The fifth week of the fantasy season brought us more unpredictable totals from unlikely players (hello, Taysom Hill), but it also saw some of the top running backs make a statement in the stat sheets. We also experienced another sideways week at the tight end position, as no-names continued to produce while the players we drafted as starters floundered. I’m looking at you T.J. Hockenson and George Kittle.
Fantasy fans also saw the continued success of one of the most surprising players in the league at quarterback, while another signal-caller who was a fantasy star last season might be on the verge of becoming waiver-wire fodder. Those are among what I believe are the top 10 fantasy football story lines from this week that will no doubt affect your starting lineup decisions moving forward.
