Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is returning from a bye in Week 5 for an AFC North showdown against the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. Cleveland has been tough on opposing quarterbacks, holding the position to the sixth-fewest fantasy points per game. However, with the Browns even more dominant against the run, Pittsburgh may be forced to lean on Rodgers and the air attack despite Jaylen Warren's return. Though receiver Calvin Austin III (shoulder) has been ruled out, Rodgers could find success with his favorite target, DK Metcalf, after the two displayed strong chemistry in Week 4. Still, this contest is expected to be a low-scoring defensive battle, keeping Rodgers in the low-end QB2 range in superflex leagues.

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart is active and will operate as the team's backup for Week 1 against the Washington Commanders. Meanwhile, Jameis Winston is inactive as the team's emergency third quarterback. This depth chart decision from the coaching staff aligns with recent rumors that indicated Dart may have earned the backup job and could even make his NFL debut in Week 1. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport recently noted that the Giants have a package of plays ready for Dart, so it's possible that he could relieve starter Russell Wilson for a handful of snaps on Sunday afternoon. Still, Dart is merely a dynasty stash at this point, as he'd need to be inserted as the full-time starter before warranting any interest in redraft leagues. Meanwhile, Winston should be left on waivers in all leagues.
