0:00.0	Welcome back, everybody, to the Football Guys Daily Update. You give us 10 minutes. We'll give you
0:04.5	everything you need to know to make you the most informed fantasy football player in your league.
0:08.8	I'm Mike Dempsey alone with Football Guy's own Bob Harris. Welcome to Week 5, Bob. We've got
0:13.5	Thursday night football. The Rams taking on some team. I don't recognize them.
0:19.5	Ostensibly the 49ers. No Brock Purdy, no Joanne Jennings, no Ricky Pearsall,
0:24.4	no Jordan Watkins, Bob. My goodness, what a beat-up group. This is. Mack Jones will get the
0:31.1	start tonight. If you had to pick one 49er wide receiver, is there one that is worth playing
0:37.1	tonight? Christian McCaffrey? He doesn't count. Is there one that is worth playing tonight?
0:38.0	Christian McCaffrey? He doesn't count. Neither is Jake Tongus.
0:43.1	Okay. Our football guy's colleague Jason Wood suggested if McAfrey doesn't volume his way to a massive
0:48.1	week, the world makes no sense. Here's what it's looking like right now. The wide receivers

1:03.6	It's possible they elevate Russell Gage from the practice squad.
1:06.9	He has not caught a football since 2022.
1:09.5	If you made me play one, it would be born. He has some experience with Mack Jones. That makes the most sense. And again, this is a little bit of a nerve-wracking situation. I don't know if Mac Jones has his full mobility. You know how I feel about this pass rush the Rams have if he'll be able to fully protect himself. So it should be an interesting game. It should be. Tyler Higby, by the way, is doubtful to go for the Rams have if he'll be able to fully protect himself. So it should be an interesting game.
1:28.6	It should be. Tyler Higby, by the way, is doubtful to go for the Rams tonight, but the only real
1:32.6	skill player of significance that you need to be aware of there. Elsewhere in the NFC West Bob,
1:37.7	we find out Trey Benson now needs surgery, arthroscopic variety to repair a meniscus issue.
