Minnesota Vikings rookie running back Zavier Scott made his presence felt in the team's 48-10 blowout win over the Cincinnati Bengals. Scott logged eight carries for 30 yards and added a 20-yard reception, playing 28% of the snaps in Week 3. With veteran Aaron Jones sidelined by a hamstring injury, Scott helped fill the void and looked comfortable in his role. The rookie flashed upside in the preseason, totaling 157 scrimmage yards on 27 touches across three games, and he now appears to have taken the RB2 role behind starter Jordan Mason. While Mason remains the clear workhorse, Scott's growing involvement makes him a player to keep an eye on. From a fantasy perspective, Scott is not yet a must-add, but he's on the radar in deeper leagues as his role continues to expand.

The Indianapolis Colts coaching staff is putting faith in second-year wide receiver Adonai Mitchell. A 2024 second-round pick, Mitchell struggled as a rookie, catching just 23 of 55 targets for 312 yards and failing to score a touchdown. Offensive coordinator Jim Bob Cooter expressed confidence in his development, saying, "When AD's number is called, AD is going to be ready for action." Mitchell could see a bigger role this week with Alec Pierce in the concussion protocol. Last season, Pierce missed one game, during which Mitchell played 89% of the snaps (his second-highest total of the year) but managed only one target that went for 36 yards. If Pierce is sidelined, Mitchell would likely slide into the WR3 role and could become a factor in the Colts' passing attack. For fantasy purposes, Mitchell remains off the radar outside of deep leagues, but his situation is worth monitoring if Pierce misses significant time.

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver KaVontae Turpin caught two of his three targets for 64 yards while adding a rush for four yards in their 31-14 blowout loss to the Bears. Turpin saw more action in this game after CeeDee Lamb left with an injury. He ran 70% of the routes, which was third on the team behind Jalen Tolbert and George Pickens. Turpin made a tough catch after taking a big hit for an explosive gain down the sideline and has plenty of speed to threaten the defense vertically. Most of his usage last year came as a ball-in-hand guy with screens and underneath passes. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer could opt to incorporate that more with their best YAC threat, Lamb, who will be sidelined for a few games. That gives Turpin some short-term appeal in deeper leagues to see how the receiver usage shakes out.

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson rushed for 28 yards on a team-most 11 carries during Sunday's Week 3 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. While the rookie was incredibly inefficient, he was still trusted as the primary option out of the backfield after Rhamondre Stevenson lost two fumbles and Antonio Gisbon and Drake Maye each fumbled once. Henderson's ball security made up for his lack of efficiency, and given that Stevenson's fumbling issues are nothing new, the second-round pick may be in line to lead the backfield once again in Week 4. His 46 percent snap share last Sunday paints a picture of what his usage might look like next week. Fantasy managers will want to see his yards per carry and red-zone usage both increase before trusting him in lineups, but on a positive note, his ball security, pass catching, and blocking have all been quite dependable. He's trending upward and ranks as a fringe top-36 fantasy running back for this week's clash with Carolina.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Davante Adams continues to produce at a high level despite vying for opportunities alongside a star-studded group of teammates, including Kyren Williams and Puka Nacua. Adams caught three of his eight targets for 56 yards in Week 3, making up for his low reception total with modest yardage and a big score. He now has 213 yards and two touchdowns this season, ranking as the overall WR14 in PPR leagues. At the same time, Williams is the overall RB15 and Nacua is the overall WR1, so it's not like Adams has the show all to himself. Nevertheless, the talented veteran receiver is producing at a high level within a strong offense during his age-32 season. He remains in must-start territory for the rest of the season, regardless of matchup. A potential shootout against the Eagles in Week 4 bodes well for Adams' fantasy value.

New England Patriots wide receiver Stefon Diggs has seen his snap share increase every week so far. However, his target, reception, and yardage totals have declined every week. To this point, the more he's on the field, the less he has been involved. This is unlikely to continue going forward, as his playing time and volume should start to balance out. Nevertheless, his fantasy value has been somewhat underwhelming, as he ranks as the overall WR58 in PPR leagues through three weeks. He caught just three passes for 23 yards last Sunday, and things won't get any easier for him in Week 4 against a Panthers defense that just shut out the Falcons. Diggs is worth scooping up off the waiver wire given his consistency and veteran presence, but it's hard to justify starting him in leagues with 14 teams or fewer.

