Terrance Ferguson Placed on Injured Reserve
Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson (ankle) has been placed on injured reserve and will miss at least the next four weeks. After an ankle injury in Week 3's loss to the Denver Broncos, Ferguson couldn't practice this week, prompting the team to place him on IR. In three games, Ferguson caught seven of 12 targets for 63 yards and a touchdown, playing 54% of snaps and running 56% of routes before the injury. With the second-year tight end heading to IR, Colby Parkinson, Tyler Higbee, Davis Allen, and second-round pick Max Klare will each play a slightly larger role. Ferguson's next chance to return will be in Week 8, when the Rams host the Los Angeles Chargers, but his return timeline remains unclear.

Mike Evans Questionable for Week 4
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Mike Evans (ribs) is listed as questionable for Week 4 against the Denver Broncos. Evans suffered a rib injury in Week 3's 36-30 win over the Arizona Cardinals and did not return. He did not practice Wednesday or Thursday and worked on the side field Friday, with head coach Kyle Shanahan calling him a game-time decision. Evans spoke to the media Friday, describing the injury as "being stabbed in the chest," but added he's played through painful rib injuries before and has worked to put himself in position to do so again this Sunday. In his first three games with the 49ers, Evans has caught 12 of 16 targets for 137 yards and two touchdowns. However, with uncertainty about his status and a tough matchup against Pat Surtain and the Broncos, Evans is a risky WR3 in Week 4.

Cade Otton Remains on TE2 Radar for Week 4
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton is coming off his best performance of the season. Last week, Otton hauled in three of his six targets for 56 yards in the loss to the Minnesota Vikings. His value seemed to be on the rise, but it'll now take a hit with quarterback Baker Mayfield (thumb) heading to the sideline for at least the next three weeks. Undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels will be making his first career start against the Green Bay Packers in Week 4. Most of the offensive skilled players will take a hit with Daniels under center. Fantasy managers should keep Otton on the TE2 radar for this upcoming matchup.

Ted Hurst III is Too Risky To Start in Week 4
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Ted Hurst III caught his first career touchdown during last week's loss to the Minnesota Vikings. That was his only catch of the game, but it looks like Hurst is gaining more trust in the offensive scheme. He should have a starting role going forward with Jalen McMillan (knee) landing on the Injured Reserve earlier this week. The rookie should see more playing time, but that doesn't mean he'll be a startable fantasy option right now. Undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels will be taking over under center for at least the next three weeks. Hurst only saw three targets during last week's game. He's probably not worth starting in most formats, and at best, he'll be a touchdown-dependent option.

Chris Godwin Jr. Offers Low-End Flex Appeal
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin Jr. (ankle) has been cleared to play ahead of the Week 4 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. The veteran wideout is good to go, but his fantasy value remains shaky for this weekend. Undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels will be making his first career start on Sunday. The expectation is that most of the offensive-skilled players will take a hit with Daniels under center. Godwin wasn't a great option before Baker Mayfield (thumb) went down, but now he'll be a shaky flex option for this weekend.

Emeka Egbuka Falls into WR3 Range
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka has not lived up to expectations during the first three weeks of the season. It's unlikely to get better with Baker Mayfield (thumb) going down for at least three weeks. Now, the Bucs turn to undrafted rookie Jalon Daniels to lead this offensive unit. Fantasy managers should expect most of the offensive-skilled players to take a hit with Daniels under center. Egbuka saw a season-high nine targets last week, but we'll see if the Bucs continue throwing his way as frequently this weekend. Given the downgrade at QB, fantasy managers should consider Egbuka a WR3 for the upcoming matchup against the Green Bay Packers.

Las Vegas Raiders Defense a Risky Bet Against Tough Week 4 Opponent
The Las Vegas Raiders' defense has been surprisingly stout to start 2026, but will face an uphill battle against a hot Kansas City Chiefs offense in Week 4. Vegas ranks 10th in the NFL with just 316.7 total average yards allowed through Week 3. However, their first three opponents in 2026 also have a combined 1-8 record. Kansas City visits Sin City with a 3-0 record and the second-most total offensive yards per game (416.3). History isn't on the Raiders' side either, since the Chiefs starters haven't lost on the road to the Silver and Black since the team moved to Las Vegas in 2020. (Last season's 14-12 Raiders win at Allegiant Stadium was against Kansas City's second-stringers.) Fantasy managers are better off streaming a different defense in Week 4.

