Is Hayden Hurst A Good Fantasy Football Pickup for Week 5? Waiver Wire Outlook

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Hayden Hurst had fantasy sleeper status heading into the 2022 season, but after drawing 21 targets through four weeks, he's becoming a trendy tight end waiver add. The tight end position is always a tricky one to navigate and the options are once again scarce in 2022. Fantasy managers without big-name […]

Top Fantasy Football Injuries From Week 4: Jonathan Taylor, Javonte Williams, Cordarrelle Patterson, Tom Brady, Treylon Burks, Jahan Dotson

The 2022 NFL season is now a month old (pending Monday Night Football), so as always, key injuries for fantasy football are continuing to pile up. Our fantasy football injuries report highlights several players with fantasy significance and their latest status heading into Week 5 as of Monday, October 3rd, 2022. This article highlight news […]

Gus Edwards Designated To Return Off PUP

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards (knee) will begin practice as soon as he's been designated to return off the NFL's Physically Unable to Perform list. Edwards tore his ACL around the same time J.K. Dobbins did but has yet to return to game action this season. When Edwards returns, he'll be on the fantasy […]

Jahan Dotson To Miss 1-2 Weeks

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson (hamstring) left his Week 4 game against the Dallas Cowboys early and is expected to miss one to two weeks. A favorable matchup for wide receivers (Tennessee Titans) is ahead for the Commanders in Week 5, so Terry McLaurin and Curtis Samuel should see more targets. Logan Thomas and […]

Treylon Burks Could Go On Injured Reserve

Tennessee Titans rookie wide receiver Treylon Burks (toe) could go on Injured Reserve after being diagnosed with turf toe. Burks left the game late against the Indianapolis Colts and did not return. However, Burks isn't expected to miss the season and won't need surgery, so he could have sneaky value later in fantasy football in […]

Tua Tagovailoa To Miss Week 5

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) has already been ruled out for Week 5 against the New York Jets. However, there's no clear timetable on how long he could be out moving forward. Veteran Teddy Bridgewater will start in his place as long as he's out and is a decent streaming option in one of […]

Cordarrelle Patterson To Go On Injured Reserve

Atlanta Falcons running back Cordarrelle Patterson (knee) is headed to Injured Reserve but is expected to return at some point this season. His placement on IR means he'll be out for at least four weeks. Rookie Tyler Allgeier and Caleb Huntley combined for 140 rushing yards and a touchdown against the Browns and will be […]

Lions Defense Allows 555 Yards, 48 Points

The Detroit Lions defense was expected to be one of the worst units in the league, and so far this season they are the front-runner for that title in fantasy football. No matter how good the matchup looks, Detroit can't be considered in fantasy after allowing 555 yards and 48 points to quarterback Geno Smith […]

Dominik Eberle Misses Two Extra Points

Detroit Lions kicker Dominik Eberle stepped up for an injured Austin Seibert (groin) and missed two extra points in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks. Eberle will likely be replaced even if Seibert misses Week 5, so any fantasy managers that pivoted to him as a last-second streamer can drop him. When Seibert returns, he's […]

T.J. Hockenson Goes Off In Week 4

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson finally delivered for fantasy managers, catching eight of his 12 targets for 179 yards and two touchdowns in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks, That is elite fantasy production, especially out of the tight end slot. Despite Hockenson having up-and-down weeks, his ceiling remains as high as just about […]

Josh Reynolds Catches Touchdown In Loss

Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds caught seven-of-eight targets for 81 yards and a touchdown in the shootout against the Seattle Seahawks. Reynolds should remain a hot fantasy option if Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) and/or D.J. Chark (ankle) miss more games in one of the NFL's top offenses. Despite a daunting matchup with New England […]

Craig Reynolds Handles Three Touches In Loss

Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds carried sleeper status into Week 4 in the absence of D'Andre Swift (ankle) but after a three-touch, 42-yard day, he can't be trusted in fantasy lineups. For now, Jamaal Williams has a stranglehold on the touches as the Lions' workhorse. Reynolds or Justin Jackson might have decent fantasy performances […]

Jamaal Williams Scores Twice In Loss

Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams scored two touchdowns for the third time in four games this season. Williams is a solid flex play no matter what, but while D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) is out, he's a must-start option. James Conner finished as an RB1 last season thanks to a high number of TDs, and […]

Jared Goff Throws for 378 Yards, Four Touchdowns

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff exploded for 378 yards and four passing touchdowns on 39 attempts in the loss to the Seattle Seahawks. He'll finish as a high-end QB1 for Week 4, continuing his stellar fantasy season. The ceiling of the Lions' offense rivals any offensive attack in the league, especially since Detroit's defense is […]

Titans Defense Forces Three Turnovers

The Tennessee Titans defense gave up 365 total yards of offense, but it held the Colts to just 17 points and forced three turnovers. That said, the Titans' D/ST was a viable fantasy option for managers who assumed Matt Ryan would turn the ball over. Tennessee takes the road to take on Washington in Week […]

