Outlook Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo vs. Saints — Heavy Volume Expected Despite Recent Ball-Security Troubles
Cam Skattebo continues to operate as the Giants' lead back heading into a home matchup against New Orleans, though a costly overtime fumble last week highlighted ongoing ball-security issues. Despite minor rotation with Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Najee Harris, Skattebo remains atop the depth chart and carries no injury designation after logging 31 carries over his past two contests.
Rostered everywhere with an 89% start rate, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into lineups across all formats. Our weekly projection forecasts roughly 20 carries for 73 rushing yards and three receptions for 15.7 fantasy points, offering a stable workload in a tightly projected home battle.

Outlook Dameon Pierce
Dameon Pierce vs. Carolina — Increased Workload Beckons Amid Backfield Injuries
Following injuries to Tank Bigsby and Will Shipley, plus Saquon Barkley's lingering hamstring issue, Dameon Pierce stepped up to log 11 carries and five targets in his Eagles debut. Philadelphia's depth chart is severely depleted, leaving Pierce as the primary healthy early-down back heading into Week 6.
Pierce was inefficient last week with only 14 rushing yards, but our weekly model projects him for 9.2 rushes, 38 rushing yards, and 7.2 fantasy points. With his roster rate spiking to 22%, he serves as a viable flex option in deeper leagues, though a modest 40.5 game total caps his overall scoring upside.
