Greg Zuerlein A Low-End Option In Week 5

New York Jets kicker Greg Zuerlein will head to London to take on the Minnesota Vikings in London in Week 5. Zuerlein has been a bit erratic of late, having missed two of his six attempts over the past two games. He will look to get back on track but he may have a hard […]

Fire Up Tucker Kraft As A TE1 Against The Rams In Week 5

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft is trending upwards for the Packers and with Luke Musgrave (ankle) not having logged any practice time this week, Kraft should be in line for a massive workload as the Packers face the Rams in Week 5.

BALLER MOVE: Must-Start POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2 with WR1 Upside ANALYSIS: If you sit someone like San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel Sr., you deserve to see him make plays like this.

Robert Williams III To Miss Two Weeks

Portland Trail Blazers center Robert Williams III (hamstring) will miss at least the next two weeks of action.

His absence should […]

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love (knee) was limited in practice on Wednesday but turned in two full practices on Thursday and Friday and was not on the final injury report heading into Week 5's matchup with the Los Angeles Rams.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Michael Mayer (personal) missed practice all week and has been ruled out for the Week 5 contest on the road in Denver against the division-rival Broncos. Mayer left the team to tend to a personal matter last week, so this will be his second straight absence. It's bad timing for […]

Is Joe Mixon Injured or Playing In Week 5? Should I Start Cam Akers For Fantasy Football?

Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon looked like a slam dunk of a draft pick when he gashed the Indianapolis Colts in Week 1 for 26.80 PPR fantasy points. Indy didn't have an answer for Mixon's blend of power, change-of-direction skills and speed, and he rushed for 159 yards and a touchdown. He averaged 5.3 […]

Packers D/ST A Starting Option Against Rams In Week 5

The Green Bay Packers defense and special teams unit heads west to play the Los Angeles Rams in Week 5 and could be a solid unit to start in fantasy this week. The Rams' offense has been decimated by injury with Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua this season, whittling the pass-catchers down to Demarcus Robinson, […]

Zamir White Downgraded To Out

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White (groin) was considered doubtful to play in Week 5 against the division-rival Denver Broncos on Sunday, but he's now officially been ruled out after missing practice all week. The disappointing White is probably being dropped in shallower fantasy formats after disappointing through the first three weeks and now […]

Is Christian Watson Injured or Playing In Week 5? Should I Start Dontayvion Wicks For Fantasy Football?

The Green Bay Packers entered the 2024 season with arguably the deepest wide receiver room in the league. That depth will be tested on Sunday.

Jacob Markstrom Shines In New Jersey Debut

New Jersey Devils goalie Jacob Markstrom stopped 30 of the 31 shots he faced in his New Jersey debut on Friday afternoon in their victory over the Buffalo Sabres.

Is Zamir White Injured or Playing In Week 5? Should I Start Alexander Mattison For Fantasy Football?

Las Vegas Raiders running back Zamir White has the ignominious title of being one of the biggest busts of this year's fantasy drafts. He's failed to produce a single big game for managers despite having an impressive workload. He's been outshined by his backfield mate Alexander Mattison. White is the RB54 in PPR. He's just […]

Brayden Narveson A Desperation Play In Week 5

Green Bay Packers kicker Brayden Narveson was a top-10 fantasy kicker through the first three weeks of the season, going 9-of-11 in field goal attempts while making each of his six extra-point attempts. In Week 4, the wheels fell off last week against the Vikings. Narveson missed both field goal attempts on the afternoon but […]

Washington Defense Remains Low-End Option In Week 5

The Washington Commanders Defense had an impressive showing last week in Arizona but should remain on the waiver wire in shallow formats this weekend.

This weekend they have a favorable matchup against the Cleveland Browns, […]

Austin Seibert Looks To Be Solid Streaming Option In Week 5

Washington Commanders kicker Austin Seibert has remained perfect since moving to the DMV and has now entered streaming territory in Week 5.

Luke McCaffrey Could Move Up Depth Chart On Sunday

Washington Commanders rookie wide receiver Luke McCaffrey could be deployed as the No. 2 wideout on Sunday afternoon with Noah Brown (groin) ruled out. Last week, Brown was deployed alongside Terry McLaurin, which limited McCaffrey's opportunities. However, fantasy managers should expect the Rice product to see regular playing time against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. […]

Terry McLaurin Looks To Continue Scoring Streak In Week 5

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin has put his slow start behind him as he has found the end zone in each of the past two games.
