Amon-Ra St. Brown Could Be Poised for Massive Game in Week 5

Friday, October 9, 7:28 PM

Across four games in 2026, Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has recorded 31 catches for 303 yards and five touchdowns on 46 targets. The 26-year-old currently ranks as the WR3 in overall PPR scoring and the WR4 on a per-game basis. In Week 5, St. Brown and the Lions will take on the Arizona Cardinals. Arizona has had major issues defending the pass so far this season, allowing 11 touchdown receptions through four games and ranking dead last in the NFL in yards per pass attempt allowed (9.1). The Lions have also shown a tendency for playing high-scoring, pass-heavy games, as their defense has allowed at least 30 points in three out of four games and quarterback Jared Goff is currently averaging over 40 pass attempts per game. Between the matchup and the state of the Detroit defense, St. Brown remains a clear high-end WR1 option for fantasy managers in Week 5.

Puka Nacua Smothered with Dozens of Targets in Loss

Monday, October 12, 8:18 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua caught 17 of his 24 targets for 138 yards and one touchdown during Monday's Week 5 loss against the Buffalo Bills in overtime. Although Los Angeles didn't win, it was no fault of Nacua's. The superstar receiver handled an extraordinarily large role, as his 24 targets amounted to a staggering 44.4% target share. Nacua has only played three games this season, and Monday's was easily his best. He's now averaging 10.3 catches, 112.3 receiving yards, and 0.7 total touchdowns per game so far. It's no secret by now that Nacua will continue to operate as a high-end WR1 as long as he stays healthy. The 25-year-old should continue to feast in Week 6 against the Arizona Cardinals, who just allowed Jameson Williams to rack up 47 yards and two touchdowns.
