Eli Manning's Arrow Pointing Up For Week 4

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning heads into Week 4 of the 2018 season with 800 passing yards, three touchdowns and one interception. Manning and the Giants offense got off to a bumpy start but slowly began to click last week against the Texans. Manning and Co. now will go up against a Saints defense […]

Drew Brees Has Solid Matchup Against Giants

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees is off to a fantastic start this season, passing for 1,078 yards with eight passing touchdowns and two rushing touchdowns in three games. The 39-year-old is still an elite force in fantasy and will go up against a Giants defense in Week 4 that has allowed 15th most fantasy […]

Nick Mullens Promoted From Practice Squad

The San Francisco 49ers promoted quarterback Nick Mullens from the practice squad on Wednesday. The move was expected after the Niners placed Jimmy Garoppolo (knee) on injured reserve. Mullens is an undrafted second-year player out of Southern Miss who passed for almost 12,000 yards in four collegiate years. His next NFL snap will be his […]

Dallas Goedert Could Be an Interesting Week 4 Option

Philadelphia Eagles rookie tight end Dallas Goedert could be an interesting fantasy option in Week 4. As long as wide receiver Alshon Jeffery (shoulder) remains out, Goedert could be the third option in the passing game behind wide receiver Nelson Agholor and fellow tight end Zach Ertz. Goedert saw seven targets last week and may […]

Zach Ertz Should Have Another Strong Game in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz should be looking at another strong performance in Week 4 against the Tennessee Titans. Ertz hasn't scored a touchdown yet this season, but he's still ended up as a TE1 every week. He also leads all tight ends in targets with 33. While Nick Foles certainly zeroed in on […]

Nelson Agholor a Solid WR3 Option for Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Nelson Agholor is a solid WR3 option in a Week 4 matchup against the Tennessee Titans. Only 25 percent of Agholor's catches have gone for double-digit yardage. While that's easily the lowest rate in the league, it should change now that he has Carson Wentz throwing to him for a second […]

Wendell Smallwood Should Not Start in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles running back Wendell Smallwood could have more of a legitimate role on offense after a strong Week 3 performance, but he won't be on the field enough to develop a fantasy-relevant role. The Tennessee Titans feature a defense that has allowed the eighth-fewest yards to opposing running backs, and the Eagles backfield could […]

Julio Jones Not Practicing Wednesday

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones (calf) was not seen at practice on Wednesday. Jones missed several practices last week as a precaution but still played in the Week 3 win over the Panthers. The veteran wideout will often be rested during the practice week, as he often battles through nagging injuries but still plays. […]

Mike Nugent Put On IR

The Oakland Raiders placed kicker Mike Nugent (hip) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday. He'll be out for at least the next eight weeks of the season. In his place, Oakland signed undrafted free-agent kicker Matt McCrane to handle the kicking duties moving forward. Oakland's kicking situation needs to be avoided by fantasy owners.

Corey Clement Not a Great Week 4 Option

Philadelphia Eagles running back Corey Clement is not a recommended option for a Week 4 contest against the Tennessee Titans. With Jay Ajayi (back) expected back on the field and Wendell Smallwood performing well last week, this may end up as a four-man backfield. They'll be taking on a Titans defense that has allowed the […]

Jay Ajayi Not the Best Option in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jay Ajayi (back) is expected to return to the field for a Week 4 matchup against the Tennessee Titans, but he won't be a recommended fantasy starter. Likely to play limited snaps because of his injury, Ajayi is too risky to trust as anything more than a low-floor FLEX option this […]

Larry Fitzgerald Limited Wednesday

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald (hamstring) was doing individual drills without his helmet in practice on Wednesday. The Cardinals continue to limit the veteran in practice, but he should be able to play in Week 4 against the Seahawks. Fitz had a disappointing two catches on two targets for just nine yards in Week […]

Jesse James Hard To Trust In Week 4

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Jesse James was a hot waiver add last week after he turned in a career game in Week 2, catching five passes for 138 yards and a score. He was unable to replicate his success in Week 3, however, catching just one pass for seven yards. With Vance McDonald fully healthy […]

Carson Wentz Tough to Start in Week 4

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz is tough to trust in Week 4 against the Tennessee Titans. Wentz returned to the field last week and ended up as the QB22 for Week 3. With the Eagles offense still somewhat in disarray mostly due to injuries, it's hard to trust Wentz as a QB1. He'll most likely […]

Vance McDonald Looks To Build Upon Week 3 Breakout

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Vance McDonald broke out in a big way in Week 3, picking up 112 receiving yards and a touchdown on Monday night. The veteran tight end will look to build upon that success in Week 4 when the Baltimore Ravens come to town. McDonald has moved ahead of Jesse James as […]

