New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson is a fantasy non-factor who should remain on waiver wires, but he has a slight chance to gain relevance with a rookie quarterback making his first start. Johnson has been unproductive through three weeks, ranking as the TE42 while averaging a mere 2.63 fantasy points per game on just 10 total targets, despite a high 77.4% snap share. The primary hope is that rookie QB Jaxson Dart leans on him as a security blanket, which could finally boost his target share against a defense allowing the second-most passing yards. Still, he faces a Chargers defense that is tough on tight ends (9.2 FPPG) and is first in red zone touchdown rate, making him a desperation-only play.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford has played quite well this season and should continue to rank as a mid-to-low fantasy QB2 for this week's matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Stafford has 739 yards, five touchdowns, and two interceptions so far, ranking 17th among quarterbacks in fantasy points. His productivity has been aided by big plays from star receivers Puka Nacua and Davante Adams (hamstring). He should pick up right where he left off this weekend, despite a matchup against the 3-0 Indianapolis Colts. The Colts have played quite well so far, but two of their three games have been against winless teams, and their third was against a 1-2 Broncos squad. The Rams are easily the toughest team the Colts have faced, and Stafford should be able to find some success through the air. A lack of rushing prowess limits Stafford's upside, but he's still a must-start in two-quarterback leagues. RotoBaller's experts have the veteran ranked as the overall QB18 this week.

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams ranks as the overall RB16 through three games this season, and he'll look to maintain his fantasy relevance heading into Week 4 against the Indianapolis Colts. The Rams have been more willing to use Blake Corum lately, suggesting Williams' role could get scaled back slightly. This would be problematic if his efficiency numbers were poor -- which they were for the first two games of the season before he averaged an impressive 4.7 yards per carry last week, bringing his season average to a respectable 4.1 yards per carry. He also has two touchdowns in three games, which have been enough to give him double-digit fantasy points in each of the three contests. All in all, Williams isn't the top-eight running back we saw in 2023 and 2024, but he's still a fantasy-relevant RB2 going forward. That remains the case this week against the Colts, who rank near the middle of the league with the 14th-fewest fantasy points allowed to running backs.

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton remains a volatile, big-play-dependent fantasy option who is best left on benches for Week 4's matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Slayton has struggled to earn consistent volume, seeing only eight targets all season, and now faces a Chargers secondary that allows the seventh-fewest fantasy points (28.4 FPPG) to wide receivers. While his fantasy production has been minimal (5.0 FPPG), his role as a deep threat (15.2 Y/R) could align with a big-armed rookie in Jaxson Dart, especially against a defense giving up the second-most passing yards (270). However, without any end zone targets and a low target floor, he is too risky to trust until he shows a connection with his new quarterback.

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs has been underwhelming during his first season with the team, amassing just 13 catches and 112 yards while ranking as the overall WR58 in PPR leagues. He could continue to struggle in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers. Although quarterback Drake Maye vowed to get Diggs more targets, we've heard him say this previously, only to leave him relatively uninvolved. Therefore, managers can't put a lot of stock into the quarterback's comments. Instead, it's best to stay away from Diggs until he demonstrates that he can be a fantasy-relevant receiver for consecutive weeks. Relevance may elude Diggs this week as he faces the Panthers, who have surrendered the fewest catches, second-fewest receiving yards, and second-fewest fantasy points to opposing wide receivers in 2025. RotoBaller's fantasy rankings have Diggs listed as this week's overall WR52.

From RotoBaller

New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte turned heads with six catches for 103 yards in Week 1, but with just three catches for 44 yards since then, he's off the fantasy radar. Managers simply can't trust Boutte heading into Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers, as his inconsistent volume has quickly turned him into a potential wide receiver bust. Plus, he certainly isn't getting any favors with this week's matchup. The Panthers have allowed the fewest catches, second-fewest receiving yards, and second-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. He ranks as the overall WR53 this week, according to RotoBaller's fantasy experts.

From RotoBaller

New England Patriots wide receiver DeMario Douglas is off the fantasy radar heading into Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers. The 24-year-old receiver has struggled to strengthen his rapport with Drake Maye this year, catching just five of his 13 targets for a measly 13 yards. Douglas has always been a short-yardage receiver with low touchdown totals, but his track record as a target hog seemed to give him some fantasy relevance in PPR drafts last month. That relevance has quickly slipped away as Douglas can now be dropped in most fantasy leagues. He's particularly unappealing this week as he faces the Panthers, who have surrendered the fewest catches, second-fewest receiving yards, and second-fewest fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025.

