Fantasy Football Player Notes

The ascension of Justin Herbert in fantasy circles continued in the Chargers' last-minute victory against Cincinnati last week. After finishing outside the top 20 quarterbacks in fantasy points in five straight games to start the year, Herbert has now finished inside the top 20 in his last five. That includes four straight QB1 finishes in 12-team leagues. Herbert has a great chance to make it five in a row when the Chargers host the Baltimore Ravens on Monday night. Baltimore is a pass-funnel defense and has allowed the third-most fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks this season. Given Herbert's increased productivity of late, expect more of the same from the Chargers' signal-caller in this matchup.
