Week 5 of the NFL Season is in the books. It is time to look ahead to Week 6. Here are the Week 6 quarterback rankings for fantasy football. Bye weeks are here with C.J. Stroud and J.J. McCarthy/Carson Wentz all out for Week 6. Lamar Jackson is out while Brock Purdy is questionable this week.

Quarterback Rankings Week 6 Fantasy Football

Tier 1: The Big 4

The Big 4 quarterbacks are the best of the best in fantasy football and will all be playing in prime time this weekend:

• Daniels returned in Week 5 from injury after missing two weeks. He had an ok performance, scoring 17 fantasy points, but finishing outside of the top 10 quarterbacks for the week. He only had one touchdown as the rookie running back, “Bill” Jacory Croskey-Merritt scored two on the ground.

Tier 2: Low-End QB1s

These guys are low-end QB1s, and I feel comfortable starting any of them as my QB1 this week:

• Love is coming off a bye week and has a great matchup against the Bengals defense, which has been terrible this season.
• Nix led the Broncos to a victory over the Eagles in Week 5 and now gets a matchup against the only winless team left in the NFL, the New York Jets. The Jets just got destroyed by the Cowboys and Prescott, who threw for four touchdowns.
• The Ravens are dealing with many injuries on both offense and defense, leading to them struggling on both sides of the ball. They have given up at least 37 points in four of five games this season. C.J. Stroud scored 28.76 fantasy points against them in Week 5. To put that in perspective, this was the first game that Stroud had 20 fantasy points since Week 4 of 2024. Stafford is about to have a monster game.
