Kyle Monangai's Fantasy Value Jumps After Week 4 Breakout
Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai just made this backfield much more interesting for fantasy managers. Monangai entered Sunday with exactly 10 carries in each of Chicago's first three games, then handled 30 of them for 146 yards and two touchdowns in the 23-12 win over the Jets. He scored from one yard out in the first quarter and found the end zone again from five yards in the third. The second score came after D'Andre Swift lost a fumble on Chicago's previous possession, and the Bears continued to lean heavily on Monangai the rest of the afternoon. Swift still had 15 carries for 58 yards, so this does not automatically make Monangai the unquestioned lead back going forward. It does make the split much harder to predict. Monangai matched his carry total from the first three weeks in one game and made the most of it, giving his fantasy value a significant boost coming out of Week 4.

Emanuel Wilson Getting First-Team Reps in Warmups
Seattle Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson appears set to get the start Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. Corbin K. Smith reported that Wilson took the first running back reps during pregame warmups with Jadarian Price (chest) on injured reserve. Wilson has 32 carries for 109 yards through three games, with most of that production coming in a 21-carry, 92-yard performance against Arizona in Week 2. George Holani is also available and figures to see work, but Wilson getting the first reps before kickoff points to him opening the game atop the backfield.

Jadarian Price Not Expected to Miss Rest of Season
Seattle Seahawks running back Jadarian Price (chest) isn't expected to be sidelined for the remainder of his rookie season. General manager John Schneider told Steve Raible on Seattle Sports that the team doesn't "see it as a season-ending thing at all." Price still has some time to miss after landing on injured reserve Saturday. He aggravated the chest injury during Wednesday's practice after originally hurting it against Arizona in Week 2 and playing the following week. Price started each of Seattle's first three games, rushing 28 times for 119 yards while catching four passes for 21 yards. He will be required to miss at least four games before becoming eligible to return.

Eli Raridon Questionable to Return With Ankle Injury
New England Patriots tight end Eli Raridon (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills, according to Taylor Kyles. It's a second injury concern in as many weeks for the rookie, who missed Week 3 against Jacksonville with a thigh injury. Raridon was limited in all three practices leading into Sunday and was active after carrying a questionable designation. He entered the game with two catches for 32 yards and a touchdown through his first two NFL appearances.

Joe Mixon Hints at Return in Social Media Posts
Free-agent running back Joe Mixon (foot) posted a workout video to his Instagram Story this weekend showing himself going through drills as he works toward an NFL comeback. Mixon hasn't played since January 2025 after a foot injury wiped out his entire 2025 season, and Houston released him in March. The 30-year-old was productive the last time he played, rushing for 1,016 yards and 11 touchdowns in 14 regular-season games in 2024. There's now a team showing interest, too. Mixon is traveling to Seattle on Sunday and is expected to visit and work out for the Seahawks on Monday, according to reports. Seattle placed rookie Jadarian Price (chest) on injured reserve Saturday, while Zach Charbonnet (knee) is still working his way back from a torn ACL.

Mack Hollins Questionable to Return With Calf Injury
New England Patriots wide receiver Mack Hollins (calf) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills, according to Evan Lazar of Patriots.com. Hollins went down without contact on an incomplete pass during New England's first possession of the second half. He walked off the field before heading to the locker room. Hollins had three catches for 53 yards before leaving after posting six receptions for 87 yards against Jacksonville last week.

Ladd McConkey Active Against Seahawks
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey (foot) is active Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. There was some concern about his availability after McConkey missed Thursday's practice, though he was able to get back on the field in a limited fashion Friday. He was officially listed as questionable. McConkey has 12 catches for 183 yards and a touchdown through three games, but the targets haven't exactly been piling up lately. He saw three in Week 2 and five last week. RotoBaller has McConkey at WR32 for Week 4, which puts him more in the WR3 mix than among the receivers fantasy managers need to force into lineups.

Mike Evans Active Against Broncos
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs) is active for Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Evans was listed as questionable after missing practice Wednesday and Thursday before returning in a limited capacity Friday. He suffered the injury during last week's win over the Arizona Cardinals, finishing with three catches on six targets for 34 yards and a touchdown before exiting. Evans enters Sunday with 12 receptions for 137 yards and two touchdowns through three games. RotoBaller has him at WR31 in its updated Week 4 PPR rankings, putting him in WR3 territory while he plays through the rib issue.

Lamar Jackson Questionable to Return With Ankle Injury
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 4 game against the Tennessee Titans, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Jackson suffered the injury late in the first half and did not return to the field when Baltimore opened the third quarter, with Tyler Huntley taking over at quarterback. Jackson had completed 15 of 20 passes for 222 yards and two touchdowns before exiting. He entered Sunday without an injury designation after dealing with a minor back issue earlier in the week, so the ankle is a new concern.

