Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Tyrell Williams caught five of six passes for 115 yards and a touchdown against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 4. But, does that make him worth starting against the New York Giants in Week 5?
Fantasy football start/sit, Week 5: What to do with Tyrell Williams
The Chargers receiver had a huge game last week. Should you start him in Week 5? We break down the fantasy implications.

That’s the burning question on the minds of fantasy owners right now.
Fantasy impact: To answer that question, it is important to consider the Giants have been great against the pass this year. They’re giving up just 224.5 passing yards per game this season.
What’s also important to note is that 75 of Williams’ yards last week came on just a single catch. On the plus side, he is averaging six targets a game.
Williams has been held in check by Kansas City and Denver so far this season, and there’s no reason to think the Giants won’t do the same. He’s had his opportunities in the past and will put up some big games in the future, but this Sunday is not one of those games. Sit Williams.
Recommendation: Sit
