Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Justin Boone's lineup advice for Week 5
Key Points:
- Matthew Stafford (Rams) is a recommended QB start this week against the Bills in a high-scoring Monday Night Football game projected at 54.5 points, with Buffalo allowing significant fantasy points to QBs.
- Jaylen Warren (Steelers) is a strong RB start against the Colts, benefiting from increased workload due to Rico Dowdle's injury, with the Colts being a favorable matchup for running backs.
- Jameson Williams (Lions) is advised as a WR start versus the Cardinals, who have been vulnerable to wide receivers this season, making him a promising fantasy option despite some volatility.
- Mike Gesicki (Bengals) is a top TE start against the Dolphins, expected to see increased targets due to receiver injuries, with Miami being one of the best matchups for tight ends.
- Jalen Hurts (Eagles) is a notable sit this week due to multiple key injuries on the Eagles offense and a tough matchup against the Jaguars defense, making him a risky fantasy play.
