Outlook Roschon Johnson
Roschon Johnson at Green Bay — Elevated Role in NFC North Clash
With Kyle Monangai ruled out due to injury, Roschon Johnson steps up as the primary complement behind D'Andre Swift for Chicago's road matchup against the Packers. While Johnson has logged limited work so far this season, tallying four carries for 16 yards in his lone active appearance, the opening in the backfield hierarchy expands his weekly touch floor.
Our weekly projections slate him for roughly seven carries for 28 rushing yards and a catch, landing at about 5.9 fantasy points. Given his low roster rate and backup duties behind Swift, Johnson is best reserved as a deep-league stash or emergency flex play rather than a trusted starting option this week.

Justin Herbert vs. Denver — Shorthanded Offense Dents Fantasy Value
Justin Herbert enters Week 5 under heavy siege, with the Chargers' offensive front severely compromised by recent injuries to starting tackles Rashawn Slater and Joe Alt, while wideout Quentin Johnston is also ruled out. Herbert has absorbed continuous pressure during Los Angeles' winless 0-4 start, throwing six interceptions over four games while battling consistency.
Fantasy trust has plummeted, driving his start rate down to 17% across leagues. While our models project a serviceable 16.3 fantasy points on approximately 230 passing yards and 25 rushing yards, Denver's defense and a low 41.5 over/under make Herbert a volatile option best suited as a matchup-dependent QB2.
