Josh Downs is finally seeing the usage many fantasy managers expected. He led the Colts in targets and catches last week and now faces an Arizona defense that’s vulnerable underneath.

Start: Matt Stafford (QB)
Matt Stafford has been on a tear, topping 375 yards and throwing three touchdowns in back-to-back games. He now faces a depleted Ravens defense that’s surrendered the second-most passing yards and the most touchdowns through the air.

Week 5 Start/Sit – Quarterback – Preview

Week 5 is here, and fantasy managers are starting to get a clear picture of who they can rely on. With injuries piling up and matchups becoming more telling, making the right start/sit calls is crucial for quarterbacks.

Start: Justin Fields
Justin Fields looked electric in his return from a concussion, torching Miami for 226 passing yards, two total touchdowns, and 81 rushing yards on his way to 29 fantasy points. He’s hit that mark in both of his healthy starts this year, and Dallas is next on the schedule. The Cowboys have given up the most fantasy points to quarterbacks, with Russell Wilson, Caleb Williams, and Jordan Love all surpassing 32. Fields should be in line for another top-tier week and is a top-three QB play.

Sit: Trevor Lawrence
Trevor Lawrence has only one strong fantasy outing this season, and Kansas City’s defense has clamped down since Week 1. With his inconsistency and the Chiefs limiting production, Lawrence is not a trustworthy option in Week 5.

Week 5 Start/Sit – Wide Receiver – Preview

Week 5 is here, and fantasy managers are starting to get a clear picture of who they can rely on. With injuries piling up and matchups becoming more telling, making the right start/sit calls is crucial for wide receivers.

Start: Jakobi Meyers
Jakobi Meyers has cooled the past two weeks, but the volume is still there. He remains a trusted target for Geno Smith and gets a favorable matchup with the Colts, who have allowed the third-most points to receivers. Meyers is a solid WR2 bounce-back candidate.

Sit: Stefon Diggs
Stefon Diggs looked sharp with 101 yards last week, but Buffalo’s secondary has suffocated opposing receivers, holding stars like Tyreek Hill and Chris Olave under 50 yards. Diggs could struggle in this matchup despite his volume.
