Hunter Henry Scores First Touchdown Of The Season

Nelson Agholor Goes Over 50 Yards

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor didn't have the explosive type of game that many were expecting to happen. In Week 4, Agholor hauled in three of his five targets for 55 yards in the loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It was a frustrating performance for Agholor who couldn't capitalize against the banged […]

Kendrick Bourne Remains Involved Versus Buccaneers

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne has been quiet outside of his explosive performance in Week 3. It was uncertain what type of performance the Pats would get here, but they have to be happy with the result. Bourne hauled in all five of his targets for 58 yards in the Week 4 loss […]

Jakobi Meyers Sees Double-Digit Targets In Loss

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers has been the most reliable offensive weapon for this team through the first month of the season.

Damien Harris Held In Check By Tampa Bay

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris was expected to take on a bigger role with James White (hip) out for the rest of the season. However, Harris didn't see much action at all during the Week 4 matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Harris rushed four times for negative yardage and caught two receptions […]

Mac Jones Puts Together Quality Showing

New England Patriots quarterback Mac Jones looked fairly solid during the Week 4 matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He completed 31-of-40 passing attempts for 275 yards and two touchdowns with one interception in the loss. The rookie quarterback put together arguably the best performance of his career in this one. It was a game […]

Nick Folk Active In Week 4 Against Bucs

New England Patriots kicker Nick Folk (knee) will play for the Sunday Night Football showdown against the Buccaneers. The 36-year-old veteran had been questionable heading into the evening. However, after practicing throughout the week, he continued to trend in the right direction. Despite Folk's advanced NFL age, his presence should be welcomed by those who […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Inactive For Sunday Night Football

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (healthy scratch) is inactive for the Sunday Night Football matchup against Tom Brady and the visiting Buccaneers. After James White (hip) was lost for the year, it was assumed that the rookie would provide relief for Damien Harris moving ahead. However, that isn't the case, at least in […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Has An Opportunity For Bigger Role

Wide Receiver Matchups to Target in Week 4

Through the first three weeks of the season, the league's top cornerbacks, like Jalen Ramsey, Jaire Alexander and Trevon Diggs, have held receivers in check for the most part.

Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups: Week 4

The post-waiver pickups have probably not been as prevalent during the first three weeks of the NFL season in fantasy football leagues. I feel like the 2021 season has been light on “questionable” injury tags and last-minute Sunday morning scratches. Just because things have been easier than usual on fantasy football general managers early on […]

Finding Tight End Breakouts - Champs, Chumps, and Contenders

We're going to keep this train moving here on to Week 4. Maybe this is just me, but I'm constantly torn in both directions once the NFL season starts. On one hand, I can't get enough of it and I can't wait until next Sunday. On the other hand, I want it to slow down […]

What a week for the kickers! We saw Justin Tucker make the longest kick in the history of the NFL and for a game-winner, no less. 66 yards off the crossbar, just insane. If that wasn't enough, Mason Crosby gave us another game-winner. This time from 51 yards out. Kickers, truly are the perfect example […]

Jonnu Smith Hoping To Bounce Back In Week 4

New England Patriots tight end Jonnu Smith is coming off his worst game of the season in Week 3. He hauled in one of his six targets for four yards in the loss to the New Orleans Saints.

Hunter Henry A TE2 Against Tampa Bay

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry has not surpassed 42 receiving yards in each of his first three games this season. That is unlikely to change against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 4. A defense that struggles to contain the pass, but is middle of the road at stopping tight ends. The Pats […]

Kendrick Bourne A Risky Streaming Option

New England Patriots wide receiver Kendrick Bourne is coming off his best game of the season in Week 3. He hauled in six receptions for 96 yards and one touchdown. He'll head into a favorable matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this week. A defense that has allowed the most fantasy points to wide receivers […]

Jakobi Meyers In WR3 Mix For Week 4

Nelson Agholor A Possible WR4 Against Tampa Bay

New England Patriots wide receiver Nelson Agholor is coming off a dud in Week 3, but he should bounce back in a Sunday night matchup with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 4. The Buccaneers have allowed the most fantasy points to wideouts this season. Agholor was brought in to be their deep threat and […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Could See Increased Role

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson could be more involved in the offense with James White (hip) done for the season. Stevenson has been a healthy scratch each of the last two weeks after fumbling in the season opener. Damien Harris will remain the lead back and first choice, but Stevenson and J.J. Taylor […]