Braelon Allen Set to Lead Jets Backfield in Week 4
Three games into the 2026 season, New York Jets running back Braelon Allen has recorded 19 carries for 61 yards and a touchdown while hauling in four receptions for 11 yards on five targets. Allen's workload has been limited by the presence of star Jets running back Breece Hall (quad). However, Hall has been ruled out for New York's Week 4 matchup against the Chicago Bears due to a quad injury. As a result, Allen could be poised to play a workhorse role in the Jets' backfield on Sunday. The third-year back has shown off a three-down skill set in limited opportunities to this point in his career, and he has the size (235 lbs.) to be a weapon in the red zone. Allen also has a favorable matchup on paper against Chicago, whose defense currently ranks 30th in the NFL in yards per carry allowed (5.1). With Hall sidelined, Allen profiles as a low-end RB2 option for fantasy managers in Week 4.

Michael Mayer Unlikely to Move the Needle in Week 4
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Michael Mayer is still getting targeted by Kirk Cousins, but Brock Bowers' return will cap his production against a tough Kansas City Chiefs defense in Week 4. Mayer was still on the field for over 70% of passing plays in Week 3 and caught a touchdown, but had just three receptions for 32 yards. Even with wide receiver Jack Bech (forearm) out for at least four games, Klint Kubiak's air attack will run through Bowers against a Chiefs passing defense that is allowing just 178.3 yards per game. Unless Bowers is sidelined again, Mayer doesn't produce enough week to week to move the needle in redraft fantasy leagues.

Rebound Potential For Kyler Murray Against Dolphins
After a mostly lackluster first full game with the Minnesota Vikings, quarterback Kyler Murray faces an excellent matchup against the struggling Miami Dolphins on Sunday. The former Arizona Cardinal looked jittery and didn't provide much of an immediate upgrade to a Minnesota passing game that has thrown for fewer yards than any other team, but he'll step into friendlier circumstances against the Dolphins this week. Miami is 30th in the NFL in pressure percentage, still doesn't have a sack this season, and has allowed points on 50% of their opponents' possessions. Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle) is out again after missing the majority of last week's game, but the matchup is good enough that Murray is worth considering in most formats against the Dolphins. He's RotoBaller's QB13 for Week 4.

Tre Tucker Unlikely to Make a Big Impact in Week 4
Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker should get more involved in Week 4, but should fantasy managers play him against the Kansas City Chiefs? Tucker's target share could tick up since fellow receiver Jack Bech (forearm) is sidelined for at least four games. However, the return of All-Pro tight end Brock Bowers has already significantly cut into Tucker's opportunities, and he was held to just four receptions for 43 yards in Week 3. Additionally, the Chiefs' passing defense is allowing just 178.3 yards per game to start the season. Tucker's diminished usage is unlikely to tick up very much with Bech out, especially going up against a tough opponent. He may be a solid deep-league stash or flex option in other matchups, but Tucker is a sit candidate in redraft leagues in Week 4.

Prime Conditions For Aaron Jones Sr. Against Miami
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. is facing what is likely to be his most favorable fantasy circumstances of the year when the Miami Dolphins visit U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday. The veteran not only has complete control of the backfield while backfield mate Jordan Mason (thumb) is on injured reserve, but he's now facing the 32nd-ranked defense against half-PPR running backs. The Vikings have certainly struggled themselves on offense, ranking dead last in yards gained, but Jones figures to get the lion's share of work against one of the NFL's worst teams. As quarterback Kyler Murray acclimates to a new offense, any semblance of a passing game should benefit Jones. He's RotoBaller's No. 14 running back in Week 4, making him a high-quality RB2 in most formats.

Brock Bowers Needs to Keep Rolling in Week 4
Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers has returned just in time to help his team take on the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 4. The former first-round pick made his season debut in Week 3 and did not disappoint, catching 10 of 14 targets for 116 yards with one touchdown in Vegas' 35-27 win against the New Orleans Saints. The division rival Chiefs are a different story, with a defense ranking sixth in the league against the pass (178.3 yards and two passing TDs allowed). However, Bowers has fared well against Kansas City in his career, catching 15 of 19 targets for 198 yards and one touchdown over two meetings. He is back to starter status in fantasy this week against a tough defense.

Jadarian Price Ruled Out for Week 4 with Chest Injury
Seattle Seahawks running back Jadarian Price (chest) has been ruled out for his team's Week 4 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, per Gregg Bell of the Tacoma News Tribune. Price initially suffered a chest injury in Week 2. He played through the injury in Week 3, but lost a fumble and finished the game with five carries for 15 yards. Price began this past week as a limited practice participant, but was downgraded to non-participation on Thursday and will now be inactive on Sunday. It's not clear if Price re-aggravated the injury, or if the team simply came to the conclusion that he would be better off not trying to play through it. With Price sidelined, Seahawks running back Emanuel Wilson looks poised to be the team's lead back in Week 4.

