Overview
- Houston rookie Woody Marks seized lead-back work over Nick Chubb and produced 119 yards with two touchdowns, making him a consensus priority pickup.
- Kenneth Gainwell cashed in after Jaylen Warren’s surprise inactive, totaling 134 yards and two scores, though Pittsburgh’s Week 5 bye and Warren’s possible Week 6 return temper expectations.
- Giants WR Malik Nabers is believed to have torn his ACL, elevating Wan'Dale Robinson into a volume-driven role that positions him as a widely recommended add in PPR formats.
- Rookie QB Jaxson Dart’s first start (111 passing yards, 54 rushing yards, two total TDs) showcased a usable rushing floor, but his passing outlook is dimmer without Nabers.
- Week 5 byes begin for the Falcons, Bears, Packers and Steelers, increasing demand for streamers, with Chargers WR Quentin Johnston (8-98-1 in Week 4) viewed as a startable option in all formats.
