Green Bay Packers DFS Spin
Packers listed RB Aaron Jones, DB Eric Stokes, CB Jaire Alexander, and DB Rudy Ford questionable for Week 5 against the Raiders. Absent from the team’s final injury report were G Elgton Jenkins and G Jon Runyan while LB De’Vondre Campbell and S Zayne Anderson have been ruled out. The Packers secondary is slowly returning to health after a stretch of injury-plagued games. As for Jones, who managed just 20 offensive snaps in the team’s Week 4 loss to the Lions, a questionable tag does little to ease fantasy managers’ concerns of another reduced workload in Week 5.
Las Vegas Raiders DFS Spin
Raiders WR Davante Adams is questionable for Week 5 against the Packers. Adams missed practice on Thursday and Friday before getting in a limited session Saturday with a shoulder injury, placing his status in doubt for a showdown with his former team on Monday Night Football. It would be difficult to envision Adams missing the opportunity to compete against the Packers, but fantasy managers would do well to have a backup plan in place just in case.

Packers vs. Raiders Prediction:
Take Vegas. After leading the NFL in rushing last season, Josh Jacobs has not rushed for more than 62 yards in a single game this season. Until tonight, that is. The Packers have allowed a whopping 155.3 rushing yards per game this season, which ranks third in the NFL. Jimy Garoppolo has also cleared the league’s concussion protocol and will play tonight. For what it’s worth, he’s 3-1 lifetime against the Packers, which include two playoff wins.
