Fantasy Football: 4 Things We Learned From Week 5
Roger Lewis Is the Only Healthy Wide Receiver on the Giants
In case you missed it, Odell Beckham suffered a devastating injury in his matchup against the Chargers this Sunday. It's awful news for those who draft OBJ in fantasy leagues this year and for fans of the NFL in general.
Unfortunately, the bad news didn't stop there for the Giants. Beckham's teammates Sterling Shepard, Brandon Marshall and Dwayne Harris each suffered injuries of their own and are expected to miss time, as well.
So who's left? Roger Lewis, the undrafted free agent out of the 2016 NFL draft class.
You have to check out Lewis in your fantasy leagues. Potential volume alone makes him a valuable add, but there are other reasons to like Lewis, as well.
For starters, he's familiar with the offense. As a rookie last year, he played 10 games for the Giants, and when Beckham was injured to start the season, Lewis played a significant amount of snaps.
Lewis also has a pretty impressive college track record, totaling 158 catches, 2,638 yards and 23 touchdowns (16 in his final season) across his two years at Bowling Green.
Lewis is the last man standing in the Giants' wide receiver group, and you need to add him if you're hurting at wide receiver.
