This Sunday Night Football game in Week 5 will pit the Baltimore Ravens against the Atlanta Falcons, offering some clear fantasy football start and sit recommendations. Key players to start include wide receiver Drake London, running backs Bijan Robinson and Derrick Henry, and wide receiver Zay Flowers if he suits up. However, Falcons quarterback Lamar Jackson will miss the game due to an ankle injury, which notably impacts the offensive outlook for Baltimore.

Despite Lamar Jackson being sidelined, Mark Andrews remains a strong fantasy start at tight end this week. Andrews has been consistently targeted, with no game below five targets and multiple outings above six this season, tallying an average of 9.7 points per game. His matchup against the Falcons is favorable, as Atlanta has allowed the 13th most points to tight ends this year, making Andrews a reliable option though not expected to have a breakout performance.

On the flip side, Brian Robinson Jr. is advised to be left on the bench this week despite a strong recent performance and a season average of 12.1 points per game. Robinson faces stiff competition for touches from teammate Bijan Robinson, limiting his overall volume. Additionally, Baltimore's run defense is solid, ranking 22nd in fantasy points allowed to running backs, which dampens Robinson’s scoring potential for this matchup.

Tight end Kyle Pitts is another player fantasy managers should consider sitting due to his struggles in the early season. He has posted a disappointing 2.9 points per game average and has yet to receive more than three targets in any contest. Although Pitts was a high-profile draft pick and had a productive previous season, his usage this year has been minimal, and the matchup against Baltimore’s defense, which ranks 18th in points allowed to tight ends, does not inspire confidence in his fantasy output for Week 5.
