  • NE Wide Receiver #87
    Personalize your Rotoworld feed by favoriting players
    Drake Maye carved up the Vegas secondary to the tune of 376 yards and four touchdowns, with almost none of it going to be nominal No. 1 wideout. Doubs, who last week against the Bills had 58 yards and two touchdowns, nearly came down with a short touchdown grab in the third quarter on a nice touch throw from Maye. The potential return of A.J. Brown (ankle) in Week 6 against the Jets could limit Doubs’ targets going forward. With Maye cooking, Doubs remains a potential flex option in 14-team formats going forward.
  • CIN Wide Receiver #1
    Chase returned from a concussion he suffered last week, seeing 10 targets in a productive fantasy day. He saw a goal-line fade target on the Bengals’ first drive and was later tackled at the one-yard line towards the end of the first half. Joe Burrow missed Chase for a 70-yard touchdown in the second half but Chase made a miraculous catch with his right arm for a 45-yard touchdown later in the half. He finishes with a successful fantasy day and is squarely in the WR1 ranks heading into the Bengals’ Week 6 bye.
  • NE Running Back #38
    Stevenson was splitting the backfield workload with TreVeyon Henderson before Henderson sustained a potentially serious ankle injury in the second quarter and did not return. Stevenson was somewhat efficient with his opportunities, breaking a few tackles against a low-energy, low-effort Raiders defense. His touchdown came on a goal line carry in the first half. It was his second score of the year. Stevenson will be a top-12 fantasy option next week against the Jets if Henderson is sidelined.
  • IND Running Back #28
    Taylor added 37 receiving yards on three catches. As JJ Watt noted on the broadcast, the Steelers knew that the Colts love running off tackle, so they sent extra rushers and had their defensive ends bracket the tackles to force the Colts to run up the gut. It didn’t work out well for the Colts. Taylor had no running room all day and was stuffed inside the three-yard line three separate times. Things will likely be better next week against the Titans, but the Colts are going to need to fix their issues in the interior of their offensive line.
  • NE Quarterback #10
    Maye had all day to operate in the pocket against a Raiders front seven that entered Week 5 with the league’s ninth highest pressure rate and fourth highest quick pressure rate. He attacked the Vegas secondary downfield from start to finish, hitting Kyle Williams and Pop Douglas for long touchdowns, and Williams for another long gain that put the Pats inside the five yard line. Maye’s rushing score came on a green scramble in the third quarter. Fully emerged from his early-season struggles, Maye is once again carving up opposing coverage units and causing fits with his scrambling ability. Maye, with eight total touchdowns over his past two outings, should be locked into lineups next week against a middling Jets secondary.
  • PIT Running Back #30
    Warren got the Steelers on the board with an 80-yard catch-and-run, where he simply beat the Colts defenders down the sideline. He also ripped off a 50-yard touchdown run in the first quarter. The Steelers only had one other play go for longer than 17 yards on the day. Since Rico Dowdle has been out with a toe injury, Warren has emerged as a true RB1 in fantasy football. Even when Dowdle returns, you have to think that the Steelers have seen enough that they need to give Warren the lion’s share of the work.
  • GB Quarterback #10
    With the Packers’ backs against the wall in a rivalry grudge match, Love had one of the best starts of his NFL life by simply cutting it loose. His 367 yards passing were the third most of his career, and accompanied by zero turnovers. He found each of Christian Watson, Matthew Golden and Tucker Kraft for at least one 46-yard gain, including a 53-yard touchdown to Watson. That does not include an earlier 42-yard scoring strike to Watson. Each score had serious air underneath them. This really was Love airing it out, something less competent quarterbacks had been struggling to do vs. the Bears’ vulnerable defense. We have seen this Love and Packers movie before — a step forward not followed by another move in the right direction — but neither Packers fans nor fantasy managers could have asked for more this afternoon. Love will have a good shot at keeping the good vibes going vs. the Cowboys’ struggling defense in Week 6.
  • HOU Wide Receiver #18
    Harrison, 24, gets a fresh start partway through his third NFL season. The former first-round pick has averaged just 47.8 receiving yards per game in 33 career games. Adjusting to a new scheme on the fly could be challenging, and Harrison has not proven himself to be a reliable fantasy contributor. It could be tough sledding for fantasy managers, but if Harrison quickly adjusts to his new team, he has a clear runway to No. 2 wide receiver duties next to Nico Collins. He should be rostered in 12-team leagues. The Cardinals are also sending a 2027 seventh-round pick to the Texans in exchange for a 2027 sixth-round pick.
  • CIN Quarterback #9
    The Bengals offense mostly had a smooth-sailing day against the lackadaisical Dolphins defense. After a high-volume Week 4, Burrow threw 32 passes, tossing touchdowns to Mike Gesicki, Samaje Perine, and Tanner Hudson in the first half. He just missed Ja’Marr Chase for a 70-yard score in the second half, but later connected with Chase for a 45-yard score in the third quarter. Burrow was hardly under pressure and had plenty of time to make accurate throws and take deep shots against Miami. He is a fantasy QB1 heading into the Bengals’ bye and gets a middling defense in the Ravens for Week 7.
  • LV Tight End #89
    Bowers was again unstoppable both from the slot and from the boundary. The injury-ravaged New England secondary had no chance of stopping Bowers, whose ten targets led the Raiders. Bowers had three receptions of over 20 yards. His day could’ve been bigger if the Raiders had not rested their starters in the fourth quarter of the lopsided loss to the Patriots. With outrageous usage in Klint Kubiak’s offense, Bowers has as much upside as any player in fantasy for now. He gets the Bills in Week 6.
