Tampa Bay Buccaneers head coach Todd Bowles confirmed on Monday that wide receiver Mike Evans (hamstring) will have an MRI exam on Tuesday, according to Brianna Dix of Buccaneers.com. As of now, Bowles said it seems to be a low-grade injury, but the staff will know on Tuesday if Evans will have to miss time. It sounds like the 32-year-old future Hall of Famer might have avoided a serious injury in Sunday's win over the New York Jets, but he could still be forced to miss a Week 4 showdown against the Philadelphia Eagles. The good news for Tampa is that they could get Chris Godwin back for the first time since he dislocated his ankle in Week 7 of last year. If Evans cannot play in Week 4, rookie first-rounder Emeka Egbuka and Sterling Shepard could be Tampa's top two wideouts, with the Bucs likely easing Godwin back in if he's active.

Although Washington Commanders running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. wasn't all that efficient (3.5 yards per carry) in his 2025 debut in the team's 41-24 blowout win over the visiting Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday, he did lead the team with 11 carries. Rodriguez was a healthy scratch the first two weeks, but he was elevated to the active roster for Week 3 after Austin Ekeler tore his Achilles in Week 2. The 24-year-old ran for 39 yards on his 11 carries and was not utilized in the passing game. Rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt was second on the team with eight carries, and he, too, was inefficient with just 26 yards on the ground. Jeremy McNichols and quarterback Marcus Mariota combined for 10 rushing attempts and two touchdowns against the Raiders. Croskey-Merritt has the most upside in the Commanders' backfield moving forward with Ekeler done for the year, but Rodriguez is worth a waiver-wire pickup if you have JCM rostered or are looking for RB depth. Rodriguez is currently rostered in only 5% of Yahoo leagues.

A lot of fantasy managers probably thought that Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Quentin Johnston's two-touchdown performance in the Week 1 win over the Kansas City Chiefs was an outlier, but then he went for 71 yards and a third TD on the year in the Week 2 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders. In the 23-20 Week 3 win over the Denver Broncos, the former first-rounder caught six of his 10 targets for a team-high 89 yards, although he didn't find the end zone. His 10 targets were second to only Keenan Allen's 11, and the third-year wideout has made it clear that his Week 1 performance wasn't a fluke. Through three weeks, Johnston leads the Bolts with 239 receiving yards and is tied with Allen with three touchdowns while catching 14 of his 24 targets. If Johnston is still available in your league, pick him up immediately. He's currently rostered in 69% of Yahoo leagues.

New York Giants quarterback Russell Wilson completed 18 of 32 pass attempts for 160 yards, tossing two interceptions in his team's 22-9 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. Wilson cooked the Cowboys for a tremendous 450 yards and three TDs in Week 2, but struggled to get anything going against a much more formidable defense. It's encouraging to see the veteran utilize his legs, even if he isn't as spry as he once was, as even 20 rushing yards a week will modestly raise his fantasy floor. Unfortunately, owners will be subject to clunkers such as this one, but New York is a pass-friendly environment as of now, with the team airing it out at the sixth-highest rate (62.23%). Wilson is more of a mid-back-end streaming option in the right matchups. Next weekend's meeting with the staunch Chargers' defense doesn't project to be one of them.

When asked about the team's ball security on Monday, New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel said the plan this week is to "practice the crap out of it." Running back Rhamondre Stevenson lost two crucial fumbles in the 21-14 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 3 on Sunday, including one on the one-yard line in the third quarter. Stevenson has a history of ball-security issues, and it could cost him a key role in New England's backfield moving forward despite his big Week 2 performance. The 27-year-old had only four carries for 18 yards and caught all three of his targets for 38 yards through the air against Pittsburgh. Rookie TreVeyon Henderson was unable to take advantage on Sunday against the Steelers, but he could be New England's lead back in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers. Stevenson will be a pretty risky RB3/flex who could be punished for putting the ball on the ground.

Dallas Cowboys backup running back Miles Sanders saw more run in Dallas' 31-14 blowout loss on Sunday in Week 3 to the hosting Chicago Bears, carrying the ball nine times for 41 yards and catching all three of his targets for an additional 12 yards through the air. The 28-year-old looked the best he had in the third game of the season and had 4.6 yards per carry, although his elevated usage mostly came in garbage time in the second half with the Cowboys down by multiple scores. Four of his nine carries came on the last possession of the game, so fantasy managers looking for RB depth aren't going to be able to count on this kind of workload consistently moving forward, especially once the team finally decides to involve rookie Jaydon Blue (he's been a healthy scratch all three weeks). Right now, Sanders is merely a handcuff for fantasy managers who have Javonte Williams rostered.

