Ohio State's Devin McCuin Expected to be Day 1 Starter
Aug 9, 2026, 1:41 PM ET
Ohio State wide receiver Devin McCuin is viewed as the leader in the program to start alongside wideouts Jeremiah Smith and Brandon Inniss, according to Spencer Holbrook of Lettermen Row. McCuin is a UTSA transfer who has tallied 152 receptions for 1,696 yards and 16 touchdowns in 32 career games. Projected backup Kyle Parker hasn't fully practiced due to an injury, while star freshman Chris Henry Jr. is continuing to work his way into the offense. Ohio State has had one of the best wide receiver units in the country for most of the last decade, and that won't change with Smith leading the pack. McCuin has been one of the early stars of training camp, and if he can stand out in that position room, he's worth keeping an eye on when the season begins.--Jackson SparksSource: Spencer Holbrook - Lettermen Row.

Oklahoma star defensive lineman David Stone (undisclosed) is questionable to suit up for the Sooners as they take on SEC opponent Georgia on Saturday afternoon. Stone is second among Oklahoma defensive linemen in tackles with 12 on the season, while he has also added a .5 sack. The Sooners square off with a Georgia offense that put up 45 points in a blowout win over Arkansas in Week 3, which actually dropped their season scoring average to 59.3 points per game, the best mark in the country. Oklahoma needs all the help it can get against a vaunted Bulldogs offense this weekend.--Alex BraskySource: SEC availability report

Frazier is RotoBaller's 39th-ranked running back and is projected to score 11.8 fantasy points against the Sooners this weekend. Oklahoma has allowed 111 yards rushing per game this season.

Texas running back Hollywood Smothers' status for Saturday's SEC matchup with Tennessee is up in the air, as he is questionable with a lower-body injury, according to On3's Pete Nakos. Smothers has led the Longhorns with 198 yards rushing on 41 carries this season, scoring two rushing touchdowns, which is tied for the team lead with fellow running back Raleek Brown. Smothers averaged 5.4 yards per carry during a win over UTSA this past week, adding two receptions for 11 yards. He has seven receptions for 54 yards and a touchdown receiving on the year. Tennessee limited Kennesaw State's leading ball-carrier, quarterback Rickie Collins, to just 2.6 yards per carry a week ago. --Alex BraskySource: Pete Nakos

Florida wide receiver Eric Singleton (ankle) has a chance to suit up in Week 4, as he has been listed as questionable and will be a game-time decision for the Gators against Ole Miss, per ESPN's Pete Thamel. Singleton injured his ankle in Week 1 before he could record a reception, but the Auburn transfer finished the 2025 campaign with 58 catches for 534 yards and three touchdowns. Before his injury, it was expected he would be a key element of Florida's passing game this season. The Gators' leading receiver, Vernell Brown III, has 4 receptions for 246 yards and two touchdowns this year. This weekend, Florida takes on a Rebels defense that is fresh off a solid effort against LSU quarterback Sam Leavitt, who was limited to just 5.9 yards per attempt in a 32-24 defeat.--Alex BraskySource: Pete Thamel

He finished the game with nine carries for 43 yards and a touchdown, while also recording two receptions for -2 yards.

Oregon tight end Jamari Johnson (undisclosed) is questionable for the Ducks entering Saturday's matchup with USC, per the Big Ten availability report. Oregon head coach Dan Lanning said earlier this week that Johnson is "likely to play," according to 247 Sports' Matt Prehm, though a final decision regarding his status has yet to be reached as of Wednesday night. Johnson has missed each of the Ducks' previous two games after finishing a thrilling Week 1 win over Boise State with four receptions for 57 yards and a touchdown.

USC wide receiver Trent Mosley (undisclosed) is doubtful to play on Saturday against Oregon, according to the Big Ten availability report. Mosley missed this past week's win over Rutgers after he started the season with 255 yards receiving and four touchdowns through the Trojans' first three games. In his absence, Kayden Dixon-Wyatt led USC in yards receiving and receptions with five catches for 77 yards, while Corey Simms finished a 42-35 win over the Scarlet Knights with four receptions for 72 yards and a touchdown. It was just two weeks ago that Oregon's pass defense allowed Oklahoma State wide receiver Wyatt Young to break out with five receptions for 121 yards and a touchdown during an uncharacteristically poor performance for the Ducks' resistance.--Alex BraskySource: Big Ten availability report

He is RotoBaller's 16th-ranked quarterback and is projected to score 24.8 fantasy points against the Cardinals this weekend.

Indiana defensive linemen Stephen Daley and Kellan Wyatt are eligible to play again after a Monroe Circuit Court judge granted them a preliminary injunction Wednesday, according to Pete Thamel of ESPN. Their temporary restraining order expired last week, leaving both players ineligible for Indiana's 38-0 win over Western Kentucky while they waited for the court's decision. The ruling is not a final resolution of the case, and Thamel reports that the NCAA is likely to appeal. Indiana has not yet confirmed whether either player will suit up Friday against Northwestern. Wyatt saw only nine defensive snaps against Howard and did not record a tackle before becoming ineligible for the Western Kentucky game. Their restored eligibility gives the Hoosiers two more veteran options along the defensive front entering Big Ten play.--Bruno MuléSource: Pete Thamel

Penn State wide receiver Koby Howard will be out for an extended period of time, head coach Matt Campbell announced Wednesday. Campbell added that the injury is not season-ending but did not provide a timetable, ruling Howard out for Saturday's Big Ten opener against Wisconsin after his status had been uncertain earlier in the week. Penn State will be without its leading receiver. Howard has 12 catches for 344 yards and two touchdowns through three games, including three receptions for 115 yards and a 70-yard score against Buffalo last week. He also scored on a 20-yard run in that game. Zay Robinson figures to see more snaps with Howard sidelined after working alongside him in the slot early this season.--Bruno MuléSource: On3

