Fantasy Impact: As feared, Hargrave tore his Achilles tendon in Sunday's game. This is certainly a blow to the Packers' defensive-line depth. Chris McClellan and Jonathan Ford should see an uptick in snaps.

The Packers D/ST registered four sacks while also forcing five turnovers (three interceptions, two fumble recoveries) in a 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 5.
Fantasy Impact: The defense took advantage of a Chicago offense forced into using Tyson Bagent and Case Keenum behind center, holding the offense to 246 offensive yards in the win. The unit will look to slow down an explosive Dallas Cowboys offense in Week 6.

Trey Smack converted one of his three field goal attempts as well as two of his three extra point attempts to finish with five points in the Packers’ 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 5.
Fantasy Impact: Smack has struggled to convert consistently of late, missing kicks in two of the last three games. The kicker will look to get back on track in a Week 6 contest against the Dallas Cowboys.

Jordan Love completed 25-of-31 pass attempts for 367 yards and two touchdowns while also rushing once for six yards in the Packers' 31-7 Week 5 win over the Chicago Bears.
Fantasy Impact: Love has flashed impactful output behind center, passing for over 300 yards in three of the first five contests. The quarterback will look to take advantage of a generous Dallas Cowboys defense in Week 6.

Christian Watson hauled in six of his team-leading eight targets for a team-high 143 yards and two touchdowns in the Packers' 31-7 Week 5 win over the Chicago Bears.
Fantasy Impact: Watson has had a nose for the end zone to begin the season, hauling in one or more touchdowns in four of the first five games. The wideout remains a dynamic pass-catching option in a Green Bay passing attack looking for more consistent output, with a Week 6 contest against the Dallas Cowboys up next.

Matthew Golden hauled in six of his seven targets for 123 yards in the Packers' 31-7 Week 5 win over the Chicago Bears.
Fantasy Impact: Golden has seen steady involvement in the Green Bay passing attack to begin the season, recording over 90 receiving yards in three of the first five games. The wideout remains one of the more impactful pass-catching options for quarterback Jordan Love, with a Week 6 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys up next.

Tucker Kraft caught all five of his targets for 64 yards while also rushing once for two yards in the Packers' 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 5.
Fantasy Impact: Kraft has seen increased involvement in the Green Bay passing attack of late, logging five or more targets in each of his last three contests. The tight end will look to offer more impactful output moving forward, with a Week 6 contest against the Dallas Cowboys up next.

MarShawn Lloyd carried the ball 10 times for 31 yards and two touchdowns while also catching one of his two targets for six yards in the Packers' 31-7 Week 5 win over the Chicago Bears.
Fantasy Impact: Lloyd has made minimal impact as the primary option in the Green Bay backfield to begin the season, rushing for less than 40 yards in each of the first five games. The running back remains difficult to trust despite his No. 1 role ahead of a Week 6 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys.

Kaleb Johnson rushed seven times for 26 yards in the Packers' 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 5.
Fantasy Impact: Johnson has struggled to make an impact out of the Green Bay backfield to this point, finishing with less than 45 rushing yards in each of his four contests. The running back remains difficult to trust ahead of a Week 6 contest against the Dallas Cowboys.

Pierre Strong Jr. rushed five times for seven yards while also catching three of his four targets for 11 yards in the Packers' 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 5.
Fantasy Impact: Strong Jr. struggled to make an impact in his first game action of the season, averaging just 1.4 yards per carry in a winning effort. The running back can remain off rosters in all formats ahead of a Week 6 contest against the Dallas Cowboys.
Category: Game Recaps
Bo Melton caught three of his four targets for 20 yards in the Packers' 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 5.
Fantasy Impact: Melton has been minimally involved in the Green Bay passing attack to this point, finishing with less than two targets in four of the first five games. The wideout can be left off rosters in all formats ahead of a Week 6 contest against the Dallas Cowboys.
Category: Game Recaps
Skyy Moore failed to catch his only target before exiting in the Packers' 31-7 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 5.
Fantasy Impact: Moore remains minimally involved in the Green Bay passing attack, recording two receptions or less in four of five contests. The wideout can remain off rosters in all formats ahead of a Week 6 contest against the Dallas Cowboys.

The Packers placed RB Chris Brooks on injured reserve.
Fantasy Impact: Brooks will miss at least the next four weeks. His absence shouldn't have a huge impact for fantasy managers.

Savion Williams (ankle) was limited at practice again on Thursday. (Source: Green Bay Packers)
Fantasy Impact: The Packers recently opened Williams' 21-day practice window, and he was able to practice in a limited fashion for a second-straight day on Thursday. He may play in Week 5, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to have much of a fantasy impact even if he's cleared to play this week.

Lukas Van Ness (shoulder) was listed as limited at practice on Thursday. (Source: Green Bay Packers)
Fantasy Impact: Van Ness was limited for another practice on Thursday as he continues to manage a nagging shoulder issue of some kind. He should be available to play in Week 5, however, and the Packers will need him to play and perform well this week if they want to slow down Chicago's offense.

Jacob Monk (quad) was absent from Green Bay's practice on Thursday. (Source: Green Bay Packers)
Fantasy Impact: Green Bay continues to struggle with numerous injuries to their offensive front. Monk is among them and wasn't able to practice on Thursday due to a quad injury. He seems likely to be sidelined in Week 5.

Aaron Banks (knee/toe) missed another practice session on Thursday. (Source: Green Bay Packers)
Fantasy Impact: To no surprise, the veteran missed another practice on Thursday due to the same issues that have been bothering him for several weeks. He's unlikely to play in Week 5, which will again leave Green Bay's offensive line weaker than usual ahead of a matchup against the Bears.

Packers LB Edgerrin Cooper will be out for the season after tearing his Achilles. (Source: Ian Rapoport on Twitter)
