3 Fantasy Football Quarterback Streaming Options for Week 6

Sam Darnold, New York Jets

Yahoo Ownership: 7%

Sam Darnold and the New York Jets' passing game had a decent display last week at home against the Denver Broncos, although with Isaiah Crowell running the New York City Marathon a month early, Darnold didn't have to do too much.

Still, the rookie averaged 9.68 adjusted yards per attempt, the best single-game clip of his brief career, as he completed 10 of 22 throws for 198 yards, 3 scores and 1 interception. Darnold's 18.42 fantasy points were a season high, and he's got a nice home date this week versus the Indianapolis Colts.

The Colts started the year surprisingly well on defense, but they've been hammered by injuries -- to the point where they dressed just 44 players for last week's Thursday game at the Patriots. The extra rest prior to the matchup with Gang Green should benefit the Colts, but this is a defense that has allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks.

Darnold isn't nearly as exciting as the other two streaming options -- we project him for just 15.89 points, making him our QB21 for Week 6 -- but if you're in a deep league, he's worth a look.
