Kenyon Sadiq Questionable Against Bears
New York Jets tight end Kenyon Sadiq (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears. Sadiq was limited Wednesday and Thursday after his breakout performance in Week 3, when he caught seven of eight targets for 105 yards and a touchdown against Detroit. That brought him to 12 receptions for 143 yards through his first three NFL games. There should still be plenty available to him if he plays. Tight end Mason Taylor and wide receiver Adonai Mitchell have already been ruled out, leaving the Jets short on pass catchers once again. RotoBaller has Sadiq at TE9 for Week 4 after last week's jump in usage. His questionable tag makes it worth having another tight end available Sunday morning, but Sadiq belongs in fantasy lineups if he gets the green light against Chicago.

Nico Collins Off the Injury Report, Good to Go for Week 4
Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (hamstring) is off the injury report and will play in his team's Week 4 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys, per DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN. Collins has missed Houston's last two games with a hamstring injury, but he practiced in full on Friday and is set to return against Dallas. The 27-year-old played well in Week 1 against the Buffalo Bills, recording seven catches for 75 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. Collins was also very productive when healthy in 2025, hauling in 71 receptions for 1,117 yards and six touchdowns on 120 targets across 15 games. Now that he's active, Collins profiles as the clear number one option in the Houston passing game and should be considered a must-start wide receiver for fantasy managers in a favorable matchup against Dallas.

Ladd McConkey Back on Practice Field Friday
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Ladd McConkey (foot) was back on the practice field Friday after sitting out Thursday, but he wasn't doing much during the portion open to reporters. Kris Rhim of ESPN noted that McConkey did not run routes or catch passes with the other Chargers receivers and instead stood off to the side watching. His presence is still a step forward after Thursday's absence, though it doesn't tell us much yet about whether he'll be ready for Sunday's game against Seattle. McConkey was limited Wednesday before being downgraded to a non-participant Thursday. He has caught 12 of 15 targets for 183 yards and one touchdown through three games, including four receptions for 66 yards last week against Buffalo. RotoBaller currently has him at WR32 for Week 4. His official Friday participation level and final game designation will carry much more weight than simply being back on the field.

Ja'Marr Chase Will Continue Strong Play Against Jacksonville
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase is coming off a strong performance in last week's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Chase caught nine passes for 98 yards and a touchdown in Week 3. The superstar receiver will look to continue his strong play at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars this weekend. Chase was the only pass catcher on the team to earn double-digit targets in last week's game with 57 total points scored and the game script may be more of the same this week. This matchup with the Jaguars is tied for the week's highest over/under, set at 51.5 points as of Friday. The Jaguars defense has been one of the strongest units to begin the season, but Chase is one of the best players in the league regardless of position so he will likely find a way to succeed. Chase is ranked WR2 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a must-start player regardless of league size or format. Fantasy managers should never take Chase out of their starting lineups until he's listed out or he's on bye

Drake Maye Has No Injury Designation for Week 4
New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye (right shoulder) will not carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Buffalo Bills. Maye stayed on the injury report all week, but he was a full participant in every practice and said Wednesday that the shoulder hasn't bothered him. That should put the availability question to rest. His fantasy outlook is less comfortable. Maye has thrown for 585 yards, one touchdown and six interceptions through three games, including two picks in last week's loss to Jacksonville. He has helped himself on the ground with 82 rushing yards on 15 attempts, but the passing mistakes have made him difficult to trust in one-quarterback leagues. RotoBaller has Maye at QB18 for Week 4. The shoulder shouldn't be the reason fantasy managers sit him against Buffalo, but his rough start still leaves him better suited for Superflex formats or as a QB2.

