BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 33% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Fantasy managers were likely very turned off by Sam Howell after his Week 3 dud against the Buffalo Bills. He scored just 0.6 points in that matchup, compiling four turnovers and not scoring a single touchdown.
However, he's scored at least 15 points in his four other games with a high of 25.4 points this past weekend in a loss to the Bears. In those four other games, Howell has averaged 20.36 points per game. That's the same average Jalen Hurts had through Weeks 1-4 prior to his 27.3 outing in Week 5.
Howell is currently on pace for 4,587 passing yards and 20 touchdowns. He's also on pace to chip in with 343 rushing yards. He has the benefit of having very good weapons around him, including receivers Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, and Curtis Samuel. He also has tight end Logan Thomas and running back Brian Robinson Jr. It's a very strong group of skilled players around him that helps elevate his game.
He plays against the Falcons in Week 6, who have allowed the 17th-most points to quarterbacks this season.
