Fantasy football start or sit Week 5: Alvin Kamara, Emanuel Wilson, DK Metcalf

In Week 5 of fantasy football, it's essential to decide whether to start or sit key players such as Alvin Kamara, Emanuel Wilson, and DK Metcalf. Kamara, the New Orleans Saints running back, had a mixed Week 4 performance, rushing for only 29 yards but adding 35 yards on five catches and scoring twice. However, considering the Vikings' strong defense against running backs, it's advisable to sit Kamara for Week 5.

Wilson, the Seattle Seahawks running back, had a fantastic Week 4, but with RB1 George Holani potentially out, Kamara's role might diminish, making the Seahawks' defense an even tougher test for him. Therefore, it's best to start Wilson in Week 5. Metcalf, the Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver, showed promise in Week 4, but with the Steelers lacking depth at the position due to Michael Pittman Jr.'s injury, Metcalf becomes a viable start this week.

The Colts' defense, which allows the ninth-most fantasy points per contest to wideouts, also makes Metcalf a favorable matchup. Consequently, Metcalf should be started in Week 5.
