- Justin Fields is a must-start: After breaking the all-time record for rushing yards by a quarterback in a game, Fields has an excellent matchup to continue his streak of being a top-five fantasy quarterback.
- Travis Etienne continues to move up weekly rankings: Etienne’s third straight 100-yard game with a touchdown makes it easier and easier to trust him regardless of the matchup.
- Nathan Jahnke’s fantasy rankings have been the most accurate in season rankings over the last four seasons combined, per FantasyPros‘ rankings accuracy competition.
