TNF Wide Receiver Fantasy Football Rankings - Week 5 Thursday WR Updates for Jaylen Waddle, Christian Kirk, Dontayvion Wicks, Rashid Shaheed

Dontayvion Wicks - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

RotoBaller's updated TNF wide receiver (WR) fantasy football rankings for Week 5 of 2024. Read the Thursday updates for our fantasy football WR rankings.

While many fantasy managers avoid early-round running backs due to the high injury rate at the position, wide receivers have been decimated by injuries more than any other position this year. Naturally, that has led to tougher start-or-sit decisions, so we're here to help with our NFL team's updated Week 5 TNF fantasy football wide receiver rankings for 2024. Ahead of Week 5 start-sit calls, let's see where Jaylen Waddle, Darnell Mooney, Dontayvion Wicks, Rashid Shaheed, and Jauan Jennings rank, among others.

Our wide receiver fantasy football rankings for Week 5 are put together by Nick Mariano. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will also find a summary of the important WR fantasy football injury news for this week. There are always key injuries to keep track of, so check back throughout the week for updates.
