Welcome to Week 5 of the fantasy football season!
It’s time to start thinking about setting your lineups, and we’re here to help with our initial fantasy player rankings! I’ve used a full-point PPR scoring system for these rankings, which you can use in coordination with the Week 5 edition of Start Em, Sit Em. At Sports Illustrated, we always have you covered!
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.
Be sure to check back for updates … and good luck everyone!
