Justin Fields Highly Productive as Passer in Week 5 Loss

Sunday, October 5, 7:07 PM

New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields completed 32 of 46 pass attempts for 283 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Sunday's Week 5 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. He took five sacks but also rushed for 26 yards. Although the Jets are 0-5 this season, Fields has been quite productive from a fantasy perspective. In the three games where he has been fully healthy, Fields is averaging 28.2 fantasy points. He has seven total touchdowns and zero interceptions this year, though he also has two lost fumbles to his name. We've known about his rushing ability for quite some time, but we're also starting to see flashes of what he can do throwing the football -- even if it comes in garbage time. The Ohio State product is a mid-to-low fantasy QB1 for Week 6 against a strong Denver Broncos defense.

Bryce Young Offers QB2 Value

Friday, October 3, 6:16 PM

Carolina Panthers quarterback Bryce Young hasn't been able to find much success early in the season. Young posted a 328-yard performance in Week 2, but has been quiet outside of that. In his other three games, Young has been held to 154 passing yards or less. The Panthers offense isn't clicking right now, but they do get a favorable matchup in Week 5. They'll go up against the shaky Miami Dolphins secondary this weekend. Sadly, this offense doesn't have the weapons to get the job done on a consistent basis. Young will offer low-end QB2 value for this weekend.
