A lot just changed after week five in the NFL, and here's what I mean.

0:03.7

There were a decent amount of injuries, especially to some of the game's biggest stars,

0:07.4

and how is it going to impact you and your fantasy team?

0:09.9

Well, I'm glad you asked, because here are the players who will benefit the most on your waiver

0:14.1

in your league.

0:15.1

You should pick them up before your friends do.

0:16.8

And we'll start in Arizona with a running back that you probably haven't heard of, and I'm going to try and say his name, Amari Dermakato, and this is what you're going to see here. This guy's literally unowned. And this is the reason why I bring up his name because of this right here. James Connor got hurt this past week. Didn't return with a knee injury. He has a history of knee injuries. And as Jeff Mueller points out right here, it could be based on the video, a twisting of his right meniscus. He then later clarifies that it was actually the left meniscus because the video was

This could be big one here, multi-week for Connor.

the role of James Connor. Now let's give you some more background and context on

1:10.8

who a Mary is, Der Mercado. He is an undrafted rookie at a TCU. And he actually played five seasons at

1:16.2

TCU and it was until his last year, his 50 year, senior year last year, where he actually saw a good

1:20.2

amount of usage. He saw 121 carries, nearly 700 rushing yards, seven total touchdowns during this time. He was actually a backup to Kendrae Miller at TCU last year,

1:28.1

the same to middle round rookie who posted nearly 1400 rushing yards last year. Now, Mary himself is actually
