DraftKing’s NFT Reignmakers Football Week 5 Contest Recap for Sunday’s slate
The Week 5 Reignmakers main roster and Thursday/Sunday matchups are in the books, and we’re over a quarter of the way through the NFL regular season. It was a high-scoring week overall, led by the Bills’ big week when they beat the Steelers. The Seahawks and Saints also put up big points while a few players late in the game stepped up to push their teams to a strong finish.
Let’s take a closer look at some key contests last week – we’ll look at their roster construction, how the matches played out and the best card in their lineup.

Every player in the lineup produced over 30 DKFP led by Josh Allen Elite #116, who threw for four touchdowns and over 400 yards while adding 42 rushing yards as well to finish with 39.16 DKFP.
