Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud will look to get the offense in gear in a favorable matchup in Week 4 against the Titans. Stroud and the Texans have slipped to 0-3 coming into Sunday's matchup with the 0-3 Titans. The offense has seemed stuck in neutral under new offensive coordinator Nick Caley, ranking 29th in the NFL in yards per game at 267.3. and 25th in the league with 172.3 passing yards per game. Stroud has thrown for right around 200 yards in each game with a total of two touchdowns and three interceptions. The offensive line is definitely part of the problem, but Stroud has also struggled. Facing the Titans could be a nice "get right" spot for Stroud. The Titans rank 25th in the league in DVOA against the pass and have allowed 31.3 points per game, the third-highest mark in the league. Stroud is the QB17 in RotoBaller's Week 4 rankings, making him a strong QB2 play in the matchup, even though he's still not a good option at all for single-quarterback leagues.

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver DK Metcalf (rest) did not practice on Thursday but carries no injury designation and will suit up in Week 4. He is staring down a challenge against the Minnesota Vikings after posting modest numbers through his first three games with the Steelers. The Vikings have given up the fewest fantasy points to opposing wideouts this season, holding stars like Ja'Marr Chase and Drake London to 50 yards or fewer. While Metcalf and quarterback Aaron Rodgers have shown chemistry in the red zone, Minnesota has allowed just one touchdown to a receiver, and none since Week 1. The seventh-year pro remains the clear top target in Pittsburgh and has the explosiveness to break open for a big play, but expectations should be tempered. Metcalf profiles as a low-end WR2 or flex option for this international showdown in Dublin, Ireland.

Denver Broncos offensive coordinator Joe Lombardi said that the team would like to get running backs J.K. Dobbins and RJ Harvey 20 carries per game if that were realistic because the team "likes each of them that much." The Broncos have had nothing but good things to say about Harvey, whom they drafted in the second round for a reason this year. However, despite the Broncos continuing to say they want a bigger role for Harvey, he's been stuck behind the veteran Dobbins in the RB pecking order through three weeks. The rookie's snap share has not gone over 33%, either, with Dobbins seeing a season-high 67% of the offensive snaps in the Week 3 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Harvey was an afterthought last week, carrying the ball twice for two yards, although he did catch a season-high three passes for 14 yards. Until further notice, the 24-year-old can't be considered anything more than a low-volume, low-upside RB3/flex in deeper fantasy leagues.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (hip) is currently listed as questionable ahead of the Week 4 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Higbee popped up on the injury report on Thursday due to a hip issue. Despite that, head coach Sean McVay doesn't believe the hip injury is a concern. McVay said that he expects Higbee to suit up for this weekend's contest. The 32-year-old hasn't done much on the field this season. He has four receptions for 37 yards through the first three games. It's probably best if Higbee is on the fantasy bench even if he's active for Week 4.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell scored his first touchdown of the season last week and will look to build on that momentum against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4. Minnesota has been strong against the run, allowing the 10th-fewest fantasy points and just one total touchdown to opposing backs this year. While the matchup doesn't set up favorably for Gainwell, Jaylen Warren (knee) is questionable, which could open the door for additional opportunities. Warren is expected to suit up in Ireland, but it's unclear if he will receive a full workload. Although Gainwell logged his lowest snap share of the season in Week 3, he could return to the 40-50% range he held over the first two weeks if Warren is limited. If Warren is surprisingly ruled out, Gainwell would rise to back-end RB2 territory, but for now, he's best viewed as a desperation flex play.

Los Angeles Rams WR Davante Adams (hamstring) was limited during practice Friday, Sept. 26, and is listed as questionable for Week 4.

Fantasy Spin: Adams did not practice much this week, so he could be a game-time decision in Week 4. He has played well during the early part of the season and will be a No. 1 or No. 2 receiver in fantasy leagues if he is active for the game.

From TheHuddle

Los Angeles Rams TE Tyler Higbee (hip) did not participate in practice Friday, Sept. 26, and is listed as questionable for Week 4.

Fantasy Spin: Higbee will probably be a game-time decision for Week 4, so fantasy players can check the inactive list for his status. He is averaging only two targets per game during the early part of the season and can be avoided in most leagues even if he is active for the game.

From TheHuddle

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Mac Jones (knee) is tagged as questionable for the upcoming Week 4 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Jones has been limited in practice all week due to a sprained PCL in his left knee that he suffered during last week's contest. The 27-year-old has made back-to-back starts for the 49ers, but can now resume his role as the backup. Head coach Kyle Shanahan has confirmed that Brock Purdy is active for Sunday's contest. That means, Jones would serve as the backup if he's healthy enough to play. Regardless, Jones is safe to drop with Purdy being a full-go for this weekend. Jones did a solid job as he threw for 563 yards with four touchdowns and one interception in his two starts.

From RotoBaller

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is 2-1 with seven touchdowns through his first three games but will face his toughest test yet against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 4. Minnesota has surrendered the third-fewest fantasy points and just three total touchdowns to opposing quarterbacks this season. While it's fair to note that the Vikings haven't faced a proven signal-caller yet, the Steelers' offense hasn't looked particularly sharp, especially over the past two weeks. Rodgers and his pass-catchers did show signs of life last week against the Patriots, but the 41-year-old still finished with only 139 passing yards in the victory. Although this international matchup in Dublin, Ireland, should be interesting, it isn't projected to be a high-scoring affair. That said, fantasy managers should avoid starting Rodgers as anything more than a low-end QB2 in superflex formats.

