  • Marvin Mims WR | DEN

    Broncos' Marvin Mims: Records 61 all-purpose yards in win

    Mims brought in two of five targets for 10 yards, rushed once for nine yards and returned four punts for 42 yards in the Broncos' 21-17 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

    Mims' final line tells the story of modest involvement on offense for the fourth time in five games, as well as a continuation of his solid work as a returner. The speedy third-year wideout didn't log any kickoff-return work for the second straight game, but he's now averaging 13.0 yards on his 13 punt returns. Nevertheless, with a modest 14-119-1 line on 21 targets as a receiver, Mims retains only modest value in formats that don't factor in return yards.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Makes only FGA in Week 5

    Elliott made his only field-goal attempt and both of his PATs in Sunday's 21-17 loss to the Broncos.

    Elliott made a chip-shot 31-yard field goal late in the first quarter, which would prove to be his only field-goal try of the day. The kicker remains perfect through five games this season, making all five of his field-goal attempts, while going 14-for-14 on extra-point tries.

  • Xavier Legette WR | CAR

    Panthers' Xavier Legette: Makes TD grab in return from injury

    Legette secured two of three targets for 31 yards and a touchdown in the Panthers' 27-24 win over the Dolphins on Sunday.

    Making his return from a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury, Legette made an impact with a seven-yard scoring grab late in the second quarter that ignited a comeback from a 17-0 deficit. Despite the score, the 2024 first-round pick continues to struggle to generate anything resembling useful fantasy production, as he now has a 6-39-1 line on 18 targets through his three games. Bryce Young's struggles with consistency and accuracy are partly to blame, but Legette isn't the most inspiring fantasy prospect despite a favorable Week 6 home matchup against the Cowboys next Sunday afternoon.

  • Chad Ryland K | ARI

    Cardinals' Chad Ryland: Perfect on PATs

    Ryland went 3-for-3 on extra-point attempts in Sunday's 22-21 loss to the Titans.

    The kicker did not get a chance to attempt a field goal. Ryland is now 11-of-11 on extra-point tries in 2025, though he has missed two field goals. The former Patriot has been reliable enough so far, but his team has only scored more than 21 points in a game one time.

  • Chargers' Quentin Johnston: Costly fumble in loss

    Johnston finished with four receptions on as many targets for 40 yards and a lost fumble while adding one rush attempt for nine yards in Sunday's 27-10 loss to Washington.

    Johnston coughed up a momentum-killing fumble to end a lengthy drive in the second quarter that derailed both his and his team's days. The Commanders took over in their territory and promptly drove the ball down the field for a touchdown on the ensuing possession, and the Chargers never recovered. Johnston still finished second in receiving yards for his club on a low-volume passing day. Managers may opt to chalk this up as a dud and continue rolling out the breakout fantasy star in a soft matchup against the Dolphins next Sunday.

  • Jason Myers K | SEA

    Seahawks' Jason Myers: Misses only FGA in loss

    Myers missed his only field-goal attempt and went 5-for-5 on PATs in Sunday's 38-35 loss to the Buccaneers.

    Myers missed a 44-yard field-goal try wide left in the first quarter, which proved to be his only opportunity to kick a field goal in Week 5. The kicker has now missed a field goal in three different contests this year, going 9-for-12 on field-goal attempts, including 3-for-4 from 50-plus yards, while making all 17 of his extra-point tries over five games this season.

  • Evan Engram TE | DEN

    Broncos' Evan Engram: Finds end zone in Week 5 win

    Engram secured four of six targets for 33 yards and a touchdown in the Broncos' 21-17 win over the Eagles on Sunday.

    Engram finished second in receptions and targets on an afternoon when Bo Nix spread the ball around to nine different pass catchers overall. The veteran tight end also scored his first touchdown in a Broncos uniform on an 11-yard catch just before the halfway point of the fourth quarter, and his receiving yardage total was a new season high. Engram has played a more short-area role than may have initially been expected upon his signing with Denver this offseason, but his upside keeps him a viable consideration at what can be a difficult position for reliable fantasy production.

  • Chargers' Cameron Dicker: Makes both kicks in defeat

    Dicker hit his only field-goal attempt and his only PAT in Sunday's 27-10 loss to the Commanders.

    The kicker nailed a 55-yarder in the first quarter to put LA up 10-0, though it was downhill from there for the team. Dicker has yet to miss in 2025, as he's now 9-for-9 on field-goal attempts and 9-for-9 on extra-point tries. His opportunities, though, have been somewhat limited on a team that has yet to score 30 points in a game this season.

  • Mark Andrews TE | BAL

    Ravens' Mark Andrews: Limited by quarterback play

    Andrews recorded two receptions on three targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 44-10 loss to the Texans.

    The Ravens were able to muster very little offense with Cooper Rush at the helm, and Andrews' line suffered. There were still a few positives to take away from his role, as he tied for second on the team in targets and was more involved than Isaiah Likely. Lamar Jackson's (hamstring) potential return in Week 6 would significantly improve Andrews' outlook.

  • Troy Franklin WR | DEN

    Broncos' Troy Franklin: Modest numbers in Week 5 win

    Franklin secured three of five targets for 35 yards in the Broncos' 21-17 win over the Eagles on Sunday. He also recorded a two-point conversion catch.

    Franklin was a distant second in receiving yards to Courtland Sutton on the afternoon, and he tied for third in targets while recording a two-point conversion following Evan Engram's fourth-quarter touchdown grab. Franklin, Bo Nix's former Oregon teammate, has no fewer than four and as many as nine targets over Denver's first five games, but he's posted 44 receiving yards or fewer in three of those contests. Franklin will likely remain a relatively middling fantasy option in a Week 6 matchup against the Jets in London.
