Higgins is now Cincinnati’s second-most reliable fantasy receiver behind Tyler Boyd. * Running a route on 82% of Burrow dropbacks

The rookie even added a 13-yard run, giving him 29.5 half-PPR points in the past two games. Green produced three yards on his five targets, Higgins caught four of seven targets for 77 yards in Week 4’s victory over the Jaguars. He’ll likely factor into a committee at the minimum. Jackson, meanwhile, has averaged 2.3 yards after contact with an 81.3% catch rate over his career. Kelley will likely receive top billing in the Chargers’ backfield, but the rookie is only averaging 3.3 yards per run following a rough performance (nine rushes for seven yards) at Tampa Bay. He may not give all of those reps back to Michel anytime soon.Įkeler appears IR bound with a significant hamstring injury that could cost him several weeks. Although Michel was out, Harris still had to fend off Rex Burkhead and a returning James White for those opportunities. The second-year rusher, who received just four carries as a rookie, turned 17 handoffs into 100 yards during an unplanned Monday night showcase. Just as the Patriots lost Sony Michel to a quad injury, they welcomed back Harris for his first appearance of 2020.

The top adds may demand more patience to suss out their long-term roles. Managers missing Aaron Jones, on the other hand, hopefully have a decent alternative on the bench. At least there are some solid quarterback streamers for those forced to replace Aaron Rodgers and Matthew Stafford. That’s not the case for many managers, though, as the Packers and Lions will each take an early breather. Of course, gamers also can’t rule out the possibility of additional COVID cases causing more postponements and scheduling chaos throughout the season.īefore hastily dropping a struggling top talent, now’s a good time to remember that you don’t have to make pick-ups every week. For everyone else, it’s a difficult time to require a sudden free-agent spark to make up for a deteriorating roster and incoming bye weeks. That’s not the case if Joshua Kelley (55% rostered) remains available, as Austin Ekeler could miss multiple weeks after suffering a hamstring injury Sunday. The options aren’t particularly tempting heading into Week 5. I got some bad news for anyone seeking a waiver-wire savior to resuscitate a team on life support.
