  49ers | Samuel held to 2 catches for 21 yards in win over Seahawks    Sun Oct 11, 07:46 PM

San Francisco 49ers WR Deebo Samuel Sr. ran 2 times for 4 yards, also caught 2 passes for 21 yards on 3 targets and lost 1 fumble in Sunday's 32-29 win over the Seattle Seahawks. He was projected for 10.0 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 1.5.

Footballguys view: Samuel was ruled out of the game in the third quarter with a hamstring injury after he stepped awkwardly when trying to get around the corner. Wide receiver Jacob Cowing was also slowed by an ankle injury, leaving the team with Mke Evans, Brandin Cooks, and Jordan Watkins as the only healthy wide receivers on the field for the rest of the game. The 49ers have a Week 8 bye. Don't be surprised if Samuel is out at least until Week 9.

  Seahawks | Smith-Njigba catches 5 passes for 102 yards, a touchdown in loss to 49ers    Sun Oct 11, 07:46 PM

Seattle Seahawks WR Jaxon Smith-Njigba ran 1 time for 16 yards and also caught 5 passes for 102 yards and a touchdown on 8 targets in Sunday's 32-29 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He was projected for 19.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 20.3.

Footballguys view: Smith-Njigba took himself out of the game in the first quarter after taking a hard fall following a catch. He appeared to roll his ankle on the play and returned to action with the ankle heavily wrapped. It didn't appear to slow him down as he surpassed 100 receiving yards for the fourth time in five games. But Smith-Njigba's status will be worth watching this week. The Seahawks have a short turnaround to a Thursday night game against the Broncos.

  49ers | Evans catches 7 passes for 113 yards, a touchdown in win over Seahawks    Sun Oct 11, 07:46 PM

San Francisco 49ers WR Mike Evans caught 7 passes for 113 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets in Sunday's 32-29 win over the Seattle Seahawks. He was projected for 10.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 20.8.

Footballguys view: With Deebo Samuel (hamstring) sidelined and Jacob Cowing missing time with an ankle injury, it was Brock Purdy and Evans who moved the ball in the fourth quarter to secure the victory over Seattle. As NFL.com suggested, "Evans was Mr. Clutch." The big-bodied receiver repeatedly found himself the target of Purdy passes, with five of those catches coming on tight windows (less than one yard of separation), per Next Gen Stats. No other Niners player had more than 24 yards receiving. Evans is a dangerous threat paired with Purdy. Expect more of the same against the Commanders on Monday night in Week 6.

  Cardinals | Quitoriano catches 2 passes for 15 yards, two touchdowns in loss to Lions    Sun Oct 11, 07:31 PM

Arizona Cardinals TE Teagan Quitoriano caught 2 passes for 15 yards and two touchdowns on 2 targets in Sunday's 45-21 loss to the Detroit Lions. He finished with 14.5 fantasy points (half-PPR) without a projection.

  Cardinals | Love held to 22 yards on 12 carries in loss to Lions    Sun Oct 11, 07:31 PM

Arizona Cardinals RB Jeremiyah Love ran 12 times for 22 yards in Sunday's 45-21 loss to the Detroit Lions. He was projected for 11.7 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 2.2.

Footballguys view: Sunday's game was the third time in the past four weeks that Love has been held to single-digit scores. As ESPN.com notes, his underlying metrics were poor (5-for-12 stuffed at or behind the line, minus-21 rushing yards over expectation). With the Rams up next and a strong backup in Tyler Allgeier challenging for carries, Love has much to prove before he becomes a lineup lock for fantasy managers.

  Lions | Gibbs runs for 151 yards, two TDs, 56 receiving in win over Cardinals    Sun Oct 11, 07:31 PM

Detroit Lions RB Jahmyr Gibbs ran 25 times for 151 yards and two touchdowns and also caught 5 passes for 56 yards on 6 targets in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals. He was projected for 23.3 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 35.2.

