Fantasy Football Week 5 Waiver Wire Highlights

• Justin Fields (QB – PIT): Justin Fields is quietly having an Anthony Richardson-type breakout season. Coming off a huge performance with 312 passing yards, a touchdown, 55 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns, Fields has climbed into the top-five fantasy QBs in points per game. Despite offensive line struggles, he continues to overcome adversity and put up big numbers. With a favorable schedule ahead, Fields is a must-add and could help win fantasy leagues in 2024.
• Rico Dowdle (RB – DAL): On the running back front, Rico Dowdle has been a sleeper pick for weeks yet is still available in many leagues. Dowdle is seeing his role expand in Dallas, particularly as Ezekiel Elliott‘s production continues to dwindle. Averaging nearly 11 touches a game, Dowdle’s involvement in both the rushing and passing games makes him a valuable pickup, especially with bye weeks on the horizon.
• Kareem Hunt (RB – KC): Kareem Hunt surprised many by becoming the lead back in the Chiefs’ offense, stepping up with 14 carries for 69 yards in his recent game. With Rashee Rice potentially out for an extended period, Hunt is poised to take on a larger role in a Kansas City offense that may rely heavily on the run. Currently available in 60% of leagues, Hunt presents a valuable option for managers looking for immediate help at running back, especially as the Chiefs navigate injury woes among their pass-catchers.