From RotoBaller

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) has been ruled out for the upcoming Week 4 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. As expected, Lamb won't suit up this weekend after suffering a high-ankle sprain during last week's loss to the Chicago Bears. Lamb is expected to miss multiple weeks due to this injury, but the team waited until Friday to officially rule him out. His absence should mean increased roles for George Pickens, Jalen Tolbert, and KaVontae Turpin. Also, tight end Jake Ferguson should also see a boost in value with Lamb sidelined.

From RotoBaller

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dyami Brown (shoulder) is currently listed as questionable heading into Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Brown was able to get through back-to-back limited practice sessions to end the week. It remains to be seen if that'll be enough to clear him for this weekend. Brown was forced to make an early exit from last week's contest against the Houston Texans. If healthy, Brown should offer some flex appeal for Week 4. Otherwise, Parker Washington could see a larger workload if Brown is unable to play.

From RotoBaller

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten (shoulder) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Tuten started the week as a limited participant in practice, but was able to upgrade to a full session on Friday. That was enough for the Jags to clear the rookie back for Sunday's contest. He should remain in the mix, but Travis Etienne Jr. is still the lead back right now. That being said, Tuten isn't going to offer strong starting value, but is certainly worth a stash in most fantasy formats.

From RotoBaller

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (shoulder) has been cleared to suit up for Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. This will be his first game action since suffering a dislocated shoulder in the season opener. As a result, Worthy was forced to miss the last two weeks. However, all signs point to Worthy being a full-go for Week 4. The Chiefs don't have many viable options on offense right now. That being said, Worthy should immediately be a factor in fantasy formats. The 22-year-old should be able to offer WR3 value for this weekend.

Denver Broncos TE Nate Adkins (foot), LB Nik Bonitto (wrist), TE Evan Engram (back), DE John Franklin-Myers (hip) and LB Alex Singleton (thumb) fully participated in practice Friday, Sept. 26.

From TheHuddle

Denver Broncos TE Evan Engram (back) fully participated in practice Friday, Sept. 26.

Fantasy Spin: Engram is on track to return to the lineup in Week 4 after being unable to play in the last game. He will see a few targets in the passing game if he is active but can be avoided in most leagues.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (shoulder) upgraded to a full practice on Friday after he was listed as limited on Thursday, according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. Waddle has been battling through a shoulder injury since Week 2, but he hasn't missed any time and should be cleared from the final Week 4 injury report on Saturday. The 26-year-old should be good to go to face the division-rival New York Jets on Monday night. He's going into Week 4 with some momentum, finding the end zone in back-to-back games for the 0-3 Dolphins. Waddle has had at least five targets in all three games and has caught 14 of his 17 targets for 137 yards and two touchdowns. With the Dolphins' offense looking better in last Thursday night's loss to the Buffalo Bills, it makes Waddle more palatable as a WR3/flex in fantasy in Week 4 against the Jets.

New York Jets quarterback Justin Fields (concussion) put in his second straight full practice this week on Friday, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Fields suffered a concussion in the Week 2 loss to the Buffalo Bills and did not suit up in last week's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 26-year-old is on his way to being cleared from the league's concussion protocol and returning to action on Monday night versus the division-rival Miami Dolphins in a good matchup. Head coach Aaron Glenn said that Fields will return to the starting role when he's cleared, even though veteran backup Tyrod Taylor led a spirited effort in a narrow loss to Tampa in Week 3. Fields' dual-threat abilities under center give him low-end QB1 value in fantasy, and it appears that he's close to being cleared to return against Miami after a one-week absence. Check back on Saturday to see if he's fully cleared.

Indianapolis Colts OG Matt Goncalves (toe), CB Kenny Moore II (Achilles) and WR Alec Pierce (concussion) did not participate in practice Friday, Sept. 26, and have been ruled out for Week 4. DT DeForest Buckner (back) did not practice and is listed as questionable. WR Anthony Gould (illness) was limited during practice and is listed as questionable. DE Samson Ebukam (non-injury) was limited during practice but is not on the injury report. CB Xavien Howard (non-injury), P Rigoberto Sanchez (non-injury), OT Braden Smith (heel) and DT Grover Stewart (non-injury) fully participated in practice and are not on the injury report.

From TheHuddle

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings (ankle, shoulder) is officially listed as questionable for the Week 4 tilt this Sunday versus the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Cam Inman of Bay Area News Group. Jennings missed the Week 3 win over the Arizona Cardinals and then missed practice on Wednesday and Thursday. The 28-year-old returned to the field on Friday, though, giving him a chance to suit up this weekend as the team looks to stay undefeated despite all of their injuries. He could be a game-time decision, which makes him a more risky fantasy option this week with the 49ers playing in the late window on Sunday. Fellow wideout Ricky Pearsall (knee) is also questionable, so San Fran's receiving corps could be down to Demarcus Robinson, Kendrick Bourne, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling if both Jennings and Pearsall are inactive. Quarterback Brock Purdy (toe, shoulder) is making his return in Week 4, but Jennings will be a shaky WR4/flex for fantasy managers if he's active.

From RotoBaller

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) is considered questionable to play in Week 4 on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars, according to Cam Inman of the Bay Area News Group. Pearsall should be on the right side of questionable this weekend. The 25-year-old was active in the Week 3 win over the Arizona Cardinals before missing practice on Wednesday. The good news is that Pearsall was limited on both Thursday and Friday, which gives him a good chance to play on Sunday. Still, fantasy managers using Pearsall in a flex spot should check back in the late window on Sunday to confirm that he's active. Pearsall's fantasy value will likely hinge on the status of Jauan Jennings (ankle, shoulder), who is also questionable. He has 100-yard games sandwiched around a 4-56-0 line in Week 2. If Pearsall is active and Jennings misses a second straight game, Pearsall will be a strong fantasy play this weekend, especially with quarterback Brock Purdy (toe, shoulder) returning after a two-week absence.
