Rob Gronkowski finally lived up to his billing in Week 5. (USATSI)
Rob Gronkowski finally lived up to his billing in Week 5. (USATSI)

Vikings

RB: Matt Asiata - 56 percent; Jerick McKinnon - 38 percent

WR: Greg Jennings - 94 percent; Jarius Wright - 78 percent; Cordarrelle Patterson - 52 percent; Adam Thielen - 35 percent

TE: Rhett Ellison - 52 percent; Chase Ford - 44 percent

Patterson dealt with a hip injury during Thursday's game, and missed much of the second half. Still, Jairus Wright's role in the offense continues to grow, and that could be to Patterson's detriment.

Packers

RB: Eddie Lacy - 50 percent; James Starks - 50 percent

WR: Davante Adams - 81 percent; Randall Cobb - 78 percent; Jordy Nelson - 70 percent

TE: Andrew Quarless - 57 percent; Richard Rodgers - 35 percent

This one was over so early, there's almost nothing to possibly take away from it.

Panthers

RB: Darrin Reaves - 70 percent; Chris Ogbonnaya - 32 percent

WR: Kelvin Benjamin - 85 percent; Jerricho Cotchery - 80 percent; Jason Avant - 41 percent

TE: Greg Olsen - 94 percent; Ed Dickson - 59 percent

All I'll say is this: As awesome as Kelvin Benjamin is, Greg Olsen is the only Panthers player I have on any roster right now. Everyone else is too boom-or-bust for me.

Bears

RB: Matt Forte - 91 percent; Ka'Deem Carey - 19 percent

WR: Brandon Marshall - 97 percent; Alshon Jeffery - 97 percent; Santonio Holmes - 34 percent

TE: Martellus Bennett - 91 percent; Dante Rosario - 36 percent

Even though Marshall didn't do much, it is nice to see him playing such a huge role. To me, that says he'll be just fine long term.

Texans

RB: Arian Foster - 81 percent; Alfred Blue  - 19 percent

WR: DeAndre Hopkins - 100 percent; Andre Johnson - 86 percent; Keshawn Martin - 32 percent; Damaris Johnson - 31 percent

TE: C.J. Fiedorowicz - 64 percent; Garrett Graham - 61 percent

Hopkins has now played a higher number of snaps than Johnson over the last three games.

Cowboys

RB: DeMarco Murray - 88 percent; Joseph Randle - 4 percent; Lance Dunbar - 3 percent

WR: Dez Bryant - 91 percent; Terrance Williams - 87 percent; Cole Beasley - 45 percent

TE: Jason Witten - 100 percent

When Jerry Jones says the team "should have at least [Joseph Randle] get a few more snaps," coach Jason Garrett listens! He's the owner, right? Hello? Anyone?

Bills

RB: Fred Jackson - 65 percent; C.J. Spiller - 35 percent

WR: Sammy Watkins - 99 percent; Robert Woods - 94 percent; Mike Williams - 37 percent

TE: Scott Chandler - 61 percent; Lee Smith - 37 percent

Those of us who were expected a C.J. Spiller bounce back campaign aren't looking great right now.

Lions

RB: George Winn - 58 percent; Reggie Bush - 37 percent

WR: Golden Tate - 82 percent; Jeremy Ross - 73 percent; Corey Fuller - 61 percent; Calvin Johnson - 45 percent

TE: Eric Ebron - 60 percent; Brandon Pettigrew - 60 percent

Injuries are ravaging this team right now, making it awfully hard to pin them down.

Ravens

TE: Owen Daniels - 97 percent

WR: Torrey Smith -  85 percent; Steve Smith - 83 percent; Marlon Brown - 50 percent

RB: Justin Forsett - 72 percent; Lorenzo Taliaferro - 15 percent; Bernard Pierce - 10 percent

Nobody got excited about the prospect of adding Forsett, but he has pretty much cemented himself as the team's top back at this point.

