Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson has paid early dividends in fantasy so far, and he hopes to continue riding a hot streak in Week 4 against the Green Bay Packers. The former first-round receiver has been incredibly productive despite his team simply not having to pass much in the second half of their games. The Packers will probably pose a more competitive game than the Vikings have been used to this season. If so, expect even greater productivity from Jefferson, who has already scored a touchdown in his first three games. There is a chance that Jordan Addison (ankle) eats into the targets. However, start Jefferson and feel confident in that choice.

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tyler Huntley will lead the team when they face the Tennessee Titans at home on Monday night. Huntley, who was recently signed off the Baltimore Ravens practice squad, will get the start over previously assumed third-string option Tim Boyle. However, the decision comes as little surprise with the buzz around the former Raven during Miami's practices this week. Wide receiver Tyreek Hill -- despite not revealing his preference for a quarterback -- gave a glowing review of the 26-year-old when reporters asked about him. "I've been watching film of him since he's got here, I'm like, 'This dude can make every throw. This dude is special with his legs.' He's a special talent." The ex-Raven gives this team another element in the ground game that no other QB has afforded them, and he should be a boost to the offense's outlook. For now, the former undrafted free agent can't be trusted by fantasy managers because of his lack of experience in head coach Mike McDaniel's scheme. Additionally, Tennessee has been one of the more formidable defenses against the pass -- presenting as a problematic first matchup. However, given his rushing upside and the weapons around him, he's an intriguing add in superflex and 2QB formats. He'll be a QB2 with upside in Week 4.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas found the end zone twice in Week 2 versus the Chiefs. With Tee Higgins (hamstring) returning on Monday night against the Commanders after missing the first two games of the season, most assumed Iosivas would cool off. However, that didn't happen, with the 24-year-old grabbing five of his seven targets for 52 yards and a touchdown. It's important to note Higgins saw more offensive snaps in Week 3. Yet, Iosivas appears to have the attention of quarterback Joe Burrow, making him a viable fantasy option in Week 4 versus the Carolina Panthers.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle will have a challenging matchup in Week 4 when the team hosts the visiting Tennessee Titans on Monday Night Football. Waddle -- and the rest of the Dolphins' offense -- has sputtered over the last two weeks, seeing his production tick down with the loss of Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) to injured reserve. After a solid start to the season, where he caught all five of his targets for 109 yards, the fourth-year wideout has amassed just 67 yards and eight receptions on nine targets. With Skylar Thompson (ribs) also injured -- Tyler Huntley will take over as Miami's signal caller. Huntley will boost the Dolphins' skill players and should give the team a better chance to produce effectively. However, he was only just acquired by the team from the Baltimore Ravens' practice squad. Head coach Mike McDaniel will likely provide the 26-year-old QB with a more vanilla game plan. That and his propensity to use his legs could lead to fewer targets for Miami's pass-catchers overall. Despite a lowered floor and ceiling, the Alabama product -- like his speedy WR counterpart Tyreek Hill -- has the ability to turn any touch into six points. Waddle is RotoBaller's WR34 in Week 4's rankings regarding PPR formats.

Surprisingly, Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds leads the team with 174 receiving yards on 11 catches (15 targets) through the first three weeks of the season. He is second on the team in targets behind Courtland Sutton's 27. But with the Broncos offense struggling under rookie quarterback Bo Nix as he spreads the ball around, Reynolds profiles as a desperation flex play in Week 4 against a stout New York Jets defense that has allowed the fourth-fewest passing yards per game so far in 2024. Reynolds has been battling an Achilles injury that kept him limited in Wednesday's practice, but he was a full-go on Thursday and Friday and was removed from the final injury report for the week. The 29-year-old is only rostered in 3% of Yahoo leagues at the moment and is coming off his worst game in the Week 3 in over the Buccaneers, when he caught two passes for 36 yards.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins made his 2024-25 debut against the Commanders after missing the first two contests because of a hamstring injury. It wasn't a horrible showing, with the 2020 No. 33 overall pick catching three of his six targets for 39 yards. While Andrei Iosivas continues to look better each week, Higgins was still on the field more. With that said, Higgins remains a starting fantasy option in all formats versus a weak Panthers defense in Week 4. However, the wideout will need to play better or fantasy managers will consider benching him when the Bengals meet the Ravens in Week 5.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Zack Moss has played well in the team's first three games. Yet, he's coming off his best showing of the year so far, compiling 58 yards and a touchdown off 12 carries, adding five receptions for 39 yards in Monday's loss to the Commanders. While Chase Brown is in the mix, it's clear Moss remains the preferred option out of the backfield. Keep him in the starting lineup for the Week 4 clash versus a subpar Panthers defense.