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson could be in line to register a career-high snap share against the Carolina Panthers in Week 4. Henderson led the team with a 46 percent snap share last weekend, and that was only after Rhamondre Stevenson got the start and fumbled away his role. Stevenson ultimately lost two fumbles in the contest, creating plenty of buzz about Henderson potentially handling more volume this week. While head coach Mike Vrabel wouldn't publicly commit to reducing Stevenson's role, it seems likely given last week's split, as well as the level of production that Henderson has shown this year. He has specifically impressed on passing downs as both a receiver and blocker. The Ohio State product is the overall RB35 in fantasy football this year, and while the presence of Stevenson may continue to be a thorn in his side, it won't necessarily preclude him from having standalone fantasy value. Managers should view Henderson as a solid RB3/flex option this week. RotoBaller's fantasy experts agree, ranking him as the overall RB30.

New England Patriots tight end Hunter Henry remains a very strong fantasy option heading into Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers. The veteran has been Drake Maye's favorite weapon so far, amassing 22 targets, 13 catches, 165 yards, and two touchdowns. He was particularly dominant in Week 2 when he totaled eight catches, 90 yards, and a pair of scores. He has recorded double-digit fantasy points in two of three games, ranking as the overall TE4 so far. That trend could continue this week against the Panthers, with the Patriots entering as 5.5-point favorites. While Carolina's defense has been solid against the pass, it's been iffy against tight ends specifically. The Panthers have allowed the ninth-most catches, third-most receiving yards, and eighth-most touchdowns to tight ends in 2025. Henry is a very strong fantasy option on Sunday, with RotoBaller's experts ranking him as the TE9 in Week 4.

From RotoBaller

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson has been a consistent fantasy asset this season and enters Week 4 as a flex option, even with a rookie quarterback making his first start. He faces a Los Angeles Chargers defense that has been surprisingly tough on wide receivers, allowing the seventh-fewest fantasy points to the position (28.4 FPPG) despite giving up a lot of yards. However, Robinson's role as a high-volume target (22 targets on a 69.8% snap share) makes him a likely safety blanket for rookie Jaxson Dart, especially against a defense that surrenders the second-most passing yards per game (270). As the 18th-ranked fantasy WR in points per game (11.93), Robinson's established role provides a stable floor in a potentially high-volume game.

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye has performed well this season, but he'll face a tough test against the Carolina Panthers in Week 4. While Carolina isn't commonly viewed as a dominant team, their defense has been quite strong this year, especially against quarterbacks. In full, the Panthers have allowed the third-most interceptions, the fewest passing touchdowns, and the fewest fantasy points to opposing quarterbacks in 205. They have also allowed zero rushing touchdowns to the position, but on the flip side, they've registered just one sack. With all that being said, Maye himself has been solid, ranking as the overall QB7 so far while rushing for 87 yards. He isn't immune to ugly football -- last week, he had two costly turnovers in a loss to the Steelers -- but for the most part, he has looked quite impressive while making massive strides in his second pro season. RotoBaller's experts aren't worried about Maye's tough matchup, ranking him as the overall QB6 heading into Sunday's Week 4 contest.

New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo has emerged as the team's bell cow and enters a challenging Week 4 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers as a volume-based RB2. The Chargers' defense has been elite against running backs, allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to the position (14.57 FPPG) and boasting the NFL's best red zone defense with a 25% TD rate. Despite the tough matchup on paper, Skattebo has been a top-8 fantasy RB over the last two weeks, commanding a 52.7% timeshare and proving his versatility with eight receptions and two rushing touchdowns. While L.A. is stingy on touchdowns, they rank 24th in rushing yards allowed (92.3), meaning Skattebo's high-volume role should keep him productive.

New York Giants rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart enters his first career NFL start as an intriguing but risky fantasy option at home against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 4. The Chargers present a difficult test, boasting the league's top-ranked red zone defense (25% TD rate) while allowing the 11th-fewest fantasy points (14.21 FPPG) to opposing quarterbacks through the first three weeks. However, Los Angeles has been susceptible through the air, surrendering the second-most passing yards per game (270), which could create opportunities for the rookie after a sharp preseason where he posted a 113.1 passer rating without an interception. Ultimately, Dart's fantasy value is significantly buoyed by his aggressive rushing style, demonstrated by his 52 yards and a touchdown in the preseason, establishing a solid floor that makes him a viable QB2 this week.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco will take on the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday in Week 4. Pacheco handled 10 carries for 45 yards and one catch for three yards in the 22-9 win over the New York Giants last week. The 26-year-old had a modest 4.5 yards per carry in the contest, but has only averaged 3.7 yards per carry on the season. Pacheco and Kareem Hunt have split the Chiefs backfield evenly this season, but neither back has pulled away as a favorite to handle more work. The modest Kansas City run game duo has failed to produce a rush over 11 yards in 48 combined carries this season. Pacheco has not looked the same since returning from his fibula fracture last season, and he'll need to improve his play before the Chiefs decide to make substantial changes to the run game. The good news is that Pacheco has the easiest matchup for running backs this week, the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens have allowed the most fantasy points to opposing running backs this season, and Pacheco could benefit from this advantageous matchup. Pacheco is ranked RB36 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, putting two spots behind Hunt and on the edge of RB3/Flex range. This could be a make-or-break week for Pacheco's role moving forward, so it will be interesting to see what he can do.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Troy Franklin has certainly taken a step forward during his second pro season, but he still isn't a very reliable fantasy option heading into Week 4 against the Cincinnati Bengals. Franklin broke out with eight catches and a touchdown in Week 2, but in his two other games, he averaged just three catches, 26 yards, and zero touchdowns. Without consistent production, the Oregon product ranks as a low-end WR4 and is a bit too risky to insert into lineups. That's especially true this week against the Cincinnati Bengals. While Cincinnati is limping right now with Joe Burrow (toe) sidelined, they've been solid against the pass, whether it's due to good defensive play or Cincinnati's opponents routinely running the ball with a sizable lead. The Bengals have allowed the 13th-fewest receiving yards and fifth-fewest touchdowns to wide receivers in 2025. Franklin can be left on the bench in most leagues.