Colts

RB: Ahmad Bradshaw - 51 percent; Trent Richardson - 49 percent

WR: T.Y. Hilton - 87 percent; Reggie Wayne - 85 percent; Hakeem Nicks - 60 percent

TE: Dwayne Allen - 72 percent; Coby Fleener - 51 percent

Limiting Bradshaw's snaps makes sense because you want to keep him healthy. Limiting Richardson's snaps makes sense because you want to keep him off the field.

Steelers

RB: Le'Veon Bell - 66 percent; LeGarrette Blount - 26 percent

WR: Antonio Brown - 88 percent; Markus Wheaton - 82 percent; Justin Brown - 54 percent; Lance Moore - 18 percent

TE: Heath Miller - 94 percent; Matt Spaeth - 26 percent; Michael Palmer - 6 percent

 Nothing out of the ordinary going on here. This is a team that has it figured out.

Jaguars

RB: Jordan Todman - 41 percent; Denard Robinson - 34 percent; Toby Gerhart - 18 percent; Storm Johnson - 12 percent

WR: Allen Hurns - 98 percent; Allen Robinson - 91 percent; Mike Brown - 43 percent; Ace Sanders - 16 percent

TE: Clay Harbor - 89 percent

Feel free to speculate on Denard Robinson, Jordan Todman or Storm Johnson, because Gerhart clearly is not the answer in Jacksonville. The question is whether any of the other options are either.

Buccaneers

WR: Vincent Jackson - 94 percent; Louis Murphy - 89 percent; Robert Herron - 43 percent

RB: Doug Martin - 65 percent; Bobby Rainey - 35 percent

TE: Austin Seferian-Jenkins - 95 percent; Brandon Myers - 35 percent

Seferian-Jenkins was targeted on just three of his 60 snaps. He has a consistent role, but the production just isn't there yet.

Saints

RB: Khiry Robinson - 48 percent; Pierre Thomas - 32 percent; Travaris Cadet - 18 percent

WR: Brandin Cooks - 75 percent; Marques Colston - 68; Kenny Stills - 48 percent; Robert Meachem - 41 percent

TE: Jimmy Graham - 20 percent; Josh Hill - 35 percent

Falcons

RB: Steven Jackson - 36 percent; Jacquizz Rodgers - 26 percent; Davonte Freeman - 16 percent; Antone Smith - 15 percent

WR: Julio Jones - 97 percent; Roddy White - 96 percent; Devin Hester - 60 percent

TE: Levine Toilolo - 99 percent

Giants

RB: Andre Williams - 53 percent; Rashad Jennings - 32 percent

WR: Victor Cruz - 94 percent; Rueben Randle - 93 percent; Odell Beckham - 51 percent; Preston Parker - 25 percent

TE: Larry Donnell - 76 percent

Beckham was targeted on 14.3 percent of his snaps. It will be interesting to see if Eli Manning keeps looking his way.

Rams

WR: Brian Quick - 74 percent; Kenny Britt - 58 percent; Austin Pettis - 41 percent; Tavon Austin - 28 percent

RB: Benny Cunningham - 51 percent; Zac Stacy - 37 percent

TE: Jared Cook - 76 percent; Lance Kendricks - 47 percent

Cunningham could be in line for a huge role if Stacy's injury proves serious.

Eagles

WR: Jeremy Maclin - 93 percent; Riley Cooper - 93 percent; Jordan Matthews - 45 percent

RB: LeSean McCoy - 74 percent; Darren Sproles - 27 percent

TE: Brent Celek - 79 percent; Zach Ertz - 40 percent; James Casey - 34 percent

Zach Ertz's lack of playing time is certainly hindering him. He has not been effective recently.

