2025 Fantasy Football Impact
You probably already knew that Taylor's pretty good. He just stays glued into fantasy football lineups.
You might not have known that the Vegas run D has gotten off to a solid start this season.
Sunday found both Taylor and Colts RBs on whole averaging just 3.9 yards per rush. The Raiders entered the game allowing 4.0 per rush, 13th in the league. But they also ranked 11th in rush DVOA entering Sunday's game and 10th-toughest on RB scoring by our adjusted fantasy points allowed.
The four rushing scores yielded to Colts RBs on Sunday is probably going to change that ranking quite a bit. But don't overrate the quality of the matchup for Titans RB Tony Pollard in Week 6.
After that the Raiders visit the Chiefs and then get a Week 7 bye.
Taylor gets a home date with the Cardinals in Week 6.