Footballguys view: With a 3-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter, Gibbs has scored the most touchdowns before the age of 25 in NFL history. He now has 58, surpassing Hall of Famer Barry Sanders, who scored 57 before turning 25. Also, of Gibbs' 6.0 yards per carry in Arizona, 3.7 yards per carry came after contact, his season high. Gibbs forced 10 missed tackles on rushes -- tied for his season high -- generating 48 yards on missed tackles, also a season high. The Lions will be off Week 6, so Gibbs' managers need to be ready to roll without him.

  Lions | Goff throws for 271 yards, three touchdowns in win over Cardinals    Sun Oct 11, 07:31 PM

Detroit Lions QB Jared Goff completed 19 of 30 passes for 271 yards with 3 touchdowns and ran 1 time for 1 yard and a touchdown in Sunday's 45-21 win over the Arizona Cardinals. He was projected for 20.6 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 28.9.

Footballguys view: With his three-passing-touchdown, zero-interception performance in Week 5, Goff now has 12 passing touchdowns and no giveaways through the first five games of the 2026 season. He is the first player in NFL history to have 12-plus passing touchdowns and no giveaways through their team's first five games of the season. He was also the QB1 overall with an average of 23 points per game through Sunday's late afternoon window. The Lions are off in Week 6. They return to play the Packers in Week 7.

  Cardinals | Brissett throws for 292 yards, three touchdowns in loss to Lions    Sun Oct 11, 07:31 PM

Arizona Cardinals QB Jacoby Brissett completed 29 of 47 passes for 292 yards with 3 touchdowns and 1 interception and also caught 1 pass for 7 yards on 1 target in Sunday's 45-21 loss to the Detroit Lions. He was projected for 18.8 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 25.8.

Footballguys view: With an inconsistent and, at times, non-existent running game, NFL.com argues the Cardinals offense has essentially been reduced to a chuck-and-pray attack as Brissett attempted more than 45 passes for a second time in three weeks. That's not horrible for fantasy investors, but it's fair to wonder about Brissett's job security as the losses mount. A possible positive? The trade of Marvin Harrison Jr. to the Texans will narrow the funnel for Trey McBride, Michael Wilson, and Kendrick Bourne.

  WR Tre' Harris held to 2 catches for 16 yards in loss to Broncos    Sun Oct 11, 07:21 PM

Los Angeles Chargers WR Tre Harris caught 2 passes for 16 yards on 4 targets in Sunday's 23-17 loss to the Denver Broncos. He was projected for 9.9 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 2.6.

Footballguys view: Harris suffered a hamstring injury during the third quarter and did not return to the game. The team was already struggling at the position. Quentin Johnston was out with a chest injury, and Ladd McConkey was active, but only because the team has too many injured players for their inactive spots. With a Week 6 game against the Chiefs coming, veteran Marquez Valdes-Scantling, return specialist Derius Davis, and tight ends Oronde Gadsden, Charlie Kolar, and Hayden Rucci, who scored on a 7-yard catch in the third quarter, will have to help fill the void.

  49ers | Deebo Samuel ruled out for remainder of game vs. Seahawks    Sun Oct 11, 06:50 PM

49ers WR Deebo Samuel Sr. has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Seahawks with a hamstring injury. Samuel had been getting his right hamstring worked on along the sideline earlier in the game.

Footballguys view: Samuel had been a big part of the 49ers offense after injuries forced the team to re-sign him during camp and then pushed him into a central role during the season. The 49ers play Washington on Monday night next week, but we don't expect Samuel to be available. The 49ers have a Week 8 bye, so we may not see Samuel until Week 9 - if he can avoid injured reserve.

  Chargers | Tre' Harris questionable to return with hamstring injury    Sun Oct 11, 06:06 PM

Chargers WR Tre' Harris is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Broncos due to a hamstring injury.

Footballguys view: Harris didn't return and finished the game with two catches for 16 yards on four targets. Quentin Johnston was out with a chest injury and Ladd McConkey was active, but only because the team has too many injured players for their inactive spots. The Chargers passing game is in shambles heading into a rough road game at Arrowhead Stadium. Harris can be dropped if you picked him up because of the opportunity he was going to have as the team's leading receiver this week.

  Browns | Quinshon Judkins leaves stadium in right walking boot after loss to Jets    Sun Oct 11, 06:05 PM

Browns RB Quinshon Judkins left Sunday's loss to the Jets in a right walking boot. No details on the nature of the injury were provided.

