MIAMI, Sept. 30 (UPI) -- Ja'Marr Chase, Amon-Ra St. Brown and Justin Jefferson lead my Top 50 fantasy football wide receiver rankings for Week 5.
Puka Nacua and Jaxon Smith-Njigba join Chase and St. Brown in my Top 5. Davante Adams, Deebo Samuel, Garrett Wilson, Emeka Egbuka and Nico Collins are among my other Top 10 options.
Continue to monitor the status of Terry McLaurin and Ricky Pearsall who are in doubt for Week 5.
My top waiver-wire and free agent targets for Week 5 are available here.
All of my positional rankings will be updated until Week 5 kickoffs. Players also will be moved out of or adjusted within the rankings based on injuries. Be sure to monitor your fantasy football team lineups.
Players from the Chicago Bears, Pittsburgh Steelers, Green Bay Packers and Atlanta Falcons, who are on bye, should be benched or, in some cases, dropped from rosters.
