Doug Martin Does Nothing In Loss

Oakland Raiders running back Doug Martin had no impact in Sunday' loss versus the Chargers. Martin finished with only one rushing yard on two attempts, with no catches in the passing game on one target. His role has been very limited over the first few weeks of the season and will continue to be limited […]

Marshawn Lynch Fails To Make An Impact

Oakland Raiders running back Marshawn Lynch had his worst game of the season in Sunday's loss to the Chargers. Prior to this game, Lynch had posted a touchdown or 100 rushing yards in each of his four games this season, but that streak was snapped today. He was held to only 31 yards on nine […]

Derek Carr Struggles All Around On Sunday

Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr had a good bit of struggles this Sunday versus the Chargers. He finished with 268 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, bringing very limited fantasy value. This was set to be an offensive shootout with an over-under set at 52, but we got nothing of the sorts. Carr has been […]

Chester Rogers A Good Option In Week 6

The Indianapolis Colts throw a lot, and with wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (chest) dealing with an injury, Chester Rogers is a good waiver wire option in Week 6. Rogers showed a connection with quarterback Andrew Luck in Week 5 and if it weren't for some drops, he would have had an even better game against the […]

TJ Jones Targetless in Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver TJ Jones wasn't targeted in the win over the Packers. Jones has only been looked at five times this season, pulling in two of them. Unless a major injury happens to the Lions receiving corps, Jones will likely continue to be an afterthought in the offense.

Jake Elliott Makes Two Field Goals and an Extra Point in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made two field goals in Week 5 along with an extra point. His field goals came from 30 and 28 yards out. Elliott has been a solid fantasy kicker this season, making all eight of his extra point attempts and six of his eight field goal tries.

Shelton Gibson Catches a Long Pass in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Shelton Gibson caught one pass on Sunday, gaining 48 yards. He only made one catch, but he made it count, gaining almost half the field. He's got some nice upside long term, but likely won't make enough noise this season to be worth rostering in redraft leagues.

Niles Paul Sees Plenty Of Work Against Chiefs

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Niles Paul was surprisingly effective against the Chiefs on Sunday, grabbing seven passes for 65 yards. Paul was targeted nine times. With starting tight end Austin Seferian-Jenkins limited due to issues with his core muscles and failing to record a catch, Paul slid into the role of the team's main tight […]

Jordan Matthews Targeted Just Once in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Jordan Matthews was targeted just once on Sunday, catching it for a four-yard gain. Matthews hasn't done much in his return to the Eagles, and his playing time dropped after he played on 47 snaps in Week 4. He's not a legitimate fantasy option in any format at this point.

Isaiah Crowell Goes Off On Sunday

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell had himself a day in the win over the Broncos on Sunday, finishing up rushing for 219 yards and a touchdown off of 15 carries. The Denver defense had no answers for the 25-year-old as he seemingly toyed with them all game long, even breaking out a massive […]

Nelson Agholor Catches Four Passes in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor caught all four of his targets in Week 5, gaining 45 yards. The four targets was a season low for Agholor, and he's been quickly trending downwards since Carson Wentz took over at quarterback. He's on the WR3/4 borderline and is better as a depth piece than a starter […]

Brandin Cooks, Cooper Kupp In Concussion Protocol

Two of the top three Los Angeles Rams wide receivers entered the concussion protocol Sunday afternoon. Wideouts Cooper Kupp and Brandin Cooks both exited Sunday's game with their respective head injuries. Head coach Sean McVay stated that both of them seemed to be in good spirits after the game, but we will have to see […]

Alshon Jeffery Catches Just Two Passes in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Alshon Jeffery was targeted eight times in Week 5, but only came down with two passes, gaining 39 yards. Jeffery seemed to be running well, but he was shadowed by Vikings defensive back Xavier Rhodes, who was able to limit Jeffery's chances. He'll have another tough matchup against the Giants and […]

Dallas Goedert Targeted Just Twice in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles rookie tight end Dallas Goedert was only targeted twice in Week 5, catching both for 16 yards. Since Alshon Jeffery returned to the field, Goedert has only caught four balls for 29 yards. He's an excellent dynasty/keeper piece, but can't be started this season as long as the Eagles pass catchers are healthy.