From RotoBaller

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown had plenty of hype entering the 2024-25 campaign. Most assumed he would split time out of the backfield with Zack Moss. However, that hasn't happened, with Moss logging considerably more snaps through the first three games of the 2024-25 campaign. Although Brown will likely get some touches for the Week 4 matchup with the Carolina Panthers, he hasn't done enough to earn a place in most fantasy lineups.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill presents as a fantasy WR2 for the team's home matchup against the Tennessee Titans on Monday night. The superstar wideout has been a disappointment through the last two weeks, racking up just six receptions and 64 yards over the two contests. Unfortunately, he does not garner the same ceiling he did with Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) under center. Quarterback Skylar Thompson (ribs) also does not project to be available for the game, leaving Tyler Huntley and Tim Boyle as the team's two potential starting options ahead of the Monday night matchup. The former is expected to get the start, and he'll give Dolphins' skill players a better opportunity to produce, given the threat he poses as a runner. However, Tennessee has let up the third-fewest yards through the air this season and just 4.9 net yards per pass attempt (fifth-lowest). The 30-year-old speedster can still house any touch he receives, but fantasy managers can only expect production similar to Week 1 once we see it happen with a backup under center. Hill is RotoBaller's PPR WR22 in Week 4's ranks.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow struggled to begin the season, throwing for only 164 yards in the Week 1 loss to the New England Patriots. Yet, he has turned it around in the Bengals' last two games, most recently throwing for 324 yards and three touchdowns in Monday's meeting with the Commanders. Although Burrow's statistical contributions aren't reflected in the team's winless record, he should be considered a must-start for the favorable matchup versus a shaky Panthers defense.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Gabe Davis (shoulder) is officially questionable for Week 4 after practicing in a limited fashion all week. The former Buffalo Bill hasn't had any of his patented boom games through three weeks, catching eight of 16 targets with zero touchdowns on the season. If Davis were to miss the game, Parker Washington or Devin Duvernay would be the primary candidates to take his place. With Evan Engram already ruled out and Davis potentially following suit, Trevor Lawrence would likely rely more on Brian Thomas Jr. and Christian Kirk. Given the offense's struggles and Davis's lack of significant impact, it's hard to boost the other receiving options whether Davis has a limited snap count or completely misses out, as the Houston secondary would focus even more on Jacksonville's top two receivers. Fantasy managers planning on taking a risk with Davis this week should still keep a close eye on his status despite him practicing all week.

Through three weeks, Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton isn't a top-50 receiver in half-PPR scoring and he hasn't found the end zone after scoring a career-high 10 times in 2023. The good news is that he's currently tied for 12th among wideouts with 27 targets, and he's coming off his best game with seven grabs for 68 yards in the Week 3 win over Tampa. With a Week 4 matchup looming on the road versus the New York Jets and a likely showdown with cornerback Sauce Gardner, Sutton could very well struggle as he continues to gain chemistry with rookie quarterback Bo Nix. Sutton currently has a career-low 44.4% catch rate on his 27 targets, and the Jets defense has allowed only 150.7 passing yards per game (fourth-fewest) so far in 2024. The 28-year-old will continue to have a high target share, but he's going to need to be more efficient to be anything more than a touchdown-dependent WR4/flex in fantasy moving forward.

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane will have his work cut out for him this Monday night when the team hosts the visiting Tennessee Titans. The second-year back opened the season on fire with two top-three finishes at the RB position but saw his work and efficiency tick down last weekend with Skylar Thompson (ribs) and Tim Boyle manning the helm instead of an injured Tua Tagovailoa (concussion). Head coach Mike McDaniel has yet to determine who his starting quarterback will be in Week 4, though it is believed that the newly acquired Tyler Huntley is in line for the start. The Dolphins' offense should get a boost with the mobile 26-year-old under center, but Achane and the entire offense will have a tough matchup against a strong Titans defense. If Tennessee can be beaten anywhere, it's on the ground -- and Miami will need to use its versatile 22-year-old back if they want to stand a chance to walk away with a victory. The Texas A&M product will need to be included in the passing attack if fantasy managers hope to have production similar to that of the season's first two weeks. Achane is RotoBaller's PPR RB11 in Week 4's rankings.

Nothing fantasy managers have seen out of Denver Broncos running back Javonte Williams through the first three weeks of 2024 have convinced them to use him as an RB3/flex in Week 4 against a strong New York Jets defense on the road. Williams has led Denver's backfield in snap percentage each of the first three weeks, but he's averaging a career-low 2.2 yards per tote and has yet to find the end zone. The 24-year-old also lost a fumble in last week's win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and saw Tyler Badie carry the ball nine times for a team-high 70 yards. If Williams doesn't start improving soon, he could see Badie and Jaleel McLaughlin start to take more touches away as the Broncos try boost their ground game. This Sunday against the Jets, Williams is trending as a low-upside RB3/flex against a Jets defense that has allowed only 15 half-PPR fantasy points per game to the RB position through three weeks.