Randy Bullock Perfect On Kicks In Win

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock converted all three of his extra point attempts and nailed his lone field goal attempt in the win against the Indianapolis Colts. He provided a decent fantasy output for fantasy managers, but it was far from a boom week. With Tennessee's offense seemingly getting on track, Bullock is creeping up […]

Chigoziem Okonkwo Catches First Career Touchdown

Tennessee Titans tight end Chigoziem Okonkwo caught all three of his targets for 38 yards in the win against the Indianapolis Colts. The rookie tight end was a fourth-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, so the Titans will likely try to get him more involved after a solid Week 4 performance. The Titans' tight […]

Dontrell Hilliard Catches Four Passes In Win

Tennessee Titans running back Dontrell Hilliard caught all four of his targets for 18 yards in the win against the Indianapolis Colts. After two largely unproductive weeks, Hilliard is merely a deep league PPR flex play while Derrick Henry remains healthy. Hilliard will likely have solid weeks with a touchdown or two, but it'll be […]

Robert Woods Scores First Touchdown Of The Year

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Robert Woods caught all four of his targets for 30 yards and his first touchdown of the season in the win against the Indianapolis Colts. Tennessee only attempted 21 passes as the running game was clicking, so Woods wasn't able to get enough volume to deliver huge numbers. Ultimately, Tennessee wants […]

Derrick Henry Totals 147 Yards In Win

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry handled 25 total touches and racked up 147 yards and a touchdown in the win against the Indianapolis Colts. This marks the second straight week Henry has surpassed 140 yards and scored a touchdown, so perhaps he's back as a high-end RB1 moving forward. He's also caught eight passes […]

Ryan Tannehill Throws Two Touchdowns In Win

Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill completed 17 of his 21 passing attempts for 137 yards and two touchdowns. His fantasy point output wasn't great, but the two touchdowns provided just enough to be a viable QB2. The Titans' offense seems to be getting in rhythm more each week, so Tannehill's value is as a decent […]

Week 4 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2022 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

We're through three weeks of the NFL season, but we'll never get to a place where we can ignore the streamer game at the kicker position in fantasy football. Even though we have three games of data for each team, kicker projections are very elastic week-to-week and it's too early to draw definitive conclusions.  Things […]

Is Keenan Allen Healthy or Injured? Will Allen Play in Week 4?

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen has been a fantasy stud throughout his 10-year NFL career, and his fantasy managers are anxious to get him back after he suffered a hamstring injury in Week 1. The Chargers offense hasn't been firing on all cylinders in his absence, so the latest news regarding his status […]

Fantasy Football Injury Reports for TEs: Week 4 Injury Updates for Dalton Schultz, T.J. Hockenson, Dawson Knox

Below you will find our updated fantasy football injuries report for tight ends in the days before Week 4 of the 2022 NFL season as of Friday, September 30. Notable tight end injuries include Dalton Schultz, T.J. Hockenson, and Dawson Knox. Being up-to-date on NFL injury news can give you an edge over your league […]

Is Jameis Winston Injured Or Playing? Should I Start Andy Dalton in Week 4 Fantasy Football?

New Orleans Saints quarterback Jameis Winston has been dealing with back injuries since the Week 1 win against the Atlanta Falcons, and his Week 4 status against the Minnesota Vikings in London is in question. Winston has often been a boom-0r-bust fantasy quarterback thanks to his risk-taking, gun-slinging playstyle, so his absence would eliminate a […]

Lions Defense A Weak Option Against Seattle

The Detroit Lions defense draws a favorable matchup against quarterback Geno Smith and the Seattle Seahawks in Week 4, but Detroit's D/special teams isn't strong enough to be on the fantasy radar. With all D/STs available before bye weeks begin, there are plenty of better options. Smith has proven capable of at least being a […]

Craig Reynolds Has Deep-League Flex Appeal

Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds looks to be the team's RB2 behind Jamaal Williams if D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) is out in Week 4. Swift is more than likely going to be inactive, so Reynolds should enter the fantasy radar, at least in deep leagues. Reynolds had handled 11 touches this season as the […]

Jamaal Williams Has RB2 Floor In Week 4

Detroit Lions running back Jamaal Williams is expected to handle a hefty workload if D'Andre Swift (shoulder, ankle) is out, which is likely going to be the case. The Seahawks have allowed the 10th-most fantasy points to running backs thus far, and Williams already has two multiple-touchdown weeks on his 2022 resume. A 20-plus touch […]

Jared Goff A Boom-Or-Bust QB

Detroit Lions quarterback Jared Goff is 11th among quarterbacks in total fantasy points through three weeks, but he'll likely be without Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (ankle, shoulder) in Week 4. Josh Reynolds and T.J. Hockenson are also "questionable" but are trending toward playing. St. Brown and Swift are arguably the two best […]

Randy Bullock Not A Strong Option In Week 4

Tennessee Titans kicker Randy Bullock ranks just 25th in total fantasy points among kickers through three weeks, so he's far from an enticing option in Week 4. Kickers are always tough to predict, but nothing points towards a breakout game against the Indianapolis Colts. The game is indoors, which can help kickers, but it sets […]