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum gained 53 yards on eight carries in Sunday's 33-26 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Los Angeles collapsed late after commanding a significant lead over the reigning Super Bowl champions. Still, Corum continued to see an increase in his volume for the second straight week. Backfield mate Kyren Williams had handily outsnapped him 92-28 through the first two weeks, and did so again on Sunday (50-16). However, the 24-year-old has been the more efficient runner, posting three yards more per carry than his veteran counterpart (7.1). Corum won't be seizing the RB1 role in LA any time soon, but he's firmly on the high-end handcuff radar. We'll see if he can continue trending up when the Rams take on the surprise 3-0 Indianapolis Colts in Week 4.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs was a non-factor in Week 3's 13-10 loss to the Cleveland Browns, catching both of his targets for 25 scoreless yards. Sunday was an excellent matchup for those who love a defensive battle, but the offenses on both sides suffered. Doubs continued pacing the Packers' wideouts in snaps by a wide margin. However, his production dipped for the second game in a row since a team-leading 68 yards in Week 1. There was some hope that with his status as the operating WR1, the volume would follow suit. However, Dontayvion Wicks and rookie Matthew Golden both out-targeted him (four) despite running on 14 and 12 fewer snaps, respectively. Better days are ahead for Green Bay's offense, but they're rushing the ball at the fourth-highest rate in the league (50.29%), leaving little margin to support more than one pass-catcher per game. They'll face the Cowboys on the road in Week 4.

New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn reports on Monday that quarterback Justin Fields (concussion) will remain the team's starter once clearing concussion protocol. "Justin came in as our starter," Glenn said. "He's been our starter. Tyrod was the backup...So once Justin is clear, I'll let you know exactly where we're going." It sounds like New York's new head coach isn't willing to give up on the 26-year-old QB just yet. With the Jets squaring off against the Dolphins on Monday Night Football, we may not receive an update regarding Fields until later in the week, but as of now, he should be on track to suit up for that contest. However, if he can't, it'll be backup Tyrod Taylor calling signals once more. The Ohio State product will be one to monitor over the coming week.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Sterling Shepard caught 4-of-5 targets for 80 yards in Sunday's 29-27 win against the visiting New York Jets. Shepard sneakily climbed up to Tampa Bay's second-leading receiver with his second straight four-catch outing -- trailing only rookie wideout Emeka Egbuka in yards. He's also second on the team in receptions (11), though Egbuka, Mike Evans, and running back Bucky Irving are all tied ahead of him (14). Despite this, his 15 targets on the season thus far are quite a bit behind Evans (27) and the rookie (21). Moreover, Tampa Bay is attempting a pass at the ninth-fewest rate through three weeks, meaning the passing pie won't be big enough to support him when veteran Chris Godwin (ankle) returns. Shepard still may have some productive outings, but his floor could soon be alarmingly low.

Dynasty | Bengals running back Chase Brown had three rushing yards in a loss to the Vikings. Dynasty Analysis: He added 17 receiving yards on four catches to salvage his fantasy day at least a little. A year after coming close to 1,000 yards on 4.3 yards per carry, Brown now has just 93 yards in two games on a dreadful two yards per carry. It's alarming to say the least and while most of the blame can be placed on a woeful offensive line, Brown has been one of fantasy football's biggest disappointments thus far. He needs to be on benches moving forward and his ADP is going to suffer.

Dynasty | Vikings running back Jordan Mason had 116 rushing yards and two touchdowns against the Bengals on Sunday. Dynasty Analysis: While the Bengals clearly look like a team that may have just thrown in the towel, Mason may have also just ended the "Aaron Jones era" in Minnesota. He's always been an effective runner and this was no different. With Jones on IR, Mason will look to secure the lead back job permanently over the next few weeks. His ADP is on the rise and he needs to be in lineups every week at this point.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kenneth Gainwell scored his first touchdown of 2025 in Week 3, finishing the game with 26 yards from scrimmage and a score on five total touches. Gainwell scored on a one-yard run after lead Steelers back Jaylen Warren was stopped on consecutive goal-to-go opportunities. Gainwell has just 85 yards from scrimmage on 23 total touches through Pittsburgh's first three games, so he's still only fantasy-relevant as a handcuff option to Warren. Still, he's clearly ahead of Steelers rookie Kaleb Johnson on the backfield depth chart, and Gainwell should be added where available in all PPR-scoring leagues with 12 or more teams.

