Travis Etienne is projected to push past 70 rushing yards in Week 5 as Jacksonville hosts Kansas City, with a 71-yard projection backing the +110 line at FanDuel. The Chiefs’ injury-plagued receiving corps has Tyquan Thornton in the spotlight, while Brian Thomas Jr. draws TD odds around +185 as Jacksonville looks to diversify its scoring threat. SportsLine’s AI models weigh these Week 5 bets, alongside promos from Caesars and DraftKings, to spotlight value plays and longshots.

Jacksonville faces Kansas City in Monday Night Football as underdogs, but the Jaguars carry home-field energy and a defense that has forced multiple turnovers in every game. The game hinges on cleaner play from Trevor Lawrence and a sustained run game from Travis Etienne Jr., who has been among the league leaders in yards per rush and total yards. If Jacksonville can pressure Mahomes while protecting the ball, they stay viable in a prime-time upset bid.

Key threads for fantasy managers: Etienne's workload will determine the ceiling of Jaguars' offense, Worthy’s health could unlock a broader KC attack, and Jacksonville must win the turnover battle to swing momentum. If Worthy is limited, Rashee Rice and KC’s other weapons become more relevant for DFS and season-long projections. This matchup tests coaching, execution, and the ability to control pace against a high-powered rival.
