The four teams on the bye this week — the Baltimore Ravens, Denver Broncos, Houston Texans and Minnesota Vikings — take away a lot fantasy options that have been weekly contributors to your team.
Two high-scoring quarterbacks, Deshaun Watson and Kirk Cousins, will be on the bench. As will pass catchers like tight end Kyle Rudolph and receivers Adam Thielen, DeAndre Hopkins, Emmanuel Sanders, Stefon Diggs and John Brown. You will also be missing flex options like running backs Philip Lindsay and Latavius Murray, two players who don’t “wow” you with eye-popping stats but are dependable nonetheless.
