Zay Flowers - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Week 3 fantasy football wide receiver rankings for half-PPR scoring, as of September 21, 2023. Set winning lineups with our Week 3 ranks for fantasy football and the 2023 NFL season.

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Today, we will look at our Week 3 half-PPR wide receiver rankings for fantasy football as of September 21st. Week 2 had some surprising performances, such as Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua, who was targeted a whopping 20 times in last Sunday's loss to the 49ers. The Rams rookie wideout has caught 25 passes for 266 yards over two games. Our goal, as always, is to help you set those winning lineups, so let's see where key players such as Puka Nacua, Zay Flowers, Josh Reynolds, Tank Dell, Nico Collins, Robert Woods, Jahan Dotson, Skyy Moore, DJ Moore, and Drake London rank among others.

Our half-PPR fantasy football wide receiver rankings are put together by Nick Mariano. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will also find a summary of the important fantasy football injury news for this week. There are always key injuries to keep track of, so be sure to check back until kickoff.

You should also bookmark our fantasy football rankings portal and check back regularly for updates. In addition to these half-PPR rankings, read our fantasy football articles and analysis - our NFL team discusses lineup sleepers, busts, NFL players to start and sit, waiver wire pickups, and so much more. Most importantly, our brand new free mobile app is a must-have - download it and configure your notifications. We deliver all the top NFL news, injuries, and fantasy analysis 24x7 with our free push notification alerts!