Golden Tate Has Five Catches In Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver Golden Tate had an average game in the win against the Packers on Sunday. He hauled in five of seven targets for 52 yards. Tate has now had at least seven targets in every game this season. The 30-year-old slot receiver isn't expected to score every week, but it would have […]

Zach Ertz Finally Scores a Touchdown in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz finally scored a touchdown in Week 5 against the Minnesota Vikings. He caught 10 passes on 11 targets, gaining 110 yards. He's made at least 10 catches in three games already this season, and he's on pace for about 1400 yards this season. He's one of the top-three tight […]

Sam Darnold Throws Three Touchdowns On Sunday

New York Jets quarterback Sam Darnold was productive against a suddenly faulty Denver defense on Sunday. The rookie, who has been inefficient over the past few weeks, finished up throwing for 198 yards and three touchdowns. Nonetheless, Darnold still has a long way to go before he is considered fantasy relevant but will look to […]

Wendell Smallwood Scores a Touchdown in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles running back Wendell Smallwood ran the ball three times for 27 yards, adding three catches for 44 yards and a touchdown. With Darren Sproles (hamstring) out and Corey Clement (quad) active but not recording a touch, Smallwood ran well behind Jay Ajayi. He's mostly a replacement-level talent, but Smallwood could continue to get […]

Corey Clement Doesn't Touch a Football in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement was active for Week 5 against the Minnesota Vikings, but did not record a touch in the game. Clement has been dealing with a quad injury and hasn't touched the ball in a game since Week 3. The Eagles play again on Thursday, and with Jay Ajayi (knee) also […]

Tyler Boyd Cools Off In Week 5

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd struggled during Sunday's 27-17 victory over the Miami Dolphins. After hauling in 23 receptions for 323 yards and two touchdowns over the last three weeks, Boyd caught only four passes for 44 yards. With running back Joe Mixon (knee) returning and reclaiming a significant stake in the team's offense, […]

Equanimeous St. Brown Has 89 Yards Receiving

Green Bay Packers rookie wide receiver Equanimeous St. Brown had three catches for 89 yards in a Week 5 matchup against the Detroit Lions. He recorded 54 of those yards on one catch late in the game. St. Brown was invisible for most of the night. He received his first offensive snaps of the year […]

Kenny Golladay Impressive Against Packers

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kenny Golladay caught four of his nine targets for 98 yards and a touchdown in the win over the Packers on Sunday. His score was the only points the Lions put up in the second half. Golladay is establishing himself as one of the best young receivers in the NFL, and […]

Jay Ajayi Struggles and Gets Hurt in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jay Ajayi had a rough game on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings, running the ball eight times for 29 yards. He also caught one pass for five yards, but hurt his knee and lost a critical goal-line fumble. Ajayi was out-gained by replacement level player Wendell Smallwood, 71-34. Ajayi hasn't seen […]

Keelan Cole Catches Four Passes In Week 5

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole brought in four of his 10 targets in Sunday's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, finishing with 70 receiving yards. It was a good bounce back for the second-year receiver, who struggled in Week 4, but wide receiver Donte Moncrief's increased usage suggests that Cole's role in this offense […]

Lance Kendricks Catches Touchdown in Loss

Green Bay Packers tight end Lance Kendricks recorded a touchdown catch in a Week 5 loss against the Detroit Lions. He caught two passes for eight yards on two targets for the day. The touchdown came on a goal line play action pass from a heavy formation. Kendricks is simply not a significant part of […]

Carson Wentz Tosses Two Touchdowns in Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz completed 24 of his 35 passes for 311 yards in Week 5, including two touchdowns. Wentz also carried the ball five times for 26 yards, losing a fumble. That's now two games in a row for Wentz with 300 passing yards and two touchdowns. He's moving his way back into […]

Donte Moncrief Leads Team In Targets In Week 5

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Donte Moncrief was targeted a team-high 15 times in Sunday's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Moncrief hauled in six of those passes, finishing with 76 receiving yards for the Jaguars. In his first season with the team, the former Colt has seen his usage increase each week and it's likely […]

A.J. Green Nets Over 100 Yards Against Miami

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green was effective on Sunday in the win over the Miami Dolphins. After getting doubled up on the outside initially, the 30-year-old was moved to the slot and made the most of it, finishing up the day pulling in six of his 10 targets for 112 yards. Though he wasn't […]

Marvin Jones Scores In Week 5

Detroit Lions wide receiver Marvin Jones made his only reception count in a 31-23 win over the Packers on Sunday. Hauling in an eight-yard touchdown pass just before halftime, it was the only one of four targets that Jones was able to corral. It would have been a disappointing day otherwise for Jones had he […]

Joe Mixon Solid In Return

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon (knee) made his return to the lineup with a vengeance during Sunday's win over the Miami Dolphins. Mixon, who got a full workload despite claims that he would be eased back into action, rushed the ball 22 times, finishing with 93 yards on the ground. He also got some […]
