Eddy Pineiro Makes Three Of Four Field-Goal Attempts In Week 5

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro converted on three of his four field goal attempts in a Week 5 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Robbie Anderson Held To One Catch In Week 5 Loss

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Robbie Anderson finished with just one reception for 32 yards on five targets in the team's Week 5 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Terrace Marshall Jr. Has Four Receptions In Week 5 Loss

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. hauled in all four of his targets for 30 yards in a Week 5 blowout loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Shi Smith Leads Panthers Receivers In Week 5 Loss

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Shi Smith caught four of his five targets for 69 yards in a Week 5 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

DJ Moore Posts Season-High 59 Yards In Week 5 Loss

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Moore hauled in four of his eight targets for 59 yards and added eight rushing yards in a 37-15 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Chargers Defense Gives Up 28 Points In Week 5

The Los Angeles Chargers defense/special teams failed to deliver for fantasy purposes in a Week 5 victory over the Cleveland Browns. The Chargers did come away with one interception, but allowed 28 points and did not record any sacks. They are a difficult unit to depend on, especially with Joey Bosa (groin) injured, but could […]

Taylor Bertolet Perfect In Debut With Chargers

Los Angeles Chargers kicker Taylor Bertolet drilled all three of his field goal attempts and three extra-point tries in a 30-28 victory over the Cleveland Browns.

Gerald Everett Disappears In Week 5 Victory

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Gerald Everett recorded just one catch for two yards on three targets in the team's Week 5 victory against the Cleveland Browns.

Mike Williams Tops Century Mark Again In Week 5 Win

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams tallied 10 receptions on 13 targets and racked up 134 yards in a Week 5 victory over the Cleveland Browns. Williams posted season-high totals in targets, receptions, and yardage in this one as he continues to be the favorite weapon of Justin Herbert in Keenan Allen's (hamstring) absence. […]

Saints DST A Middling Option For Week 5

The New Orleans Saints defense/special teams has not been a reliable unit for fantasy to begin the season and will face a Seattle Seahawks team that is surprisingly 11th in the league in points scored per game. This is mainly due to Seattle's 48-point explosion in Week 4, though, as the offense was not nearly […]

Adam Trautman A Weak Play In Week 5

New Orleans Saints tight end Adam Trautman led the team in tight end snaps last week and will look to stay involved in a Week 5 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks.

Jimmie Ward To Make Regular Season Debut In Week 5

Tony Jones Jr. Waived By Saints

The New Orleans Saints waived running back Tony Jones Jr. on Saturday. The 24-year-old appeared in just two games this season and was a healthy scratch in Weeks 3 and 4.

Duane Brown Activated From Injured Reserve

The New York Jets have activated offensive tackle Duane Brown from Injured Reserve ahead of the team's Week 5 matchup against the Miami Dolphins.

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson reportedly traveled to Los Angeles on Friday to receive an injection intended to alleviate discomfort he is experiencing near his throwing shoulder.

Tyquan Thornton Elevated To Active Roster

New England Patriots wide receiver Tyquan Thornton has been activated onto the team's 53-man roster ahead of a Week 5 bout with the Detroit Lions. The rookie returned to practice earlier this week after suffering a collarbone injury in August that landed him on Injured Reserve. It's unclear how involved Thornton will be right away, […]

Harrison Butker To Miss Week 5

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker (ankle) was unable to practice this week and has subsequently been ruled out ahead of the team's Week 5 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Butker has not taken the field since the season opener. Matt Ammendola replaced him initially, but after a shaky performance in Week 3, he […]

Mark Ingram II Not A Fantasy Option For Week 5

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram II drew the start in Week 4 but is likely to be relegated to a backup role in a Week 5 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. Alvin Kamara (ribs) is officially listed as questionable but stated that he feels good and plans to play on Sunday. Ingram sustained […]

Chris Olave A Fantasy WR2 For Week 5

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave has had a hot start to his rookie season and should continue to be highly targeted in a Week 5 matchup with the Seattle Seahawks.

Michael Bandy Elevated To Active Roster

Juju Smith-Schuster Dealing With Hamstring Tightness

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) was a full participant in practice on Thursday and Friday but had his hamstring tighten and was limited during Saturday's session. Head coach Andy Reid stated that he believes Smith-Schuster will suit up on Monday against the Las Vegas Raiders. Fantasy managers relying on Smith-Schuster may want […]

Treylon Burks Placed On Injured Reserve

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks (toe) was placed on Injured Reserve.

Taylor Bertolet Elevated To Chargers Roster

The Los Angeles Chargers elevated kicker Taylor Bertolet to their active roster ahead of a Week 5 matchup with the Cleveland Browns.
