Both Philadelphia Eagles WR A.J. Brown and New York Giants WR Wan’Dale Robinson have performed below their fantasy football expectations in 2025. But things can change fast in fantasy football, and one of these receivers could be right on the edge of turning things around. Here is a breakdown on who to play between Robinson and Brown in fantasy football in week six.

Philadelphia Eagles QB Jalen Hurts and WR A.J. Brown continue to struggle to establish their once-elite connection this season. Outside of a 109-yard receiving yard game in week three against the Los Angeles Rams, Brown has a combined 85 receiving yards in his other four games. In two of those contests, he had under 10 receiving yards. This could simply be an early-season slump between the two, but it is concerning given Brown’s production with the Eagles in years past to start seasons. His lowest total of receiving yards he has had through the first five games with the Eagles was in 2022, where he recorded 436.
Brown will have a chance to bounce back against a poor Giants’ secondary in week six. The Giants are currently giving up the ninth-most passing yards a game, 237.2. In five games, they have allowed an opposing wide receiver over 90 receiving yards four times. Brown could very well be the fifth in week six, and one positive through his struggles that helps with the chance of this happening is the number of targets he has been getting. After just receiving one target in week one’s game against the Dallas Cowboys, Brown has gone on to get eight or more targets in the next five games.