From RotoBaller

Denver Broncos wide receiver Marvin Mims Jr. can be avoided in most fantasy leagues ahead of his Week 4 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals. Mims was a candidate to have a breakout season this year, but that hasn't come to fruition so far, as he has just six catches, 40 yards, and a touchdown. He ranks as the overall WR84 and can be dropped in most redraft formats at this point. This week's matchup likely won't do him any favors, either, as the Bengals have allowed the 13th-fewest receiving yards and fifth-fewest touchdowns to opposing wide receivers. Even teammate Troy Franklin has quieted down a little bit, leaving Courtland Sutton as the only Broncos pass catcher who can be started with confidence.

Tennessee Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo remains a consistent target for quarterback Cameron Ward heading into a Week 4 matchup against the Houston Texans. Okonkwo has 12 targets and nine catches over his last two games, ranking as the overall TE9 in PPR leagues during that span. The Maryland product is both a reliable outlet for Ward and a strong candidate to pick up extra yards after the catch. He's less appealing around the goal line, as he hasn't scored a touchdown this season and has just six scores through 54 career games. Nevertheless, he has shown that he can have some low-end fantasy value even when he's not breaking into the end zone. That should remain the case this week against the Texans, who have ranked near the middle of the league with the 14th-most receptions and 13th-fewest fantasy points allowed to tight ends. Okonkwo is a top-18 fantasy tight end with top-12 upside.

From RotoBaller

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor has emerged as one of quarterback Cameron Ward's favorite targets, as well as a top scoring option within the team's offense. This bodes well for his fantasy outlook ahead of a Week 4 divisional battle against the Houston Texans. Ayomanor now has eight catches and two touchdowns over his last two games, ranking as the overall WR19 in PPR leagues during that span. While we can't count on Ayomanor to score a touchdown every week, and therefore should not view him as a top-24 fantasy receiver, he is still on the radar as a potential starter in leagues with at least 12 teams. That's especially true as Calvin Ridley continues to struggle; the 30-year-old has 21 targets but just eight catches, ranking as the overall WR71. Ayomanor is arguably the top target in the Titans' offense, and an anticipated negative game script suggests that he should command at least five or six targets this weekend. He's an intriguing WR3/flex option, especially against a Texans defense allowing the seventh-most catches and receiving yards to wide receivers in 2025.

From RotoBaller

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Drake London drew a healthy eight targets in Week 3, turning them into five catches for 55 yards. The fourth-year wideout continues to be an integral part of the team's passing attack, but unfortunately, quarterback Michael Penix Jr. has yet to throw a touchdown to any of his wide receivers so far this year. That could changein Week 4 against a Washington defense that just allowed three receiving touchdowns last week, and a defense that has been tougher against the run. London will continueto be involved, leading the team with a 26 percent target share in 2025, and the 6-foot-4 receiver has seen his aDOT grow from 6.94 after the first two games to 8.63 after Week 3. The 24-year-old looks like a low-end WR1 this week, but could finish higher if he finally finds the end zone.

From RotoBaller

Tennessee Titans running back Julius Chestnut is not a reliable fantasy option heading into Week 4, despite his role as the direct backup to Tony Pollard. There are several reasons why fantasy managers should leave Chestnut on waivers. First of all, the Titans' offense is one of the worst in the league, so rushing opportunities aren't exactly easy to come by. Even when Tennessee does run the ball, it's difficult to carve out major yardage in this uninspiring offense. Additionally, they are facing the Houston Texans, who have allowed the sixth-fewest fantasy points to running backs in 2025. Finally, he's stuck behind Tony Pollard, whose 90 percent snap share is the most among all running backs in the NFL. In other words, nobody hogs running back snaps as much as Pollard, so it's hard to envision Chestnut getting on the field very often. For now, he's off the fantasy radar and would only become relevant if Pollard misses time. However, the veteran could slip even further down the depth chart if Tyjae Spears (ankle) is activated soon.
