Fantasy Football News

Jets TE Kenyon Sadiq (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Bears. He got in 3 limited practices, so we’re expecting him to play. But you’ll need to check back Sunday morning to make sure he’s active. Jets TE Mason Taylor (thumb) has been ruled out.

Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving (glute) is not listed on the final injury report. He was limited in the first two practices of the week but put in a full workout on Friday. Irving should be ready for his usual role against the Packers on Sunday.

Bears RB D'Andre Swift (knee) is not listed on the final Week 4 injury report. He was held out of Thursday’s practice but returned to a full workout on Friday. He should be ready for his usual role against the Jets this weekend.

Rams WR Puka Nacua (hip) practiced all week and will play vs. the Eagles on Sunday, HC Sean McVay said Friday. McVay added that Nacua “looked sharp” on Thursday but that the Rams are still figuring out how much he’ll be able to play against Philadelphia. We’ll look for more details on that front. Nacua carries more risk than usual coming off the injury, but he’d still be very tough to leave out of Week 4 fantasy lineups.

Vikings WR Justin Jefferson (ankle) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Dolphins. The Ringer’s Tom Pelissero said Friday that Jefferson is “progressing” and expected back next week vs. the Saints. His absence this weekend leaves Jordan Addison as Minnesota’s top WR in an excellent matchup. He checks in 26th in our Week 4 WR rankings.

Colts WR Keenan Allen is listed as questionable for Sunday morning’s game vs. the Commanders. He was limited in practice on Wednesday and Thursday and then sidelined on Friday. Allen is on the injury report with a groin and “rest.” We’ll look for more info on his status and get the Colts inactives around 8 am ET on Sunday.

Bears QB Caleb Williams (hamstring) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Jets. He remained sidelined in practice all week and could miss more time. HC Ben Johnson has not publicly announced a starting QB for this game. We’re projecting it to be Tyson Bagent for now but will keep you updated on the situation.

Commanders TE Chig Okonkwo (hamstring) is off the final injury report and will play vs. the Colts on Sunday morning. Washington could use Okonkwo with WR Terry McLaurin iffy with a hamstring injury. But Okonkwo remained limited in practice all week and would be a risky fantasy start coming off a two-week absence.

Commanders RB Rachaad White (shoulder) is out for Sunday morning’s game vs. the Colts after missing practice all week. His absence leaves Washington with RBs Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Kaytron Allen, and Austin Ekeler. We’ll see if Ekeler is ready to play after signing earlier this week, but he’s the only RB in that trio with pass-catching chops.

Commanders WR Terry McLaurin was added to the injury report and limited in practice on Friday with a hamstring. He's listed as questionable for Sunday morning's game vs. the Colts. McLaurin likely hurt his hamstring in Friday's practice, which would leave him very iffy to play just two days later. We'll look for further updates on McLaurin, but fantasy owners should start lining up another option. His absence would leave Washington with WRs Stefon Diggs,Treylon Burks, Dyami Brown, and Antonio Williams atop the depth chart. It'd also be a big blow to QB Marcus Mariota's fantasy outlook.

Panthers WR Jalen Coker (quad) is listed as questionable for Sunday night’s game vs. the Lions. He got in limited practices on Thursday and Friday, although it doesn’t sound like he did much in the portions of practice open to media. We’ll look for further updates on Coker, but the late kickoff could leave fantasy owners in a tough spot. WR Xavier Legette (knee) has been ruled out for Week 4. Coker’s absence would leave Brycen Tremayne as Carolina’s No. 2 WR – and WR Tetairoa McMillan and TE Darren Waller as the top two target bets.

Jets WR Adonai Mitchell (finger) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Bears. His absence last week left WRs Isaiah Williams, Sterling Shepard, and Malik McClain behind Garrett Wilson. Expect another heavy dose of targets for Wilson this weekend.

Jets RB Breece Hall (quad) is out for Sunday's game vs. the Bears. He didn't practice all week and could miss multiple games. Hall's absence leaves Braelon Allen as New York's clear lead back. He lands 20th in our Week 4 RB rankings in a plus matchup against Chicago's 23rd-ranked RB defense.

Commanders QB Jayden Daniels (elbow) is out for Sunday morning's game vs. the Colts in London, HC Dan Quinn said. Daniels was limited in practice this week, wearing a bulky brace on that injured left elbow. We'll see if he can make it back for Week 5's meeting with the Giants, but QB Marcus Mariota gets another start this weekend. He's a viable QB1 spot start coming off a nice outing against Seattle. The Colts rank 24th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to QBs.

Browns WR Denzel Boston led the team with 89 yards on 4 receptions in Thursday night's win over the Steelers. The bulk of that damage came on a blown coverage in the second quarter that resulted in a 60-yard catch and run for the rookie. Boston's other catches went for 5, 9, and 15 yards. But he also had 3 other deep targets that didn't quite connect. Boston's 7 targets tied for second on the team and were a 21% share.

Steelers RB Jaylen Warren compiled 126 total yards on 20 touches in Thursday night's loss to the Browns. He played 69 of Pittsburgh's 71 offensive snaps and ran a route on 87% of pass plays. Warren handled 17 of the team's 19 carries, ripping off 5.5 yards per attempt. That included runs of 24, 13, and 11 yards. Warren also tied for second among Steelers with 6 targets, catching 3 for 33 yards.

Steelers WR D.K. Metcalf racked up a season-high 115 yards in Thursday night's loss to the Browns, leading the team with 9 targets and 5 catches. Metcalf was especially good late in this one, making 22- and 28-yard receptions on Pittsburgh's fourth-quarter TD drive that briefly tied the game at 24. He could have had an even bigger game had QB Aaron Rodgers seen Metcalf streaking wide open up the seam in the first half for what could have been a long score.

Steelers WR Michael Pittman caught just 2 of 4 targets for 15 yards in Thursday night's loss to the Browns. He finished sixth on the team in targets, catches, and receiving yards. His 71% route rate still ranked second among Pittsburgh WRs but was a season low.

Judkins turned in his best fantasy outing of the season in Thursday night’s win over the Steelers, racking up 96 total yards and a score. He didn’t find much room on the ground, averaging just 3.1 yards across 17 carries. But he punched in a two-yard TD in the second quarter. Judkins was also busy in the passing game, hauling in 6 of 7 targets for 43 yards.

Panthers WR Jalen Coker (quad) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. That gives him a shot to play vs. the Lions on Sunday night. We'll see what Coker does tomorrow and then how he's listed on the final injury report.