Browns

RB: Ben Tate - 66 percent; Isaiah Crowell - 19 percent; Terrance West - 14 percent

WR: Andrew Hawkins - 74 percent; Miles Austin - 64 percent; Taylor Gabriel - 53 percent; Travis Benjamin - 34 percent

TE: Jordan Cameron - 94 percent; Jim Dray - 38 percent

Worried (hoping?) the Browns would ease Tate back into action? That doesn't seem to be in the cards. He's the No. 1 back here.

Titans

RB: Bishop Sankey - 32 percent; Shonn Greene - 26 percent; Dexter McCluster - 24 percent; Leon Washington - 21 percent

WR: Justin Hunter - 97 percent; Kendall Wright - 81 percent; Nate Washington - 71 percent

TE: Delanie Walker - 85 percent

The Sankey coronation did not go quite as planned. This backfield is still a mess, with nobody really standing out.

Cardinals

RB: Andre Ellington - 86 percent; Robert Hughes - 14 percent; Stepfan Taylor - 7 percent

WR: Michael Floyd - 95 percent; Larry Fitzgerald - 91 percent; John Brown - 66 percent

TE: John Carlson - 97 percent; Rob Housler - 19 percent

Only a handful of running backs are playing as much as Andre Ellington right now. I guess the foot is fine.

Broncos

RB: Ronnie Hillman - 48 percent; Montee Ball - 37 percent

WR: Demaryius Thomas - 98 percent; Emmanuel Sanders - 95 percent; Wes Welker - 84 percent

TE: Julius Thomas - 95 percent; Jacob Tamme - 7 percent

Though it was Hillman who got the work once Ball went down, there is no guarantee he will be the top option if Ball is out an extended amount of time.

Jets

QB: Michael Vick - 60 percent; Geno Smith - 40 percent

RB: Chris Ivory - 39 percent; Chris Johnson - 32 percent; Bilal Powell - 28 percent

WR: Jeremy Kerley - 91 percent; Greg Salas - 75 percent; David Nelson - 47 percent

TE: Jeff Cumberland - 91 percent; Jace Amaro - 47 percent

With the Jets playing quarterback hot potato and Eric Decker out, there might not be anything meaningful here.

Chargers

RB: Branden Oliver - 55 percent; Donald Brown - 30 percent

WR: Keenan Allen - 85 percent; Eddie Royal - 51 percent; Malcom Floyd - 45 percent

TE: Antonio Gates- 54 percent; Ladarius Green - 50 percent

Oliver filled in more-than-capably, and has likely earned a larger role even if Brown is healthy next week.

Chiefs

RB: Jamaal Charles - 78 percent; Knile Davis - 14 percent; De'Anthony Thomas - 12 percent

WR: Dwayne Bowe - 86 percent; A.J. Jenkins - 66 percent; Junior Hemingway - 26 percent

TE: Anthony Fasano - 94 percent; Travis Kelce - 58 percent

So much for that timeshare in the backfield.

49ers

RB: Frank Gore - 56 percent; Carlos Hyde - 43 percent

WR: Anquan Boldin - 86 percent; Michael Crabtree - 60 percent; Brandon Lloyd - 34 percent; Steve Johnson - 7 percent

TE: Vance McDonald - 100 percent; <player idref=ier - 41 percent

Crabtree's foot injury could be the reason his role was so limited.

Bengals

RB: Giovani Bernard - 81 percent; Jeremy Hill - 21 percent

WR: Mohamed Sanu - 100 percent; A.J. Green - 90 percent; James Wright - 38 percent; Brandon Tate - 31 percent; Dane Sanzenbacher - 23 percent

TE: Jermaine Gresham  - 96 percent

Patriots

RB: Stevan Ridley - 58 percent; Shane Vereen - 40 percent

WR: Brandon LaFell - 88 percent; Julian Edelman - 89 percent; Danny Amendola - 22 percent

TE: Rob Gronkowski - 79 percent; Michael Hoomanawanui - 53 percent

Finally, a vintage Gronk game. He looked good, and played a pretty typical role during a game when the Patriots had the ball constantly. Expect big things moving forward.