Houston's defense/special teams should be picked up and streamed in Week 4 against Georgia Southern. This season, Houston's DFST has been slightly above average, totaling 25 fantasy points and averaging 8.33 fantasy points per game. The strength of the Cougars' defense is their front seven. Through three games, they have allowed only 62.7 rushing yards per game, ranking ninth in the country. However, Houston's secondary has been a weak point, giving up 253 passing yards per game. Georgia Southern comes into this matchup averaging 21.7 points per game, 260 passing yards and 122 rushing yards per game. In Week 2, Georgia Southern faced Clemson and mustered only 22 rushing yards, completing just 57% of their 47 passing attempts. Per DraftKings, Houston is favored by 18.5 points over Georgia Southern. This game could get out of hand early, which could lead to a top-10 performance for Houston's DFST.--Chris BlomstrandSource: DraftKings

Kentucky's defense/special teams unit is a must-start option in Week 4 against South Alabama. Streaming defenses in college fantasy football is a great way to win your league, and this week Kentucky is a top option off the waiver wire, as they're owned in only 3% of Yahoo leagues. So far this season, they have been a solid unit, scoring 24 fantasy points and averaging eight fantasy points per game, despite two games against ranked opponents in Texas A&M and Alabama. Kentucky forced two turnovers in both of those ranked games. In Week 4, Kentucky will take on South Alabama, who are averaging 34.7 points per game and 443.7 yards per game. However, they haven't played a team with Kentucky's talent. If Kentucky can force South Alabama into turnovers, they should finish as a top-10 DFST in Week 4.--Chris BlomstrandSource: Yahoo Sports

Clemson quarterback Christopher Vizzina (elbow) is listed as probable for Clemson's Week 4 matchup against Cal on Friday. The senior sustained an elbow injury against Georgia Southern in Week 2 and missed Clemson's 28-20 win over North Carolina. True freshman Tait Reynolds played well in his first career start in the Week 3 win. This season, Vizzina has yet to play a full game; he was pulled in the season opener against LSU and was pulled due to the injury he sustained in Week 2. Vizzina has completed 60% of his 23 pass attempts for 102 yards, one touchdown, and 2 interceptions. Reynolds has completed 64% of his 62 pass attempts for 415 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. It's still not clear who will start for Clemson in Week 4.--Chris BlomstrandSource: Pete Thamel Of ESPN

After finding the end zone four times through the air during a win over South Carolina, Mississippi State quarterback Kamario Taylor will take on a Missouri defense that allowed Troy quarterback Goose Crowder to put up some quality numbers in Week 3. The Tigers have allowed opposing passers to average just 171 yards passing through three games this season, but Crowder went for 230 yards passing and a couple of touchdowns on 32 attempts a week ago. Now, Missouri is tasked with slowing down Taylor, who finished a Bulldogs Week 3 victory with 251 yards passing and four scores to go with another 33 yards rushing on eight carries. Taylor is RotoBaller's QB2 and is projected to score 32.5 fantasy points this week.--Alex BraskySource: RotoBaller

Wisconsin wide receiver Tyrell Henry put forth his most impressive performance of the season during a Week 3 matchup with Eastern Michigan. The Badgers' top pass catcher finished the win over EMU with a whopping 14 receptions for 160 yards and his first touchdown of the year, becoming the latest wide receiver to run roughshod over the Eagles' lackluster pass defense. This week, Henry goes up against a much more formidable defensive unit in Penn State, as the Nittany Lions have allowed their opponents to average just 90 yards passing per game, which is the second-best mark in the country. Henry is RotoBaller's WR38 and is projected to score 11 fantasy points in Week 4.--Alex BraskySource: RotoBaller

RotoBaller's top-ranked wide receiver entering Week 4 is none other than Rutgers wide receiver KJ Duff. Duff has performed exceptionally well for the Scarlet Knights this season, finishing his first two games of the year with a combined 333 yards receiving and five touchdowns before following that up with a seven-reception, 86-yard performance that included a touchdown against USC last week. Duff and Rutgers will go up against an inferior team in Howard in Week 4, when Duff is projected to score 30.6 fantasy points against the Bison pass defense, which allowed Indiana wide receiver Charlie Becker to find the end zone three times during a blowout Hoosiers win this past Saturday.--Alex BraskySource: RotoBaller

In Week 4, Dixon and Illinois face off with one of the top teams in the Big Ten, Ohio State, which has allowed just 126 yards passing through its first three games, the 10th-fewest in the country. Despite a tough matchup, Dixon is RotoBaller's WR5 and is projected to score 18.5 fantasy points against the Buckeyes this week.--Alex BraskySource: RotoBaller

Quarterback Trinidad Chambliss helped Ole Miss power past rival LSU last week, finishing the win with 363 yards passing and three total touchdowns (two passing, one rushing) along with an interception. Entering a Week 4 matchup with unbeaten Florida, Chambliss is RotoBaller's QB9 and is projected to score 25.7 fantasy points against the Gators. Through three games, Florida's pass defense has displayed vulnerability, as it has allowed 231.7 yards passing per game. This past week, Auburn quarterback Byrum Brown recorded 271 yards passing and 65 yards rushing along with four touchdowns. Chambliss has thrown for 336 yards or more in two of three matchups this season and has a great opportunity for another big game this weekend.--Alex BraskySource: RotoBaller
