Chester Rogers, WR, Indianapolis Colts

In Week 5 with T.Y. Hilton and Jack Doyle out of action, Chester Rogers played a vital role in the passing game. With the duo continuing to miss practice and looking doubtful to play on Sunday, Rogers will remain one of Andrew Luck's favorite targets in Week 6.

Against the Patriots, Rogers led the Colts' receivers with 11 targets, with only tight Eric Ebron seeing more looks. The increased activity wasn't much of a surprise as the third-year wideout collected 11 targets in Week 4 as well. In his last two games, Rogers has 16 catches for 151 yards. While the defensive challenge becomes a bit stiffer against the Jets this week, the Colts will likely still be in a points-chasing mode as they are 2.5-point road dogs on Sunday. Rogers, Ebron, and Nyheim Hines will be the beneficiaries once again with Doyle and Hilton likely out.

New York also has a bit of a weakness when it comes to wide receivers as they have allowed the eighth-most fantasy points to the position this season. Trumaine Johnson and Buster Skrine both have missed practice and could sit out, weakening an already middling Jets' pass defense.