Geoff Swaim's Decent Week 3 Unlikely to Repeat in Week 4

Dallas Cowboys tight end Geoff Swaim had a decent performance in Week 3, but it isn't enough to propel him into the conversation for Week 4. Swaim was targeted seven times last week, but the Dallas offense overall is struggling outside of the running game with Ezekiel Elliott. Swaim could come up with a handful […]

Tyrod Taylor Still Not Practicing

Cleveland Browns quarterback Tyrod Taylor (concussion) was not back at practice on Wednesday. If he's not cleared in time for Week 4 against the Raiders, the Browns will go with Drew Stanton as the backup to rookie Baker Mayfield. Taylor has lost the starting job to the exciting Mayfield after the rookie led a second-half […]

Cole Beasley Tough to Trust in Week 4

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Cole Beasley shouldn't be trusted in any fantasy lineups for Week 4. He's working as the WR1 for the Cowboys, but that says a whole lot more about the Dallas offense than it does about Beasley. In three games, he's hauled in 12 passes for 132 yards. He drew five targets […]

Terrance Williams Shouldn't Be on Fantasy Rosters

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Terrance Williams has no place on a fantasy roster at this point. Through three games, Williams has made two catches for 18 yards. He wasn't even targeted in Week 3. While he may indeed play a vital role on the field blocking for Ezekiel "The Dallas Offense" Elliott, Williams hasn't done […]

Michael Gallup Cannot Be Started in Week 4

Dallas Cowboys rookie wide receiver Michael Gallup cannot be placed in any starting lineups for a Week 4 matchup against the Detroit Lions. Gallup has come up with just three catches for 31 yards this season and no Dallas receiver has even been targeted more than five times in a game yet. The entire Dallas […]

Allen Hurns Not an Option in Week 4

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Allen Hurns is not a fantasy option for a Week 4 matchup against the Detroit Lions. Hurns has totaled four catches for 51 yards this season, and no Dallas wide receiver has been targeted more than five times in a game this season. The entire Dallas offense rests on Ezekiel Elliott's […]

Jimmy Graham Not At Practice Wednesday

Green Bay Packers tight end Jimmy Graham (undisclosed) did not practice on Wednesday due to an undisclosed injury. It's an ominous sign, but we'd like to get more information on his status before jumping to conclusions. While Graham has still yet to find the end zone in his first season with Green Bay, he does […]

Ezekiel Elliott Should Be the Cowboys Offense Again in Week 4

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott should play the role of the entire Dallas offense again in Week 4. Elliott has 98.3 percent of the Cowboys backfield touches, easily the highest rate in the NFL. He has been quite effective on the ground and gets a good matchup against a Lions defense that has allowed […]

A.J. Green, Joe Mixon Work Off To The Side

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (groin) and running back Joe Mixon (knee) were both off to the side working with the rehab group in practice on Wednesday. The team is optimistic that Green will suit up in Week 4 in an attackable matchup against a beat up Falcons secondary. If he plays, he'll be […]

Dak Prescott Still Not a Fantasy Option in Week 4

Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott won't be a fantasy option in Week 4. In Prescott's last 13 games, he's reached 200 yards just three times and thrown for more than one touchdown in just 10 of those games. A league-average quarterback this season is making 17.5 percent of his throws at least 15 yards downfield. […]

No Practice For Ezekiel Ansah Wednesday

Detroit Lions defensive end Ezekiel Ansah (shoulder) did not practice on Wednesday. Ansah has missed the team's last two games, and he isn't off to a good start this week. The oft-injured defensive lineman is Detroit's main source for a pass rush, so their defense could be in trouble if he continues to sit out. […]

Trey Flowers, Patrick Chung Return To Practice

New England Patriots defensive end Trey Flowers (concussion) and safety Patrick Chung (concussion) both returned to practice on Wednesday. It's a great sign for their availability in Week 4 against the Dolphins after they both were inactive in the Sunday night loss to the Lions where their absences were clearly felt. If both defenders were […]

Hayden Hurst Back On Practice Field

Baltimore Ravens rookie tight end Hayden Hurst (foot), who hasn't played yet this year after having foot surgery last month, returned to practice on Wednesday. It doesn't mean that Hurst will make his NFL debut in Week 4 against the Steelers, but it's progress nonetheless. Fellow rookie Mark Andrews has stood out as the most […]

LeSean McCoy To Be Limited

Buffalo Bills running back LeSean McCoy (ribs) will be limited in practice on Wednesday, according to head coach Sean McDermott. McCoy sat out of the Week 3 win against the Vikings, and he could be questionable yet again in Week 4 against the Packers. McCoy hasn't done much for his fantasy owners behind a bad […]

Latavius Murray Should Be Avoided In Week 4

Minnesota Vikings running back Latavius Murray burned a vast amount of fantasy owners in Week 3 after his one-yard clunker against the Buffalo Bills. In Week 4, he still might be the lead back if Dalvin Cook (hamstring) does not play, but he has a far tougher matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. The Rams […]