Aaron Donald Ruled Out Against Eagles
Los Angeles Rams defensive end Aaron Donald (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Donald didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday after Sean McVay said he was dealing with a sore back, and Nate Atkins reported Friday that the 35-year-old will not play. Donald came out of retirement this season and made his debut in Week 2 after sitting out the opener. He has four tackles and one tackle for loss in two games, without a sack. The Rams are already without Myles Garrett, who is on injured reserve following knee surgery, so their front will be missing two of its biggest names in Philadelphia. Donald's absence gives the Eagles one less interior problem to account for, which is a small boost for Jalen Hurts, Saquon Barkley and the rest of the offense.

Joe Burrow Ready For High-Scoring Matchup On Sunday
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will take on the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday in Week 4. Burrow completed 28 of his 37 pass attempts (76%) for 286 yards and three touchdowns in the 27-30 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Despite putting up his best fantasy performance of the season, Burrow and the Bengals walked away with their first loss of the year last week. Cincinnati may have a difficult time getting back in the win column this week at home against the Jaguars. The Jacksonville defense has held opposing offenses to 10 points or fewer in two of their three games this season while racking up eight sacks and four interceptions. The Jaguars offense has also been potent to start the year, scoring about 27 points per game through three games. Burrow and the high-powered Bengals offense will have their hands full in this matchup, but should still be able to put up points in what could turn into a high-scoring game. This game is tied for the week's highest over/under, set at 51.5 points as of Friday. Even with a difficult matchup, Burrow is ranked QB5 in our RotoBaller Week 4 rankings. Fantasy managers should be excited for the potential of this game turning into a back-and-forth affair.

James Conner Progressing Without Return Timeline
Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (foot) is progressing, but the team still isn't putting a date on his return. Head coach Mike LaFleur said Conner is doing well and reiterated that Arizona wants him back when he can perform at his normal level, not simply when he's able to get through a practice. Conner opened the season on injured reserve while continuing his recovery from the right foot injury that ended his 2025 season in Week 3. He can become eligible to practice next week after serving the required four-game absence, though the Cardinals have not said they will immediately open his 21-day window. That matters with Jeremiyah Love emerging as Arizona's lead back and Tyler Allgeier still involved. Conner is coming off back-to-back 1,000-yard rushing seasons in 2023 and 2024, but fantasy managers should treat him as a deeper-league IR stash until there is a clearer return date and role.

D'Andre Swift Has No Injury Designation for Week 4
Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (knee) is off the final injury report after a brief scare Thursday. Swift was added to the report with the knee issue and did not practice, but Courtney Cronin of ESPN reported that he returned as a full participant Friday and has no game designation for Sunday's matchup with the New York Jets. Swift is coming off 20 carries for 84 yards in Monday night's win over Philadelphia, and he also caught two passes for four yards. He has 253 rushing yards and three touchdowns through three games. Kyle Monangai has stayed involved behind him, but Swift has led Chicago in carries every week so far. RotoBaller ranks him as RB15 for Week 4. Friday's full practice puts Swift back on track to handle his usual role Sunday.

Kenny Gainwell is Risky Flex Option
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Kenny Gainwell hasn't experienced much success in his new offense. Through three games, Gainwell has carried the ball 10 times for 21 yards, while hauling in six receptions for 22 yards through the air. Bucs' offensive coordinator Zac Robinson has stated that they want to get Gainwell more involved. It remains to be seen how Gainwell will perform with backup quarterback Jalon Daniels under center. Gainwell could factor more into the gameplan with Daniels under center and the team likely doing more short routes and screens. The 27-year-old should be viewed as a low-end flex option for the upcoming Week 4 matchup against the Green Bay Packers.

Kansas City Chiefs Defense At Full Strength Heading Into Vegas
The Kansas City Chiefs defense will face the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 4. The Chiefs defense helmed by Steve Spagnuolo has been mostly strong, outside of the 30 points given up to the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2. The Kansas City unit has come away with one interception in every game this season and will look to extend that streak against Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins. The Raiders have put up at least 26 points in every game this season, making this a difficult matchup for the Chiefs. L'Jarius Sneed was listed on the injury report with a knee injury this week, but logged limited practices before a full practice on Friday. With the removal of Sneed from the injury report, the entire Chiefs defense should be at full strength to take on a division rival. The Chiefs defense is ranked ninth in our RotoBaller Week 4 rankings, making it a top-10 option at the position this week.