Footballguys view: Backup running back Raheim Sanders suffered a hip injury in this game. Jaleel McLaughlin is the only other running back on the active roster, but the team does have Jaret Patterson on the practice squad. Dylan Sampson is eligible to come off injured reserve after being placed there following Week 1 due to a knee injury, but he was expected to miss significant time and won't be back for Week 6. Look for the Browns to make a move at running back if they are worried about Judkins' availability in the near future.

  Raiders | Mendoza goes 6-of-8 in debut, Kubiak says Cousins remains starter    Sun Oct 11, 05:30 PM

Raiders rookie QB Fernando Mendoza made his NFL debut on Sunday, leading the final drive of a 45-17 loss to the Patriots and completing 6 of 8 passes for 48 yards. The No. 1 overall pick completed his first five passes to move the Raiders into the red zone before the drive ended on a turnover on downs when he scrambled short of the line to gain on fourth-and-5. Head coach Klint Kubiak said after the game that he "wanted to get him some exposure," adding, "He did a good job. All reps are valuable. Very important for him." QB Kirk Cousins remains the starter, Kubiak confirmed.

Packers WR Skyy Moore went down with an injury in Sunday's win over the Bears and was seen wearing a walking boot after the game.

Footballguys view: WR Bo Melton took over the slot role, making him the third receiver to play that role for the Packers after Moore went down. WR Jayden Reed (still on IR) and Savion Williams were previously ruled out. WR J. Michael Sturdivant saw the vast majority of his snaps on Sunday as an outside receiver.

  Daniels throws for 199 yards in ltie with Giants    Sun Oct 11, 04:51 PM

Washington Commanders QB Jayden Daniels completed 17 of 25 passes for 199 yards and ran 9 times for 103 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 27-27 tie with the New York Giants. He was projected for 18.2 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 30.3.

Footballguys view: Daniels broke free for two long touchdown runs to reward any fantasy teams that decided to play him even though the game was forecast to be wet and his #1 receiver Terry McLaurin was a game-time decision. This was a worry because Daniels was wearing a brace on his injured left elbow and concern that he could re-injure the problem joint. He'll face a resurgent 49ers defense on Monday in Week 6 as a boom/bust QB1.

  Likely catches 11 passes for 94 yards, two touchdowns in tie with Commanders    Sun Oct 11, 04:51 PM

New York Giants TE Isaiah Likely caught 11 passes for 94 yards and two touchdowns on 13 targets in Sunday's 27-27 tie with the Washington Commanders. He was projected for 9.8 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 26.9.

Footballguys view: Likely was the clear focus of the game plan as a short range target in a callback to Week 1 when he posted an 8-78-2 line against the Cowboys. This could be a week to remember for other reasons if you have Likely, however, because he limped off late in the game. We'll be watching the practice reports to see what Likely's status will be for a Week 6 home game against the Saints.

  Winston throws for 326 yards, three touchdowns in tie with Commanders    Sun Oct 11, 04:51 PM

New York Giants QB Jameis Winston completed 33 of 54 passes for 326 yards with 3 touchdowns, ran 5 times for 27 yards and lost 1 fumble in Sunday's 27-27 tie with the Washington Commanders. He was projected for 13.0 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 25.7.

Footballguys view: Winston made multiple questionable decisions to help put the Giants in a 14-point fourth quarter hole, and then in typical fashion, he got the team all the way back with two scores to send the game to overtime. He probably would have gotten the win if Cam Skattebo hadn't fumbled in field goal range, but Jayden Daniels 'gaffe failing to stop the clock in field goal range with no timeouts left kept him from getting the loss. Winston is the quarterback of a first-place team heading into a Week 6 game against the Saints. He's worth a streaming QB1 look if you need someone from the wire to cover Joe Burrow or Jared Goff's bye next week.

  Nabers catches 11 passes for 121 yards, a touchdown in tie with Commanders    Sun Oct 11, 04:51 PM

New York Giants WR Malik Nabers caught 11 passes for 121 yards and a touchdown on 20 targets in Sunday's 27-27 tie with the Washington Commanders. He was projected for 12.1 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 23.6.

