Week 5 Fantasy Football Rankings: Flex (RB/WR/TE)

Welcome to Week 5 of the fantasy football season!

Among the running backs, Alvin Kamara has moved into the top 12 after a 13-catch game against the Buccaneers. Zack Moss is in the top 30, but that could change if the Colts bring back Jonathan Taylor. Keep tabs on his status throughout the week. I also have Jaleel McLaughlin in the top 25 with Javonte Williams (hip) injured.

At wideout, Puka Nacua is (and belongs) in the top 10 at least until Cooper Kupp returns to real-game action. Michael Pittman Jr., Terry McLaurin and Brandon Aiyuk have also moved into the top 20, as has Garrett Wilson. Michael Wilson, who had two touchdowns against the Niners last week, breaks into the top 40.

At tight end, rookie Sam LaPorta remains in the top four after another nice stat line. George Kittle, Darren Waller and Dallas Goedert aren’t producing, but they’re all still in the top eight at what is a dreadfully thin position. On a positive note, Jake Ferguson, Zach Ertz and Tyler Higbee are moving up the ranks.

Be sure to check back for updates … and good luck everyone!
