 17th at the position.

If you're looking for some quarterback options from the waiver wire -- regardless of league size -- we have you covered. Here are three quarterbacks owned in fewer than roughly 30% of Yahoo leagues who are in a good spot this week.
