Week 5 will be another busy week on the waiver wire as Week 4 was another rough week in the NFL for fantasy football players who invested their first- or second-round picks on running backs. Nick Chubb and Austin Ekeler both left their games early after suffering what appeared to be serious injuries. At one point, Chris Carson was evaluated for a concussion but was able to return. Wide receivers Mike Evans and DeVante Parker also left the field but both pass-catchers returned to produce solid stats.
But for those that did lose Chubb or Ekeler, the waiver wire can be your saving grace.
