Adams cashed in on a corner fade from four yards out in the second quarter and ran a beautiful route on a double move slant from five yards out for his second score in the fourth quarter, proving that he remains an elite red zone weapon for an offense that has now attempted 51 or more passes in three straight games. Adams is back to modest target rates following the Week 4 return of Puka Nacua but remains a weekly WR2 due to his red zone acumen, which remains true ahead of a much more forgiving matchup against the Cardinals in Week 6.

Nacua operated as the primary option through the air for a Rams team that attempted more than 50 passes for the third straight game. The veteran alpha was mostly confined to short-area work, something that could be attributed to the groin injury that continues to have his name on the injury report in practice, but that would not keep Nacua from returning another elite WR1 performance. Nacua was also inches away from padding his stat line further after failing to come down with what would have been a 51-yard touchdown reception on the final play of the first half. Nacua and the Rams fall to 2-3 ahead of a Week 6 divisional showdown against the Cardinals, where he will remain one of the top fantasy assets in the league.

Williams has yet to see more than the 16 carries he saw against the Bills this season but the team’s recent pass-heavy nature has left the veteran lead back with six or more receptions in three straight games, including 27 total targets in that span. The elite-level aerial volume made it three consecutive games with 20 or more opportunities for Williams, who continues to return RB1 fantasy weeks while playing in one of the league’s top offenses. Williams remains a middling RB1 ahead of a Week 6 divisional showdown against the Cardinals at home.

It was the third consecutive game in which Stafford attempted 51 passes or more in what has become the most voluminous passing offense in the league. The two powerhouses felt each other out throughout the first half as only 20 combined points per scored before the break. Things would get aggressive for the final 30 minutes as seven combined touchdowns were scored on nine second half possessions, four of which were accounted for by the Rams. Stafford directed a whopping 24 targets toward alpha wide receiver Puka Nacua, who set a career high with 17 receptions in a short-area role. The reigning MVP returned an instant classic performance against the 2024 MVP, ultimately coming up short in overtime following a blocked field goal attempt from Harrison Mevis. The Rams fall to 2-3 ahead of a home matchup against the more forgiving Cardinals in Week 6. Stafford is once again a fantasy QB1 in that matchup.

Cook’s elite rushing line was overshadowed by two fumbles, the second of which was a lost fumble on the team’s first possession of overtime, placing the Rams in position to complete the comeback and steal away the victory. A blocked field goal on what would have been the game-winning kick breathed new life into the Bills, who demonstrated confidence in their lead back by throwing him right back out there on the following possession to eventually win the game. The 26 touches go down as a season high for the veteran back, who found paint for the fourth consecutive game in the thrilling overtime win. Cook remains a top-tier RB1 for fantasy purposes ahead of a Week 6 meeting with the Raiders in Las Vegas.

The two teams mustered only 20 combined points in the first half as they felt each other out. There were only two punts after the break between the two sides, who combined for seven touchdowns on nine combined possessions including five straight touchdowns in the fourth quarter to send the game to overtime. Allen and the Bills took the ball first in the extra frame and quickly found themselves deep in enemy territory following a 57-yard, catch-and-run pass to Khalil Shakir. A James Cook fumble on the next play appeared to shatter Allen’s chances of earning his first career win in overtime, but a blocked 48-yard field goal attempt from Harrison Mevis gave the ball back to the Bills with a chance to win. Two Josh Allen scrambles set up a game-winning, 45-yard field goal for Tyler Bass. Allen ended with the second most yards on the ground of his career as the Bills moved to 4-1 with the wild win. Allen remains the top overall quarterback in fantasy circles ahead of a Week 6 meeting with the Raiders on the road.

Moore’s absence leaves only Keon Coleman, Khalil Shakir, Greg Dortch, and Skyler Bell as healthy wide receivers on the active roster with Joshua Palmer also sidelined. Expect heavy snap rates for Coleman and Shakir alongside tight end Dalton Kincaid, with the possibility the team elevates their 12-personnel rates through the inclusion of Dawson Knox. Also inactive for the Bills are WR Joshua Palmer, OL Jude Bowry, OL Ar’maj Reed-Adams, DL Ed Oliver DL, Landon Jackson, and NCB Dee Alford.

With the Seahawks preparing to face the Broncos on a short week, it would be a bit more concerning if JSN were listed as a DNP. The team listing him as limited on the first day of the week is encouraging after he clearly battled through an ankle injury in Week 5’s loss to the 49ers. Smith-Njigba still topped 100 receiving yards for the fourth time this season and made several big plays despite being in visible pain. We’ll continue to update his practice status throughout the week, but as long as he’s active come Thursday, JSN should be in your fantasy lineups.

While this is good news for Jackson, Minter also said he wasn’t sure if Jackson would be back on the practice field on Wednesday. It was reported earlier on Monday that there was “some hope” that Jackson would play in Week 6 after he was “closer than people realized” to playing in Week 5 against the Falcons. This is shaping up to be another week where we are forced to monitor Jackson’s practice status up until Friday, when the team releases its final injury report. The Ravens are 4-1 and set to face a 3-2 Browns team in a pivotal AFC North matchup. If Jackson is unable to start, Tyler Huntley would make his second start of the season.

Monken was spotted in a walking boot after Sunday’s loss to the Jets, but Monken said his RB1 will have a chance to play in Week 6 against the Ravens. Judkins rushed 14 times for 44 yards last week and has a rushing line of 73-221-1 for the season, along with 18 receptions for 102 additional yards. Judkins’ practice status will be one to monitor throughout the week. If he’s not able to play, Raheim Sanders would likely handle the early-down work, with Jaleel McLaughlin mixing in as well.