Footballguys view: Nabers hadn't put up much in the box score until Jameis Winston authored a pair of long touchdown drives to erase a 14-point deficit in the fourth quarter. He was a big part of that effort and could have an even bigger target share next week against the Saints if Isaiah Likely is hurt after he limped off of the field late in this game. As long as Winston isn't benched for J.J. McCarthy, Nabers is back on track to have a big season with Winston's freewheeling style at the center of the offense.

  Saints | Shough unsure if left hand is broken, says it's 'banged up'    Sun Oct 11, 04:42 PM

Saints QB Tyler Shough was asked after Sunday's 23-13 loss to the Vikings whether his left hand was broken and said he wasn't sure he could answer that, but that it's banged up.

Footballguys view: Shough was upgraded to full practice on Thursday after dealing with the left-hand injury earlier in the week. He was blitzed on 91% of his dropbacks in the first half and threw two picks. He completed 16 of 25 passes for 96 yards -- for a 38.1 passer rating -- in a game that would have been a blowout if not for the Saints' own defensive turnovers. Shough and the Saints will try to regroup against the Giants in Week 6.

  Texans | Texans trade for Marvin Harrison Jr., deal centers on 2027 second-round pick    Sun Oct 11, 04:32 PM

The Texans have acquired WR Marvin Harrison Jr. from the Cardinals, with Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans addressing the trade on Sunday. Per sources, the deal involves a 2027 second-round pick and a 2027 sixth-round pick, with the Cardinals getting a 2027 seventh-round pick. Harrison is a third-year player and a former No. 4 overall pick.

Footballguys view: The Texans are clearly retrenching their offense around C.J. Stroud. They have made two trades to replace up-and-coming 2025 second-round pick Jayden Higgins, who went down with an ACL injury before the season. Harrison should be used as a "sacrificial X receiver" to hopefully allow Nico Collins to move around the formation and move the Texans pass offense into the 21st century. Kendrick Bourne will replace Harrison in the Cardinals lineup, but he is only worth a look in deep PPR leagues. Harrison still isn't worth carrying in typical redraft leagues, but he does bolster Stroud's value. The Cardinals have to be happy with the return they got on yet another failed high first-round pick, but there has to be a change to break that pattern if this team is going to get out of the NFC West cellar.

  Jets | Wilson catches 7 passes for 104 yards, a touchdown in win over Browns    Sun Oct 11, 04:16 PM

New York Jets WR Garrett Wilson caught 7 passes for 104 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets in Sunday's 17-12 win over the Cleveland Browns. He was projected for 14.0 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 19.9.

Footballguys view: Wilson had three catches for 70 yards and a score on the first drive of the game, but was quiet from there on out. Adonai Mitchell should be back soon from his finger injury to take some of Wilson's target share away, but that could also draw coverage in the deep passing game. Wilson is a solid WR2 play next week against a banged-up Patriots secondary whether or not Mitchell is back in the lineup.

  Jets | Allen runs for 116 yards, one TD in win over Browns    Sun Oct 11, 04:16 PM

Footballguys view: The Jets stuck with Allen as a clear lead back and he rewarded them with the game-winning touchdown. Breece Hall should be back in the next few weeks, but Allen's performance will allow them to not rush Hall back from his quad injury. We'll watch Hall's practice status heading into a matchup at New England, but expect Allen to start and be a suitable RB2/Flex for fantasy teams in Week 6.

  Browns | Fannin held to 1 catch for 4 yards in loss to Jets    Sun Oct 11, 04:16 PM

Cleveland Browns TE Harold Fannin Jr. caught 1 pass for 4 yards on 4 targets in Sunday's 17-12 loss to the New York Jets. He was projected for 8.7 fantasy points (half-PPR) and finished with 0.9.

Footballguys view: Fannin was emerging as Deshaun Watson's favorite red zone target with three touchdowns in Weeks 3-4, but he was a dud on a rainy day in New Jersey. He's still worth carrying in fantasy leagues, but the nature of playing with Watson in this low wattage offense will keep his floor low and ceiling touchdown-dependent heading into a matchup with the Ravens.