Chicago Bears rookie running back Kyle Monangai had a quiet statistical game in his team's Week 3 win over the Dallas Cowboys, finishing with 20 yards from scrimmage on seven total touches. Bears RB1 D'Andre Swift still appears to have a strong hold on the backfield touches in Chicago, as Swift finished with 78 yards from scrimmage on 16 total touches. Neither Bears running back is averaging four yards per carry so far this season, so Monangai could work his way into a larger workload if he can improve his production over the course of the season. In deep fantasy leagues, the 23-year-old could be a worthy stash candidate depending on overall roster construction.

Denver Broncos tight end Adam Trautman was not targeted by quarterback Bo Nix during his team's 23-20 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 3. Trautman recorded three catches for 10 yards and a touchdown in Week 2 and profiled as a desperation streaming option at tight end heading into Week 3 with top Broncos tight end Evan Engram (back) sidelined for the game. Instead, it was Broncos tight end Lucas Krull who found the end zone on Sunday, finishing with one catch for nine yards and a score. Trautman has four catches for 15 yards and a touchdown through the first three games of the season and should not be trusted by fantasy managers even if Engram remains sidelined for Week 4.

Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson should be in line for a significant workload increase after the unfortunate news that veteran Cardinals back James Conner (ankle) will miss the remainder of 2025 due to an ankle injury. Benson has logged 21 carries for 125 yards and eight receptions for 45 yards through the first three games of the season. He may not play a true three-down role, as Arizona mixed in running back Emari Demercado on passing downs after Conner went down in Week 3. Still, Benson should dominate touches in the Arizona backfield and is the priority waiver-wire addition in all fantasy leagues where he remains available.

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (ankle) is officially set to miss the remainder of the 2025 season after suffering a severe ankle injury in Week 3. Conner is undergoing additional tests on Monday to determine the exact extent of the injury, but will definitely undergo surgery, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL.com. The 30-year-old running back will finish 2025 with 133 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 40 total touches. Cardinals second-year back Trey Benson should be in line for a major workload increase and profiles as the number one waiver-wire addition in all fantasy leagues where he is available heading into Week 4. Arizona running back Emari Demercado could also play a role as the team's passing-downs back and could have some deep-league fantasy appeal.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver George Pickens was targeted nine times in Week 3, finishing with five catches for 68 yards and a touchdown in his team's 31-14 loss to the Chicago Bears. Pickens could be in for a significant target increase over the next few weeks with the news that top Dallas wideout CeeDee Lamb (ankle) suffered a high ankle sprain in Week 3. Pickens has now logged nine targets in back-to-back weeks, although it's worth noting that he could still be behind Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson in the target pecking order in Dallas. If Lamb cannot play in Week 4, Pickens would likely profile as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 4, even in a tough matchup against the Green Bay Packers.

Dynasty | Bengals quarterback Jake Browning completed 19-of-27 passes for 140 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions in a blowout loss to Minnesota. Dynasty Analysis: This was alarming as the Bengals were destroyed 48-10 and looked like a team that has given up after losing Joe Burrow. Browning himself was awful on the day and showed little to make anyone believe he can be an option in dynasty leagues, despite having talent all around him. This was about as bad as it gets.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris (Achilles) is expected to miss the rest of the season due to an injury sustained during Sunday's 23-20 win over the Denver Broncos, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Harris was lined up in the backfield when he suffered a non-contact Achilles injury in Week 3. He immediately went to the locker room and was ruled out. With Harris sidelined, rookie first-round pick Omarion Hampton will step in as the team's clear-cut RB1 and immediately work his way into the top-20 running backs to start in Week 4. Hassan Haskins projects to step into the No. 2 role. It was a tough season for Harris, as he was slowed down by an eye injury over the summer and now this injury. At 27 years old, Harris remains a hold in dynasty formats, but can be dropped in redraft leagues.
