DeAndre Hopkins is back to being a premier fantasy receiver.

After a disastrous 2016 campaign, which was marred by horrific quarterback play, Hopkins never could find rhythm in the Houston Texans offense, despite getting 150 targets. Far too many of those targets were uncatchable, but that’s not been the case with Deshaun Watson, who is getting the ball to Hopkins plenty.

That came to a head in Week 4 when Hopkins tourched the Tennessee Titans for 10 grabs, 107 yards, and one score. He’s now caught at least seven passes in every game this season. However, Hopkins is no longer the only viable fantasy receiver in Houston. Will Fuller returned from his broken collarbone to catch two touchdowns against Tennessee.

Who will have breakout games in Week 5? Let us help you solve that question with a fresh set of fantasy rankings for receivers in standard leagues.