DJ Moore Off Injury Report Ahead of Week 4
Buffalo Bills wide receiver DJ Moore (shoulder) is off the injury report and will not carry a game designation into Sunday's matchup with New England. Moore was limited Wednesday and Thursday in a non-contact jersey, so this is a meaningful step after another week of managing the shoulder. The injury knocked him out late in the second quarter against Detroit in Week 2, but it didn't keep his role down when he returned against the Chargers. Moore saw 10 targets in that game, catching six for 67 yards. He has 11 receptions for 167 yards and a touchdown through three games, with Week 2 cutting one outing short. RotoBaller lists him at WR22 for Week 4. There is still some risk that the shoulder gets aggravated again, but Buffalo's final designation gives fantasy managers no reason to expect him to sit Sunday.

Harrison Butker Ready To Face Raiders
Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Las Vegas Raiders on the road in Week 4. Butker has now missed field goals in back-to-back games, but has not missed an extra-point attempt all season. The Chiefs will have their work cut out for them against a tough Raiders defense, so Butker should play a vital role in the matchup. Butker is ranked K5 in our RotoBaller Week 4 rankings, making him one of the best options to start at the position this week. The Chiefs kicker should be depended upon throughout the game and fantasy managers should feel confident with him in their lineups, despite his recent struggles.

Tyquan Thornton Could Be A Valuable Deep Threat Option Against Vegas
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyquan Thornton will face the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 4. Thornton has been the de facto deep threat option for quarterback Patrick Mahomes this season and his skill set may be necessary against a divisional opponent this week. Thornton recently caught two passes for 22 yards in the 24-10 win over the Miami Dolphins, but flashed more upside in the previous week with a closer game. In a 33-30 overtime win against the Indianapolis Colts, Thornton had four catches for 86 yards with a long catch of 45 yards in the contest. The Raiders defense has been stingy to start the season, so a big play or two may be necessary to take the top off the defense. Thornton is ranked WR70 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a desperate flex option. Fantasy managers starting Thornton this week will need to hope for a deep catch or a score to salvage his day.

Xavier Worthy More Of A Dart Throw In Week 4
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy will face the Las Vegas Raiders on the road in Week 4. Worthy's performance in the 24-10 victory over the Miami Dolphins last week raised more concerns than optimism for his future performances. Worthy reeled in two catches for 20 yards on two targets in the contest. Despite the easy matchup, the third-year wideout finished with fewer yards and targets than Noah Gray in Week 3. Worthy will now have to face a tough Raiders defense in a matchup of two undefeated AFC West teams. Worthy will be involved in this week's matchup, but just how involved he will be is anyone's guess. Worthy is ranked WR60 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a deep league flex option. Fantasy managers suffering from injuries may have to throw Worthy into lineups, but in most cases, there should be better options available.

Jalon Daniels is Desperation Deep League Play
Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Jalon Daniels will make his first career start against the Green Bay Packers in Week 4. Daniels will likely be under center for a few weeks with Baker Mayfield (thumb) out for at least three weeks. Daniels won the backup gig in camp, but he went undrafted out of Kansas. He has a decent arm and scrambling upside, but it's probably not enough to contribute legitimate fantasy value. Mayfield was struggling to find success, so it's unlikely that Daniels would be any better. He has a decent matchup against the Packers defense, but Daniels shouldn't be viewed as anything more than a desperation deep league play for Week 4.

