Now Is the Time to Sell High on Dak Prescott

Disaster Recovery - Week 4's Studs Turned Duds

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Usually, there's always one bonafide deep-threat in the Seattle Seahawks receiving core.

Week 4 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!
There were 17 quarterbacks that scored at least 20-fantasy points in Week 4 with Dak Prescott leading the charge.

Quinton Dunbar, Jamal Adams Could Return Sunday
Seattle Seahawks cornerback Quinton Dunbar (knee) and safety Jamal Adams (groin) could both be back in the mix for Sunday’s contest versus Minnesota, although head coach Pete Carroll made it apparent that they’ll need to continue progressing throughout the week.