Ja'Marr Chase Ruled Out With Concussion
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (concussion) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Paul Dehner. Chase was injured in the second quarter after being brought down by his facemask, with his head hitting the turf on the play. He was able to walk off under his own power before going to the medical tent and later the locker room. Chase caught all three of his targets for 26 yards before leaving. He will now enter the league's concussion protocol, putting his status for Week 5 in question.

DJ Moore Downgraded to Doubtful With Shoulder Injury
Buffalo Bills wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) has been downgraded to doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. Moore left late in the second quarter and was initially listed as questionable after being evaluated for the shoulder injury. He caught one of two targets for 11 yards and added one carry for six yards before exiting. Moore was already on Buffalo's injury report with a shoulder issue throughout the week, though he entered Sunday without a game designation. The move from questionable to doubtful makes a return this afternoon unlikely.

He later went to the locker room and was initially listed as questionable to return. Barkley finishes with two carries for eight yards. Tank Bigsby was the first back onto the field after Barkley left, with Will Shipley also available behind him. Philadelphia has not provided any further information yet on the severity of Barkley's hamstring injury.

Jayden Daniels On Track to Return in Week 5
Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels (left elbow) will be a full participant in practice this week, head coach Dan Quinn said Sunday. Daniels was limited in all three practices last week before Washington ruled him out against the Indianapolis Colts. He has missed two straight games since dislocating his left elbow in Week 2 against Dallas. A full week of practice would put Daniels on track to return Sunday against the New York Giants, although he still needs to get through the week before Washington clears him to play. The timing could be important for the Commanders after Marcus Mariota aggravated his right MCL against Indianapolis and is expected to miss some time.

Jaylin Lane Has Serious Ankle Injury
Washington Commanders wide receiver and returner Jaylin Lane is dealing with a serious ankle injury, according to head coach Dan Quinn, as reported by JP Finlay of NBC4 Sports Washington. Lane was injured on a kickoff return early in the third quarter of a Week 4 loss to the Indianapolis Colts in London. He did not appear to be able to put any pressure on his left leg and had to be carted off of the field. Lane was quickly ruled out of the game and did not return. Lane did not record any receptions and had three kickoff returns for 80 yards (26.7 yards per return) against the Colts. He has tallied two receptions for 25 yards (12.5 yards per attempt) in 2026.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (hamstring) is questionable to return against the Los Angeles Rams due to a hamstring injury, according to the team.

Following the run, Barkley was spotted limping on the sideline and then went to the blue medical tent. Running back Tank Bigsby has entered the lineup in Barkley's absence. Will Shipley is also available in the backfield for the Eagles.

Joe Mixon Visiting Seahawks, Worth a Stash?
Free-agent running back Joe Mixon is visiting the Seattle Seahawks, according to Jay Glazer on FOX. Mixon has not played since 2024 after a foot injury wiped out his entire 2025 season, but he was still productive the last time he was on the field. He rushed for 1,016 yards and 11 touchdowns on 245 carries in 14 games for Houston while adding 36 catches for 309 yards and another score. Seattle has a reason to look for help. Rookie Jadarian Price (chest) was placed on injured reserve Saturday and must miss at least four games. Zach Charbonnet (knee) returned to practice this week but cannot be activated until Week 5 at the earliest as he works back from a torn ACL. Emanuel Wilson and George Holani are among the backs currently available. Mixon is only visiting at this point, so there is no guarantee he signs, but his past production and Seattle's short-term uncertainty make him a reasonable speculative stash in deeper fantasy leagues.

Marcus Mariota Expected to Miss Time After Aggravating MCL Injury
Washington Commanders quarterback Marcus Mariota (right knee) aggravated the MCL injury he first suffered during the preseason and is expected to miss some time, according to Ian Rapoport. Mariota will undergo additional testing after leaving Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts in the first quarter. He completed three of four passes for 46 yards and added a 35-yard run before going down. Rapoport also reported that there is hope Jayden Daniels (left elbow) can return in Week 5 against the New York Giants. Daniels was limited in all three practices this past week but was ruled out Friday, with Washington planning to reevaluate him after another week of work. If Daniels is not ready, rookie Athan Kaliakmanis would be next in line with Mariota now expected to miss time.

Mike Evans Will Play Through Fractured Ribs
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs) will play Sunday against the Denver Broncos despite dealing with fractured ribs, according to FOX Sports' Jay Glazer. Evans will wear protective covering over the injured area during the game. He did not practice Wednesday or Thursday before returning for a limited session Friday, and the 49ers listed him as questionable coming into the weekend. Evans has 12 catches for 137 yards and two touchdowns through three games. He'll give it a go against Denver, though how much the rib injury affects him once the game starts remains to be seen.