Emmett Johnson To Maintain RB2 Role In Las Vegas
Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Emmett Johnson will face the Las Vegas Raiders on the road in Week 4. The 22-year-old has been electrifying in his limited touches behind starter Kenneth Walker, placing among the league's best in forced missed tackles per attempt. Despite not catching a single pass in last week's contest, Johnson has been particularly efficient as a pass catcher out of the backfield. The rookie will now get to face the tough Raiders defense in an AFC West matchup this Sunday. Despite his success, Johnson's fantasy value is ultimately tied to the health of Walker. As long as Walker remains healthy, Johnson will remain in a secondary role. Johnson will look to make the most of his touches against a tough Raiders defense. The Raiders have been a turnover machine in the first three weeks, racking up four interceptions and five recovered fumbles, which is a testament to the strength and aggressiveness of the unit. Johnson is ranked RB43 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a deep league flex option for those struggling with running back injuries this week.

Rashee Rice Removed From Injury Report, Ready To Face Tough Divisional Opponent
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice was listed on this week's injury report with the same knee injury he has been rehabbing all offseason, so nothing new to report on that front. He practiced fully in every practice session this week and is no longer listed on the report heading into the weekend. Rice is coming off his best game of the season in last week's 24-10 victory over the Miami Dolphins. Rice caught seven passes for 88 yards, leading the team in catches, yards, and targets by a large margin. Perhaps the easy matchup against Miami was just what Rice needed to have a get-right game. This week's matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders may not be so easy. The Raiders defense looks like one of the most improved units year over year, holding opposing offenses to low scoring outputs in two of three games this season. Rice will have to compete with tight end Travis Kelce for valuable targets while contending with the Las Vegas defensive backs. Rice is ranked WR17 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a fine WR2 in most leagues.

Travis Kelce Should Be Relied Upon In Vegas
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will travel to Las Vegas to take on the Raiders in Week 4. Kelce appears to have found the fountain of youth because he's turned back the clock to start the 2026 season. The veteran tight end has looked explosive in open space and has now scored in back-to-back games. Kelce will look to continue his hot streak as the Chiefs face a tough Raiders defense. The Raiders will have the advantage of playing at home, but Kelce and the Chiefs are still road favorites. Kelce may not earn 10+ targets every week anymore, but he's still Patrick Mahomes' most trusted target when the field shrinks, giving him a good chance to score every week. Kelce is ranked TE5 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a solid TE1 this week. Fantasy managers should continue starting Kelce every week until he shows signs of regression.

Ray Davis Questionable With Hamstring Injury
Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. Davis wasn't on the injury report Wednesday, then popped up Thursday with the hamstring issue despite practicing in full. He has barely been involved in Buffalo's offense through three games, carrying the ball once for three yards. Davis also played just five offensive snaps against the Chargers last week. Ty Johnson returned for that game and immediately saw more work, logging 15 snaps behind James Cook. That makes Davis' status more important for Buffalo's depth than for fantasy lineups at the moment. If he can't go Sunday, Johnson would be the likeliest back to pick up the available reserve snaps behind Cook.

Kenneth Walker Poised To Bounce Back Against Raiders
Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker had a decent fantasy performance in the 24-10 victory over the Miami Dolphins last week, but it was a down week by his lofty standards. After racking up over 175 scrimmage yards in each of the first two games, Walker finished Week 3 with just 70 rushing yards and three receiving yards. He was able to produce a good fantasy performance by scoring two touchdowns against Miami. Walker will have the opportunity to eclipse 100 rushing yards this week as the team travels to Las Vegas to face the Raiders. The Raiders defense has been a tough matchup for opposing offenses to begin the year, but the Chiefs are among the best offenses in the league. Walker has been one of the most proficient tackle-breakers this season, so he should be able to find success where others have not. The Chiefs also involve Walker as a pass catcher to create explosive plays in the screen game. Walker has multiple avenues to succeed and a high probability of finding the end zone any given week. Walker is ranked RB3 in our RotoBaller Week 4 PPR rankings, making him a top-end RB1 for fantasy.
