Devonta Freeman Leads The Way In Week 5

New York Giants running back Devonta Freeman ran for 60 yards and a touchdown off of 17 carries during the loss to the Cowboys on Sunday. He also had two catches for 27 yards. Although the former Falcon conceded carries once again to Wayne Gallman, who had five for 24 yards, it was his most […]

Evan Engram Finally Scores In Week 5

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram had a catch for 16 yards during the Week 5 loss to the Cowboys. He also added a touchdown off of a three-yard carry in the first quarter. While it is reassuring that the 26-year-old has remained healthy thus far during the 2020 campaign, most are likely disappointed […]

Daniel Jones Quiet Against Cowboys

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones threw for 222 yards on 20-for-33 passing during the narrow loss to the Cowboys on Sunday. He also had a fumble. As the team focused primarily on the run, the sophomore signal-caller didn't make much of a dent on the fantasy end. Now not having logged a touchdown pass […]

Marquise Brown Returns To Form On Sunday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Marquise Brown hauled in six catches for 77 yards and a score during the Week 5 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals. After failing to score a touchdown throughout his first four contests of the 2020 campaign, Hollywood finally found the end zone in addition to logging his second-straight week with at […]

Mark Andrews Continues To Shine In Week 5

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews had another productive outing, finishing the Week 5 win over Cincinnati with six catches for 56 yards and a touchdown. After going quiet throughout the final few weeks of September, Andrews has now tallied three total trips to the end zone over his previous two contests. With the team […]

Browns Defense Picks Off Colts Twice In Week 5

Chris Herndon Posts Another Dud Performance

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon has been horrendous since the season opener. There was hope he could turn it around against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 5. Sadly, Herndon hauled in two of his three targets for 24 yards in the loss. At this point, no one is worth trusting in fantasy leagues […]

Mark Ingram II Doesn't Do Much Once Again

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II ran for 57 yards off 11 carries during the Week 5 win over Cincinnati. The veteran once again had the most attempts out of the backfield but continued to concede carries to Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins, and Lamar Jackson. Outside of his effectiveness inside the red zone, he […]

Jarvis Landry Goes For Season-High 88 Yards

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry caught four of nine targets for 88 yards in a 32-23 win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 5. Landry eclipsed his previous season-high of 61 yards set in Week 1 with the big afternoon. The veteran receiver is having a quiet season overall, having caught just 21 passes […]

Chris Hogan Suffers Injury In Loss

New York Jets wide receiver Chris Hogan (knee) was carted off the field during the Week 5 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. The veteran receiver hauled in all three of his targets for 20 yards before exiting the game. It's unclear how long Hogan will be sidelined, but he doesn't have much fantasy value anyway. […]

Kareem Hunt Scores Sixth TD Of Season

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt carried 20 times for 72 yards and added three receptions for 21 yards and a touchdown in a 32-23 win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 5. Hunt caught a two-yard touchdown from Baker Mayfield in the second quarter, his sixth score of the season. It was an admirable […]

Dalvin Cook Heads Back To The Locker Room

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook suffered an undisclosed injury early in the third quarter of Sunday's matchup against the Seahawks.

Before his departure, the 25-year-old had 17 carries […]

Jamison Crowder Serves As Only Bright Spot For Jets

New York Jets wide receiver Jamison Crowder is basically the only positive thing coming from this team right now.

Lamar Jackson Goes Cold On The Ground In Week 5

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson threw for 180 yards and two touchdowns during the win over the Bengals in Week 5.

Frank Gore Shut Down By Arizona

New York Jets running back Frank Gore was not able to get anything going on the ground during the Week 5 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. He rushed nine times for 30 yards in the loss. It was surprising that Gore saw nine carries with Le'Veon Bell back in the picture. However, the Jets offensive […]

Le'Veon Bell Quiet In Return

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell returned for the Week 5 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals after missing each of the last three games. This team desperately needed a spark, but sadly Bell wasn't able to provide that. He rushed 13 times for 60 yards and caught one pass for seven yards in the […]

Joe Flacco Throws Touchdown In Loss

New York Jets quarterback Joe Flacco was unsurprisingly disappointing during the Week 5 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. To be fair, Flacco is not given many weapons in New York, but he didn't do much at all in this one. He completed 18 of 33 passing attempts for 195 passing yards and one touchdown. There […]

Colts Defense Has Solid Day Against Browns

The Indianapolis Colts Defense had a solid day against the Browns with a kick return for a touchdown and grabbing two interceptions.

Greg Zuerlein Nails All Seven Of His Kicks In Week 5

Dallas Cowboys kicker Greg Zuerlein was perfect in a Week 5 win over the New York Giants. He nailed all four of his extra points and made all three of his field goal tries, including a game-winning kick at the end of the fourth quarter. Zuerlein made kicks from 24, 40, and 34 yards out, […]

Cowboys Defense Actually Does OK In Week 5

The Dallas Cowboys Defense performed well (in fantasy leagues) in a Week 5 win over the New York Giants. Playing against a Giants team that had allowed the second most fantasy points to opposing defenses, the Cowboys allowed 28 points but recorded two sacks, a fumble recovery, and a touchdown. They were likely starter by […]

Eric Ebron Catches Five Balls, Loses Fumble

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Eric Ebron caught five of six targets for 43 yards in a 39-28 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 5. He also lost a fumble in the win.

Isaiah Ford Quiet During Week 5

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Isaiah Ford was not able to do much damage during the Week 5 victory over the San Francisco 49ers. He hauled in both of his targets for 23 yards in the win. He was coming off a performance where he saw a season-high 10 targets, but wasn't able to do much […]

Jake Elliott Misses A Field Goal In Week 5

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott made all three of his extra point tries in a Week 5 loss, but missed his only field goal attempt.

JuJu Smith-Schuster Goes For Just 28 Yards In Week 5

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster caught four of five targets for 28 yards in a 39-28 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 5.
