  • LAC Quarterback #10
    Herbert played through a high-ankle sprain in Week 4 with disastrous results. He struggled to move around the pocket and threw for 179 yards plus one touchdown en route to a 10-point performance from the entire offense. LA lost to the Chiefs by seven points. The Chargers’ Week 5 bye should help Herbert get back on his feet for their upcoming matchup with Denver. LA’s run-heavy approach will keep him in the QB2 ranks.
  • IND Wide Receiver #11
    Pittman was added to the injury report as a DNP on Wednesday. He dealt with a back injury earlier in the season but it never cost him any games. It’s a shocking development and one of a slew of injuries hitting the Colts’ offense. Josh Downs, who would be in line to take over No. 1 receiver duties in Pittman’s absence, missed Wednesday’s practice with a toe injury. He will leap into the WR2 ranks if healthy. Adonai Mitchell will re-enter the three-receiver rotation going forward while Alec Pierce’s contributions as a deep threat will be even more valuable in the coming weeks.
  • NO Quarterback #18
    Derek Carr is expected to miss multiple weeks with a tear in his oblique. Jake Haener was also in the running to take over at quarterback, but the Saints can use Carr’s absence to see what they have in the rookie. Rattler was one of the biggest fallers of the 2024 NFL Draft, tumbling into the fifth round after many analysts believed he could go on the second day. He should be added in all Superflex leagues, though redraft managers don’t need to consider him in his first career start.
  • WAS Running Back #8
    Robinson suffered the knee injury in the first half of Washington’s Week 5 win over the Browns. He scored twice in the first two quarters but did not play in the second half. Head coach Dan Quinn told reporters that his absence from the lineup in the second half was a “coaching decision.” The Commanders had a sizable lead at halftime, giving them some room to rest a banged-up player. Robinson still has two days to get back on the practice field this week. If he can’t suit up, Austin Ekeler and Jeremy McNichols will split the Washington backfield.
  • TEN Quarterback #8
    Levis went down early in the Titans’ Week 4 win over the Dolphins with an injured right shoulder and did not return. He got Week 5 off with Tennessee on bye and appears to be good to go for his upcoming game versus the Colts. Levis has topped 200 yards once in four appearances this year and may still be limited by the shoulder injury even if active. He is not on the fantasy radar outside of Superflex leagues heading into Week 6.
  • CIN Running Back #31
    Moss suffered the ankle injury in Week 5. Ravens defender Odafe Oweh dove to tackle Moss and landed hard on the running back’s ankle. Moss may be dealing with a dreaded high-ankle sprain. If he misses any time, Chase Brown would take over the starting job, propelling the explosive runner to an RB2 ranking for Week 6 versus the Giants.
  • SF Tight End #85
    Kittle played through the rib injury last week and caught eight passes for 64 yards in a score. He was listed as questionable for that game and was removed from the injury report entirely this time around, suggesting he is in a better place than he was last week. Kittle remains a top-five fantasy option in the nightmare that is tight end this year.
  • IND Running Back #27
    Sermon is a surprise addition to the injury report as he played through Week 5 seemingly without any issues. He ran 10 times for 38 yards and a touchdown while adding six receptions for 25 yards through the air. Jonathan Taylor looks unlikely to play this week, putting Sermon in line for another strong workload if he can suit up. Tyler Goodson would be the next man up if both Indy backs are ruled out.
  • IND Wide Receiver #11
    Pittman dealt with a back issue heading into Week 3. He was listed as questionable with back and calf injuries after being a surprise addition to the injury report on Friday. He played through the pair of injuries on Sunday. It’s possible that back injury flared up once again, forcing him to miss Wednesday’s practice. This will be a situation to monitor closely as Josh Downs also missed practice. Adonai Mitchell and Alec Pierce would be the next men up if both receivers are sidelined for Week 6.
  • NYG Wide Receiver #1
    Nabers suffered the concussion in Week 4’s Thursday Night Football game against the Cowboys and was unable to play against the Seahawks in Week 5. Nabers’ inability to practice to begin the week is worrying, given his extra time off. Giants slot receiver Wan’Dale Robinson would be a near-lock to lead the team in targets if Nabers is unable to suit up in Week 6.
