Tyjae Spears Only A Flex Option For Deeper Leagues

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears faces the Miami Dolphins this coming Monday night in Week 4. The sophomore running back put up his highest yard total of the season last week with 61, and was on the field quite a bit when the Titans were playing catch up vs. Green Bay. He's still been […]

Tony Pollard Still A Strong Flex Play For Week 4

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard heads to Miami to face the Dolphins in a Week 4 primetime matchup. After two strong weeks to start the season Pollard took a major step back last week with only 4.4 points in half-PPR scoring. The positives were that he still drew four targets, and managed to out-rush […]

Bijan Robinson Cleared For Sunday

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson (shoulder) logged a full practice on Friday and does not carry an injury designation heading into Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints. Robinson popped up on Thursday's injury report as a limited participant but returned in full on Friday, suggesting this was a very minor injury. Fantasy managers […]

David Montgomery Looks To Keep Rolling In Week 4

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery should continue his featured rushing role in the team's backfield in a Week 4 matchup against Seattle on Monday night. Star center Frank Ragnow (pectoral) has already been ruled out, but the Lions' talented offense line should still be able to create holes for the powerful back. Jahmyr Gibbs […]

Jahmyr Gibbs Remains Heavily Involved For Lions

Jahmyr Gibbs has been featured in the Lions' backfield so far this season alongside David Montgomery and that should continue to be the case in Week 4. The versatile running back had a season-high 16 carries against the Cardinals in Week 3 and scored a touchdown on a lateral play after a catch by Amon-Ra […]

Jaylen Warren Unavailable For Week 4

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren (knee) has been ruled out ahead of the Week 4 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. This comes as little surprise given the fact that Warren hasn't practiced all week due to a knee injury. He underwent an MRI last week, but the team hasn't given much information surrounding the […]

Alvin Kamara Practices On Friday

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (hip, ribs) was able to get on the practice field for Friday's session. This is good news after Kamara sat out of Wednesday's practice, but has been involved each of the last two days. The fact that Kamara has practiced two days in a row should mean that […]

James Conner Due For Bounce Back Performance In Week 4

Despite solid performances in Weeks 1 and 2, Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner struggled to find running room in the Week 3 loss to the Detroit Lions, managing just 17 rushing yards. This has raised concerns among fantasy managers, especially after Conner had been viewed as a reliable starter across all league formats. However, […]

Najee Harris - Week 4 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2 ANALYSIS: When the going is rough, all that's needed is a cupcake matchup to buck the trend.

Aaron Jones Borderline RB1 Play Week 4

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones gets an opportunity to play against his long-time former team, the Green Bay Packers, in Week 4, and he is set up to have a big game. The former Packer has been a top running back for fantasy in PPR formats to this point and will be playing against […]

Joe Mixon Practicing On Friday

Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon (ankle) was seen at Friday's practice, according to DJ Bien-Aime of ESPN. Mixon did not practice during the first two sessions earlier this week, so this could open the door for the 28-year-old to return to action this weekend. Mixon sat out last Sunday's game due to an ankle […]

Rico Dowdle Punches In First Score Of The Season

Dallas Cowboys running back Rico Dowdle tallied a season-high 46 yards on 11 carries and added 15 yards and a score on one catch in Thursday's victory over the New York Giants. Dowdle found the end zone for the first time this season on a screen pass just inside the red zone. Dowdle was also […]

When Is Jonathon Brooks Going To Play? Latest Injury Update for Week 4

Carolina Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks was the first ball carrier off the board in the 2024 NFL Draft. In fact, he was the only RB taken inside the first two rounds.

We are nearly a quarter of the way into the NFL season. Despite plenty of big-name players currently being sidelined due to injuries, we have not had a ton of huge waiver names popping up just yet.

High-Powered Offenses: Fantasy Football Players to Target in Week 4 Lineups

Hello, RotoBallers, and welcome to Week 4 of the High-Powered Offenses column. Week 3 was a rough one for fantasy with more poor performances and injuries.

Fantasy Football Rookie Report for Week 4 - Searching for League Winners

As stated in last week's column, rookies provide massive value for fantasy managers because they can often be acquired cheaply and have a much higher chance of outperforming their ADPs. There's no previous NFL tape or statistics to lean on, so rookies can be difficult for fantasy managers to evaluate. There are many fantasy-relevant rookies […]

Devin Singletary Shut Down By The Cowboys In Week 4

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary had a quiet night in Thursday's 20-15 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, managing just 24 rushing yards on 14 carries for a lackluster 1.7 yards per attempt. Singletary's longest run of the evening went for just five yards, as he struggled to find running lanes against a tough […]

Raheem Mostert Limited As Week 4 Prep Begins

Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (chest) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday. It was somewhat promising to see Mostert, who hasn't played since Week 1, get on the field in some capacity a full four days before Miami's game against the Tennessee Titans. Having Mostert available would be great for a Dolphins […]

Jaylen Warren Sidelined Again Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren (knee) missed a second consecutive practice on Thursday. Now, less than three days until Pittsburgh's Week 4 game against the Indianapolis Colts, it looks like Warren is trending toward being inactive, though Friday's injury report should provide more context surrounding his status. If he is indeed sidelined, Najee Harris […]