Jordan Addison Becomes Vikings' Top Target Against Dolphins
Coming off his best game of the season, Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jordan Addison carries WR3/Flex potential into the team's Week 4 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. The former USC Trojan caught his first touchdown of the season and led the Vikings in receiving in a win last week at Tampa Bay, and now Minnesota approaches this week without star receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle). The Vikings' offense has looked bad, but Miami has bigger issues up and down the roster, and its defense has been no exception. The Dolphins have allowed points on half of their opponents' possessions, which is tied for last in the NFL, and they also rank in the bottom five in yards per play (29th), pressure percentage (30th), and sacks (32nd). Addison's solid performance last week, temporary status as the team's top receiver, and a lowly-ranked opponent give him lineup appeal. He's RotoBaller's WR29 for Week 4.

Ashton Jeanty a High-End RB2 in Week 4
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty will shoulder his toughest workload yet when the Silver and Black host the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 4. Despite still searching for his first rushing touchdown of the season, the second-year back ranks sixth in the NFL in carries (63) and 10th in rushing yards (206), and he adds 13 targets for 97 yards and two passing TDs. Jeanty is also carrying a massive workload, playing over 80% of offensive snaps through Week 3. The Chiefs have allowed fewer than 100 yards on the ground in three straight games, but Jeanty should still produce plenty given his versatile role. He is a high-end RB2 across fantasy formats in Week 4.

Kirk Cousins a Risky Play in Tough Week 4 Matchup
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Kirk Cousins has been a surprise success through three weeks, but will face his toughest test in Week 4 when the Kansas City Chiefs visit Sin City. The veteran signal-caller is tied for the most TD passes through Week 3 (nine), adding a 67.4% completion rate for 661 yards and just three interceptions. Though Cousins has an 8:1 TD:INT ratio against the Chiefs in his career, he is also 0-5 against them. Plus, Kansas City boasts a top-10 defense that is allowing just 178.3 passing yards per game. Cousins is still a solid waiver-wire add in two-quarterback fantasy leagues, but is a very high-risk play against this tough divisional opponent. Fantasy managers in standard formats should consider better matchups for their Sunday slates.

Breakout Time For Jauan Jennings In Week 4?
It has been a quiet beginning of the season for Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jauan Jennings, but he could have a new opening when the team plays host to the Miami Dolphins now that star Vikings receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle) has been ruled out. The veteran receiver played 80% of offensive snaps last week after Jefferson departed, but the bigger issue is that the Vikings' passing game has struggled immensely. Minnesota ranks last in the NFL in net yards per attempt, though they face a Dolphins defense that has allowed points on half of opponents' possessions. The matchup looks great, and Jennings should see an uptick in snaps, but the state of the Vikings' passing offense is likely too risky for most formats until quarterback Kyler Murray clicks with his new team. Jennings has a pathway to more involvement, but as RotoBaller's No. 63 receiver this week, he's likely best saved for deeper formats.

Carolina Panthers Defense Face Uphill Battle in Week 4
The Carolina Panthers defense is in for a rude awakening in Week 4 when it hosts a potent Detroit Lions offense on Sunday Night Football. Carolina is already allowing a league-high 193.3 rushing yards per game and six touchdowns on the ground this season. Now both nose tackles Lee Hunter (foot) and Cam Jackson (knee) are listed as questionable for Sunday, which will make it even harder to contain the Jahmyr Gibbs-led Lions ground game. The Panthers have been good at containing the pass, but the Lions will surely lean on the ground game and exploit the host's weaknesses in Week 4. Sit Carolina's defense for this rough matchup in Charlotte.

Wayward Vikings Offense Limits Potential For T.J. Hockenson
The past few weeks have been a major struggle for the Minnesota Vikings offense, which dims the outlook for T.J. Hockenson ahead of a Week 4 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Currently, Minnesota ranks dead last in the NFL in total yards, passing first downs, and net yards per attempt, which makes the whole passing operation difficult to trust. Hockenson could see an uptick in usage now that star receiver Justin Jefferson (ankle) will miss the game, though the same circumstances didn't amount to much last week in Tampa Bay, as quarterback Kyler Murray looked skittish in his first full game of the season. With nine catches in three games, Hockenson is performing as a TE2, which is how he should likely be viewed again this week. He's ranked as RotoBaller's No. 23 tight end for Week 4.

Darren Waller a Priority Streaming Option in Week 4
The Carolina Panthers' receiver room is battling injuries, but tight end Darren Waller should see more targets in Week 4. Waller was dealing with a toe injury leading up to Week 4, but was off the injury list and a full practice participant on Friday. The veteran has hauled in 10 receptions on 13 targets for 112 yards this season, and his target share should spike in Week 4 since receiver Xavier Legette (knee) is out and Jalen Coker (quad) is questionable to play. Detroit has struggled to contain tight ends this season and is allowing a league-high 299.3 passing yards per game. Even if Coker plays, Waller is a priority streaming option against a struggling Detroit D.
