Fantasy Football Week 5: Backup Running Backs to Watch

In Week 5 of fantasy football, several backup running backs are expected to take on significant roles following their success in Week 4. Notable players include TreVeyon Henderson and Tyler Allgeier, who could be valuable starters due to injuries affecting other players.

During Week 4, several backup running backs excelled, with Kyle Monangai, Emanuel Wilson, and Brian Robinson Jr. among the top performers. Wilson, Kamara, and Gordon stepped in as injury replacements, while Monangai and others had standout games.

For the upcoming week, Henderson is anticipated to be a must-start if Rhamondre Stevenson is unable to play against Las Vegas. Allgeier may also be a flex option if Jeremiyah Love is out against Detroit. Other backups like Will Shipley and RJ Harvey are also being considered for their potential contributions.
