Las Vegas Raiders: 2021 Fantasy Football Week 5 Start or Sit
By Alex Perl
Entering Week 5 of the 2021 NFL season, we get you ready for your fantasy football weekend, guiding you in terms of what Las Vegas Raiders to start or sit.
The Las Vegas Raiders tasted defeat for the first time on Monday, and with such a low-scoring affair (well at least for the Raiders), there was no dominant Fantasy Football performer. Hopefully, their fortunes change this week against much weaker opposition in the Chicago Bears (2-2).
The Bears sport one of the best pass-rushing defenses in the NFL, and this may cause some headaches for an offensive line that struggled heavily against the Los Angeles Chargers pass rush on Monday night. Khalil Mack will be going up against his old team in the Raiders, and while he has not been the same player for the Bears as he was in the Silver and Black, he still must be accounted for.
When it comes to the NFL, no team has such a contrast in terms of their offense and defense as Chicago. Their offense is one of the worst in all of the sport, and coming into Vegas with a rookie at quarterback should fare well for the Silver and Black in this one.
Let’s take a look at some Raiders who you should start or sit in your fantasy lineups.
