Week 6 vs. Minnesota Vikings
Rookie Skylar Thompson will make his first NFL start this week as Tua Tagovailoa and Teddy Bridgewater are each in the concussion protocol. Thompson was essentially the preseason MVP with some stellar performances, but Week 5 showcased why preseason and regular season are very different games. Thompson wasn't that great as he played all but one snap in Week 5. He finished with 166 yards, no touchdowns and an interception against the Jets. He gets a middle-of-the-road matchup in Week 6 against the Vikings. While Thompson looked good in the preseason, and has an elite WR duo to throw to, we wouldn't recommend playing him in Week 6. He looked pretty bad in Week 5, and there are a lot more quarterbacks with promise this week.