New England Patriots wide receiver Kayshon Boutte led the position groups last Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, getting on the field for 56 snaps, which equated to a 76 percent snap share. Boutte saw the field for at least 10 snaps more than each of his fellow receivers, and the only pass-catcher who out-snapped him was tight end Hunter Henry. Despite playing more than three quarters of the snaps this season, the LSU product has failed to replicate the Week 1 showing in which he caught six passes for 103 yards. Over his last two games combined, he has just three catches on four targets, though he did add a touchdown along the way. Boutte's snap share suggests he should be a low-end WR3/flex option, but his volume and production indicate that he should be left on the bench. For now, managers should oblige and leave the 23-year-old on the bench in most fantasy leagues. However, his ability to get on the field does spark some optimism.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers completed 16 of 23 passes for 139 yards with two touchdowns and one interception in Sunday's 21-14 win over the Patriots. It was a low-play volume day for the Steeers, running only 49 plays to the Patriots' 71. Rodgers checked down to running back Jaylen Warren most often, leading the team with six targets. But he did find both top wide receiver options in D.K. Metcalf and Calvin Austin III for touchdowns. He's established a solid connection with Austin in the early going, and he could be a valuable piece for them to help generate explosive plays. The upside for Rodgers with the Pittsburgh offense is not interesting enough for fantasy purposes, and he is best left on the waiver wire in standard redraft leagues and viewed as a low-end QB2 in superflex leagues.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Carson Wentz completed 14 of 20 passes for 173 yards and two touchdowns while adding two rushes for four yards in Minnesota's 48-10 rout of the Bengals. He also took three sacks for a loss of 19 yards. Wentz made his first non-Week 18 start since New Year's Day in 2023 with the Washington Commanders, when he had one of the worst games of his career, throwing for only 143 yards and tying a career high of three interceptions in a 24-10 loss to the Browns that essentially eliminated Washington from the playoffs. Wentz managed the offense well in this game; however, targeting Justin Jefferson most often and finding tight end T.J. Hockenson for a touchdown to get him going. There will inevitably be some frustrating moments with Wentz, but he will be able to operate Kevin O'Connell's offense at a competent level with the assortment of weapons at his disposal, plus Jordan Addison returning from suspension in Week 4. There's a chance he keeps it for the rest of the season if he plays well and the winning continues. He should be viewed as a priority pickup in most superflex leagues.

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Elic Ayomanor hauled in four of his five targets for 38 yards and a touchdown in their 41-20 loss to the Colts on Sunday. Ayomanor continues a productive start to his NFL career with five targets in each game and scoring again after his highlight first touchdown last week. He tied veteran Calvin Ridley for the team lead in targets in Week 1 with seven, tied Ridley and Chig Okonkwo in Week 2 with six, and then dropped down slightly to third against Indianapolis behind Okonkwo and Ridley with five. So the fourth-round rookie is running a full number of routes and earning volume right out of the gate. There is a lot to like with Ayomanor's start in the NFL and his prospect profile, putting him in the WR3/WR4 range with some upside moving forward, but Tennessee's offense will likely continue to struggle moving the ball.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten scored a touchdown for the second straight week in his team's 17-10 Week 3 win over the Houston Texans. The 23-year-old finished the game with six carries for 21 yards and a score, and has now logged 106 yards from scrimmage and two touchdowns on 19 total touches this season. Tuten remains behind veteran running back Travis Etienne Jr. in the Jaguars' backfield pecking order. Still, Tuten has consistently flashed high-end upside and may be able to steal touches away from Etienne Jr. as the season progresses. Tuten should be rostered in all league formats, and he profiles as a low-end RB3/flex option in Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers.

From RotoBaller

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt logged 10 carries for 34 yards and a touchdown in his team's 22-9 Week 3 win over the New York Giants. Hunt has rushed for 81 yards and a touchdown on 23 carries this season, adding four catches for 23 yards on five targets as well. While the 30-year-old has not been efficient on a per-touch basis, he could still be slowly stealing a larger share of the workload from Chiefs running back Isaiah Pacheco. Over the last two weeks, Hunt has recorded 20 touches, compared to 22 for Pacheco. Hunt may not have a ton of fantasy upside, but he should be rostered in deep leagues. In a tough Week 4 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens, both Chiefs' backs profile as low-end RB3/flex options.

Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson was targeted a whopping 14 times in his team's Week 3 loss to the Chicago Bears, hauling in 13 catches for 82 yards. Ferguson now has 27 catches for 183 yards on 32 targets through his first three games of 2025. With star Dallas wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (ankle) potentially facing a multi-week absence due to a high ankle sprain, Ferguson should be expected to maintain a sizable role in the Cowboys' passing game. The 26-year-old faces a tough matchup in the Green Bay Packers' defense in Week 4. Still, Ferguson profiles as a must-start tight end and is a priority waiver wire target in any league where he remains available.

Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Darnell Mooney drew 11 targets in Sunday's 30-0 loss to the Panthers, three more than No. 1 receiver Drake London. Unfortunately, he was onlyable to haul in four of those targets, tallying 44 yards in the process and no scores. The 27-year-old's involvement is encouraging, but it seems that after three weeks, Michael Penix Jr.'s efficiency (47.9 QBR - 20th) and short passes (6.1 yards per attempt - 24th) are going to limit the entire receivingcorps in terms of receptions, yardage, and touchdowns, at least in the short term. On occasion last season, Mooney outtargetedLondon, but he earned double-digit targets just one time in 16 games played (compared to eight times for London), so this typeof target share should not be expected goingforward. Nevertheless, it appears the Tulane product is fully healthy after missing Week 1 with a shoulder injury, and he should settle in as an every-week PPR Flex option at a minimum. The 5-foot-11 wideout gets a favorable home matchup in Week 4 against the Commanders in what should be a competitive game, as Washington is only 1.5-point favorites early in the week.

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 19 of 33 pass attempts for 196 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception in his team's 33-26 Week 3 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The 37-year-old is off to a solid start to his 2025 season, completing 66.3% of his passes for 739 yards, five touchdowns, and two interceptions through three games. Stafford's complete lack of rushing ability limits his fantasy upside. Still, he's averaging over 30 pass attempts per game while piloting a Rams offense that can put up points in bunches. Stafford is worth rostering in all two-quarterback formats, and profiles as a low-end QB2 heading into his Week 4 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts.

From RotoBaller

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet was targeted just once in his team's Week 3 win over the Dallas Cowboys, but he made it count with a 10-yard touchdown grab. Kmet now has four catches for 70 yards and a touchdown on seven targets through the first three games of 2025. Perhaps most importantly for Kmet's fantasy outlook, Bears rookie tight end Colston Loveland (hip) suffered a hip injury in Week 3. Loveland's injury is not considered serious, and he reportedly has a chance to play in Week 4 against the Las Vegas Raiders. Still, Kmet could be a low-end streaming option in deep leagues in Week 4 if Loveland is sidelined.

Seattle Seahawks rookie tight end Elijah Arroyo (groin) was deemed limited for the team's walkthrough on Tuesday ahead of its Week 4 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals on Thursday night. Arroyo has just three catches for 38 yards on five targets through the first three games of his NFL career. Arroyo is behind AJ Barner on the tight end depth chart in Seattle, and third-stringer Eric Saubert could be in line for more playing time if Arroyo is unable to play on Thursday. Even if Arroyo is good to go in Week 4, he should remain off of fantasy radars.

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (foot) was listed as a full participant for the second straight day this week on Tuesday's estimated injury report, according to John Boyle of Seahawks.com. Charbonnet missed the team's Week 3 blowout win over the visiting New Orleans Saints on Sunday with a foot injury, but he appears to be on track to return despite a short turnaround in Week 4 for a divisional clash against the Arizona Cardinals on Thursday night. The 24-year-old was unable to practice at all last week. Charbonnet's status on Wednesday will be worth watching. If he's able to return this week, it will be bad news for Kenneth Walker III's upside. In the first two games of the year, Walker and Charbonnet were involved in a timeshare. The former second-rounder has averaged just 2.1 yards per carry on 27 rushing attempts for 57 yards and a touchdown. If Charb is active on Thursday night, he'll be in play as an RB3/flex in fantasy lineups.

The New York Jets announced on Tuesday that they placed linebacker Quincy Williams (shoulder) on Injured Reserve. Williams injured his shoulder in the first half of the Week 3 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and was unable to return. The 29-year-old will now be forced to miss at least four games, and he will not be eligible to play again for the Jets until Week 8 on the road versus the Cincinnati Bengals. The Jets also placed Marcelino McCrary-Ball (hamstring) on IR. Williams, a former third-rounder by the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2019 out of Murray State, will now have a tough time recording 100-plus combined tackles for the fifth straight season in 2025. He had 15 tackles (eight solo), 1.5 sacks, and two pass breakups for the Jets in the first three games this year.

Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said that cornerback Darius Slay (leg) has a "leg contusion" and was in and out of the Week 3 win over the New England Patriots on Sunday. The injury may limit Slay in practice this week, but Tomlin expects him to be available for the Week 4 tilt this Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. The 34-year-old should be able to suit up for this weekend's international game in Dublin, Ireland, but it's possible he won't play every defensive snap like he did the first two weeks of the season. The six-time Pro Bowler and former All-Pro has 10 solo tackles, two pass breakups, and a fumble recovery in his first three games with the Steelers in 2025. Pittsburgh's defense was uncharacteristically sloppy in the first two weeks before turning it around a bit in last week's win over the Pats. They'll look to keep it going in Ireland against Vikings veteran quarterback Carson Wentz.
