Week 5 running back start or sit

Which running backs to start in week 5, and why.

Running back weeks live or die on workload: who gets the carries, who gets the goal-line work, and who is behind an injury on the same depth chart.

No call yet for week 5 running backs. We publish a start/sit call only when we have real weekly projections and real injury status for both players. We do not have those yet, so there is nothing here to read.

We would rather show you an empty page than a confident guess. Sportsbooks do not price individual skill players in preseason, because nobody knows who plays or for how long, so the market-implied numbers this tool is built on begin with the regular season. When they arrive, every call gets published with its reasoning, locked at kickoff, and graded against what actually happened.
