13 hours agoNew York Jets tight end
Tyler Conklin caught four of his eight targets for 17 yards in a 10-9 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 4. Conklin ultimately didn't do much in the box score but his eight targets tied him with
Garrett Wilson and
Allen Lazard for the team lead. Conklin has seen his target share tick up over the past two weeks, drawing 14 over that span as
Aaron Rodgers has been looking his way often of late. Conklin will be on the fantasy radar as a TE2 heading into Week 5's London game against the Minnesota Vikings.

Allen Lazard caught five of his eight targets for 58 yards in a 10-9 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 4. Lazard wound up finishing second on the team in receiving yards while tying for the lead with his eight targets and five catches. The veteran has looked reinvigorated this season, having gone for at least 48 receiving yards in three of his four games while hauling in three touchdowns. Firmly established as a weekly flex option, Lazard will now get ready to take on the Minnesota Vikings in London in Week 5.

13 hours agoNew England Patriots quarterback
Jacoby Brissett completed 19 of 32 passes for 168 yards, one touchdown, and one interception during a Week 4 loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He also rushed for three yards and took six sacks behind a depleted offensive line. Furthermore, Brissett fumbled three times, with one of those fumbles being recovered by the defense. The veteran quarterback had not allowed a turnover through the first three games this season, but then he coughed up the football twice on Sunday. New England falls to 1-3 as buzz continues to grow for
Drake Maye. For now, though, the offense still belongs to Brissett. He remains the Patriots' starting quarterback heading into a Week 5 clash with the ailing Miami Dolphins. Perhaps this favorable matchup next Sunday will be enough to get the Patriots back in the win column. However, Brissett is still off the fantasy radar given the Patriots' run-heavy approach on offense.

Mike Williams caught four of his five targets for 67 yards in a 10-9 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 4. Williams managed to lead the Jets in receiving yards despite finishing second on the team in catches and targets in the low-scoring loss to Denver. Williams has slowly gotten better each game this season as he did not record a target while playing sparingly in Week 1. Fantasy gamers should continue to be patient with Williams, who has yet to score a touchdown this season but has been a prominent part of the New York offense in the red zone. Williams will be on the fantasy radar as a flex option heading into Week 5's matchup against the Minnesota Vikings in London.

13 hours agoNew York Jets wide receiver
Garrett Wilson caught five of his eight targets for 41 yards and lost a fumble in a 10-9 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 4. Wilson and the Jets offense struggled on a rainy day, failing to score any touchdowns in the low-scoring loss. The veteran wide receiver wound up finishing third on the Jets in receiving yards despite tying for the team lead in targets and catches. Wilson has underwhelmed as
Aaron Rodgers' No .1 receiver thus far this season, failing to top 60 receiving yards in a game and scoring just one touchdown on the year. Looking more like a fantasy WR2 instead of the WR1 he was drafted to be, Wilson will look to bounce back against the Minnesota Vikings in London in Week 5.

14 hours agoNew York Jets running back
Braelon Allen carried the ball eight times for 34 yards and added a 12-yard catch in a 10-9 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 4. Allen didn't post a great final stat line but he outproduced starter
Breece Hall, who managed just four yards on 10 carries in the close loss to Denver. The rookie running back has been productive on a small workload thus far this season, going for at least 33 rushing yards in three of four games while scoring two touchdowns over that span. Allen has shown himself to be a talented NFL running back who should be treated as a high-end handcuff in fantasy moving forward. He will take on the Minnesota Vikings in London in Week 5.

14 hours agoKansas City Chiefs wide receiver
Rashee Rice (knee) will have an MRI on Monday after exiting Sunday's matchup with the Chargers. There hasn't been a firm update on the wideout's condition. However, with head coach Andy Reid indicating things don't look promising regarding Rice's condition, fantasy managers are already bracing for the worst, including what the team fears to be a torn ACL. It's unfortunate, considering he had 24 catches for 288 yards and two touchdowns in the first three weeks of the 2024-25 campaign. Yet, with Rice's anticipated absence moving ahead,
Skyy Moore,
Xavier Worthy, and
Travis Kelce are in line to see more attention from
Patrick Mahomes.

14 hours agoNew York Jets running back
Breece Hall carried the ball 10 times for four yards and caught two of his five targets for 14 yards in a 10-9 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 4. It was a rough afternoon for Hall and the rest of the New York offense as they were unable to cross the goal line at any point, instead settling for three field goals in the low-scoring loss. Hall's performance easily goes down as his worst of the season as he had found the end zone in each of his previous three contests before running into the Broncos on Sunday. The veteran running back will now begin preparations to take on the Minnesota Vikings in London in Week 5. Fantasy gamers should count on him to bounce back and deliver an RB1 performance for them in that matchup.

