Read Justin Fields's fantasy football outlook for Week 5 of the NFL season. Notes, updates, analysis and advice including predictions for his upcoming matchup.
Many in the world of fantasy football are looking forward to the upside that Fields provides to a very boring Bears offense. There are pieces to work with in this offense, but the utilization has yet to click. The struggles of the play-calling show in advanced analytics as he ranks near the bottom in both yards per attempt (6.7) and fantasy points per drop back (0.37). This week could prove to be yet another tough game as he will be facing a Raiders defense that ranks 18th in points allowed to the position (18.6 FPPG). Fields' time as a weekly starter in fantasy is coming, but it will not begin this week.
