Overview
- Josh Allen holds the No. 1 spot for Week 5 against New England, with Buffalo’s offense keeping him close to matchup-proof thanks to his rushing and red-zone usage.
- ClutchPoints lists Lamar Jackson as out with a hamstring injury and says Cooper Rush will start for the Ravens against the Bengals.
- Justin Herbert remains a QB1 option versus Washington, though Los Angeles faces protection issues with Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt sidelined against a strong pass rush.
- Justin Fields draws the week’s most favorable matchup against a Dallas defense ranked last versus quarterbacks, giving him overall QB1 upside.
- Jaxson Dart’s rushing keeps him streamable against New Orleans, while C.J. Stroud trends up versus an injury-thinned Baltimore defense; Brock Purdy is questionable with a toe injury and Jayden Daniels’ status remains uncertain.
