Green Bay @ Las Vegas
Team Totals: Packers 22.5, Raiders 22.5
Nationally exposed by the Lions’ dominant pass rush in Week 4, Jordan Love encounters an obvious rebound spot against the Raiders, who’ve yielded the NFL’s seventh-most fantasy QB points. Russell Wilson, Josh Allen, Kenny Pickett, and Justin Herbert have all dropped multiple touchdown passes on Las Vegas. … Aaron Jones (hamstring) returned from his two-week absence last Thursday night but was on a snap count against the Lions. A.J. Dillon out-snapped Jones 67% to 35%, yet each back saw just five carries with Jones narrowly out-targeting Dillon 2 to 1. Now coming off a mini-bye, Jones should be near 100% against a Raiders defense surrendering the league’s 13th-most fantasy points to running backs. Dillon touches are hurting the Packers’ offense. Getting the ball to Jones is their best means of attack.
Luke Musgrave played just 14 snaps in Week 4 before leaving with a concussion, leading to increased usage for H-back type Josiah Deguara (63% snaps) and third-round rookie Tucker Kraft (23%). Vegas has given up the NFL’s 11th-most catches (21) to tight ends. Musgrave cleared protocol this week and will start against the Raiders. He’s a fringe TE1/2 and entirely playable on single-game DFS slates.