14 hours agoCincinnati Bengals running back
Chase Brown had 15 carries for a team-high 80 yards in Sunday's win over the Carolina Panthers. He added two grabs for 12 yards. Brown wasn't relevant for fantasy managers throughout the first three weeks of the year. However, the 24-year-old had a big outing in Week 4, which also included two trips to the end zone.
Zack Moss was still involved (and productive), so it remains to be seen if Brown will get opportunities to produce in Week 5 versus the Ravens. With that in mind, he deserves flex consideration for that one based on his performance on Sunday, although his presence in fantasy lineups is still risky.

14 hours agoNew York Jets quarterback
Aaron Rodgers completed 24 of his 42 passes for 225 yards while adding five carries for 26 yards in a 10-9 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 4. Rodgers and the Jets had a tough time putting points on the board on a sloppy, rainy afternoon in New Jersey as they to the underdog Broncos. The veteran quarterback took five sacks and came up favoring his left leg after taking a sack in the fourth quarter, the same leg in which he had his Achilles tendon surgically repaired last year, but he told reporters after the game that he was fine. Rodgers has now thrown for five touchdowns and one interception through four games while leading the Jets to a 2-2 record. The veteran quarterback will now begin preparing to take on an exciting Minnesota Vikings offense in London in Week 5. He can be slotted in as a mid-range QB2 for that contest.

14 hours agoCincinnati Bengals quarterback
Joe Burrow finished Sunday's win over the Panthers by throwing for 232 yards, two touchdowns, and one pick off 22-for-31 passing. While the 2020 No. 1 overall pick wasn't as productive as in Week 3, he still did enough to lead the Bengals to their first victory of the 2024-25 campaign. His increase in production has also resulted in
Ja'Marr Chase picking up his third touchdown of the year in Week 4. The Bengals will meet the Ravens in Week 5 in an AFC North clash. While Burrow and the Bengals offense could be tested, the signal-caller remains a starting fantasy option for that one.

14 hours agoWashington Commanders kicker
Austin Seibert continued his perfect streak as a Commander in Week 4 as he went 2-for-2 on attempts and 4-for-4 on extra points in Sunday's victory. Since joining the Commanders in Week 2, Seibert has hit ten field goals and nine extra points. While Seibert's leg has yet to be tested from 50+ yards out, his hot stretch makes him a favorable streaming candidate going forward. In addition, as the Washington offense continues to improve every week, Seibert should see regular attempts to put points on the board. He is shaping up to be a solid option in all formats next week as the Commanders return to the DMV to host the Cleveland Browns.

14 hours agoLos Angeles Rams wide receiver
Demarcus Robinson had just two catches for 37 yards in Sunday's loss to the Bears. With
Puka Nacua (knee) and
Cooper Kupp (ankle) on the shelf, most assumed Robinson would benefit the most. However, that hasn't happened. Instead,
Tutu Atwell and
Jordan Whittington have gotten more involved, with the duo combining for 10 grabs for 144 yards in Week 4. With that in mind, Robinson has worked his way out of the flex conversation for Week 5 versus the Packers. That won't change beyond Week 5 unless he turns things around.

14 hours agoWashington Commanders tight end
Zach Ertz had a quiet day on Sunday afternoon even though the Commanders scored 42 points. The veteran tight end finished the day with just three catches (on three targets) for 22 yards. He also caught a two-point conversion late in the game. Ertz finished fourth on the team in receiving yards behind
Terry McLaurin,
Olamide Zaccheaus, and
Noah Brown. This was also his lowest yard total of the season. Fantasy managers should not be overly concerned with Ertz as the Washington offense continued to move down the field all afternoon. The 33-year-old remains a low-end TE1 going forward, as he should still see stable production given that he will be on the field for most of the snaps despite this underwhelming Week 4 output.

14 hours agoWashington Commanders wide receiver
Olamide Zaccheaus led all Washington pass catchers with 85 yards on Sunday afternoon in their victory over the Arizona Cardinals. Zaccheaus caught all six of his targets, which were only second to
Terry McLaurin (10 targets). This was a nice breakout performance for the 27-year-old, as he has caught just one pass through the first three weeks of action. Last week, he did not even see a target, and ran just four routes. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Zacchaeus's performance as he outperformed
Noah Brown (26 yards) and rookie
Luke McCaffrey (17 yards), who have typically been deployed as the No.2 and No.3 wideouts, respectively. Zaccheaus should remain on your waiver wire for now in standard leagues, but could be worth stashing in deeper 14+ team leagues.
