Geronimo Allison, WR, Green Bay Packers

Yahoo! Ownership: 21%

Geronimo Allison recorded a career day with 6 catches for 122 yards against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 3 while filling in as the Green Bay Packers' third wideout with Randall Cobb sidelined due to injury. With Davante Adams still feeling the effects the vicious (and dirty) hit he took in Week 4, and still in the NFL's concussion protocol, Allison could be called upon once again to start for the Pack. If he does, he has a tasty matchup that makes him worth playing in Week 5.

Green Bay is traveling to Texas to face the Dallas Cowboys in what Vegas believes to be the highest-scoring game of the day, evidenced by an over/under of 52.0 points. If the game is indeed a shootout, Green Bay may need to rely on the arm of Aaron Rodgers to bring them through, as starting running back Ty Montgomery has been limited in practice and is looking questionable to play.

Dallas' biggest defensive weakness happens to come against the pass. The 'Boys have allowed the fourth-most passing touchdowns this season (eight) while opposing wideouts have collected more than 20 fantasy points per game, the 11th-most in the league.