The Miami Dolphins will square off against the Tennessee Titans as part of a second consecutive Monday Night Football doubleheader. Ahead of the matchup, head coach Mike McDaniel has yet to decide whether Tim Boyle or Tyler Huntley will be his starting quarterback. McDaniel and the Fins are having a rough start to the season, with quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) out for a few more weeks and Skylar Thompson (ribs) unlikely to suit up this Monday. Boyle -- initially the team's third-string option -- presents with the lower floor of the two potential signal-callers and, at this point, looks less likely to get the start. On the other hand, Huntley, who was recently acquired off the Baltimore Ravens practice squad, is a more enticing option for the team as he brings a dual-threat element to his game. Despite the latter garnering a higher fantasy ceiling, neither quarterback will be a recommended option in Week 4. The 26-year-old Huntley could be an exciting addition in superflex and 2QB formats, so an empty roster spot could be used on him in case he performs better than expected. However, fantasy managers will want to exhibit caution when slotting him into their lineups in his first week of action. The two backups are both low-end QB2s.

Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin is only rostered in 22% of Yahoo leagues, and if he's on your squad, he should be left on your bench in a Week 4 tilt on the road against the New York Jets on Sunday. The Jets defense has allowed 129.3 rushing yards per game through three weeks, which isn't great, but they should be able to slow down rookie quarterback Bo Nix and what has been a below-average Broncos offense. Denver's ground game has been almost non-existent through three weeks, with McLaughlin averaging a weak 2.2 yards per carry on 18 attempts (70 yards). Not only has McLaughlin done very little with his 24 touches in 2024, but Tyler Badie had nine carries for 70 yards in last week's win over Tampa and could get more opportunities if both McLaughlin and Javonte Williams continue to stumble. Stay away from McLaughlin in starting lineups this weekend.

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix had the best game of his young career in leading the Broncos to their first win of the season in Week 3 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Nix completed a season-high 69.4% of his passes for 216 yards and didn't throw a pick after throwing four in his first two games. He also ran nine times for 47 yards and a touchdown. It represented progress for the 12th overall pick, mainly because he didn't turn the ball over and wasn't sacked at all. But the 24-year-old averaged only 6.0 yards per attempt and has yet to throw a TD pass through his first three games. It wouldn't be a surprise at all to see Nix take a step back in Week 4 on the road against a New York Jets defense that is allowing 12.4 fantasy points to QBs (lowest in the league) through three weeks. The Jets also allow the eighth fewest points per game. Nix is a QB3 in fantasy in Week 4.

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller (hamstring) is expected to return to practice next week, according to insider Nick Underhill. As soon as Miller is eligible to return from injured reserve, Miller will return to practice and be re-evaluated ahead of his eventual activation. As of now, it sounds very possible that Miller could be activated from injured reserve prior to the Saints' Week 5 game against the Kansas City Chiefs. The second-year running back has reportedly made a full recovery from the injury that had impacted him since Day 1 of training camp. We've previously heard that Miller hadn't quite earned the favor of head coach Dennis Allen yet, but he'll get another chance to prove himself when he hits the practice field next week. Miller figures to operate as the Saints' No. 3 running back behind Alvin Kamara and Jamaal Williams when he returns, but there's always a chance he could push for the backup job over Williams.

Dallas Cowboys defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence (foot) is expected to miss at least four weeks after being diagnosed with a mid-foot sprain, making him a prime candidate to be placed on injured reserve, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Head coach Mike McCarthy said that Lawrence's injury is even worse than Micah Parsons' high-ankle sprain. Lawrence has been productive throughout four games this year, registering 14 tackles, three sacks, and one forced fumble. Chauncey Golston and Marshawn Kneeland should see an uptick in snaps on the defensive line until Lawrence is healthy enough to return to the fold.

The Jacksonville Jaguars defense/special teams unit is one of the lowest-ranked options in Week 4 against the Houston Texans. The Texans will be missing Tank Dell and potentially Joe Mixon, but despite that, they still have plenty of weapons to cause problems for the Jaguars defense with C.J. Stroud throwing to Nico Collins and Stefon Diggs. Also, the Jaguars defense has not been great so far, forcing zero turnovers and scoring zero touchdowns. They also are coming off a 47-10 smackdown against the Buffalo Bills where they scored negative fantasy points. The only thing the defense really has going for them is the pass rush, but they didn't even register a sack against the Bills. While the Buffalo offense is one of the best in the NFL, it is discouraging for fantasy managers to see that bad of a performance from an NFL defense. Unless the Jaguars D/ST somehow scores a touchdown, they could be in for a second straight negative fantasy performance in Week 4.
