Let’s take a look at the Fantasy Football team of the NFL for week 6 of the competition.

Raheem Mostert - three touchdowns against the Panthers

The highest-scoring player in this week’s Fantasy Football rankings is Mostert, the running back for the Miami Dolphins. In Sunday’s 42-21 victory over the Panthers, he rushed the ball 17 times for 115 yards and two touchdowns. He also caught three passes for 17 yards and scored an additional touchdown.

Mostert dominated opportunities when the game was in question and led Miami’s backfield with a season-high 20 touches. He recorded his second 100-yard rushing performance of the campaign, highlighted by a long gain of 48 yards, thanks to the additional volume. Mostert also benefited from the incredibly efficient Dolphins’ offense, recording his third multi-score effort of the year. However, it is unlikely that he will continue to maintain this level of performance, given his 11 total touchdowns in only six games. Moreover, he could have to share the backfield in Week 7 against the Eagles, as Jeff Wilson (returning from injured reserve) also vies for a position.

Amon-Ra St. Brown

St. Brown had an impressive game in Sunday’s 20-6 win over the Buccaneers, recording 12 receptions on 15 targets for 124 yards and a touchdown.

After missing a game due to an abdominal injury, the Lions wide receiver returned to the field with no signs of the issue. He had a season-high in targets, receptions, and yards. His performance was highlighted by two lengthy receptions of 27 and 23 yards, with the former resulting in a touchdown. Even though St. Brown has been limited to seven or eight targets in three out of five games this season, he has managed to achieve over 100 receiving yards in three games.
