Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs runs the most routes for the Packers in most weeks, but we'll see if it translates into fantasy scoring as the Packers take on the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4. Doubs has run routes on 81.8 percent of quarterback Jordan Love's dropbacks this season, the most on the Packers for any pass-catcher. Unfortunately, that's resulted in just seven receptions for 121 yards and a touchdown through three weeks of this season. As fantasy football's WR55 heading into Week 4, Doubs is just a routes-based floor play, minus a lot of the floor. Passing volume concerns and the fact that Green Bay spreads the football around aren't great for fantasy production despite a strong Packers' offense. Against one of the leakiest pass defenses in Dallas, sit the Packers' top route-runner Doubs in Week 4.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks could be the beneficiary of a great matchup when the Packers travel down to AT&T Stadium as Green Bay squares off with the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4. Wicks saw his routes increase with Jayden Reed (clavicle, foot) out of the lineup. Seeing just four targets and catching just two balls for 21 yards out of the slot for the Packers, Wicks had a tough matchup like everybody else did against the Browns in Week 3. For Week 4, that matchup becomes a lot easier as the Dallas Cowboys represent one of the worst pass defenses in the NFL. Because the Packers are so spread out on offense and the pass volume is limited, Wicks is merely a low-end flex play in Week 4 despite the great matchup on deck.

Green Bay Packers kicker Brandon McManus looks to shake off the blocked kick with under a minute left in Week 3 and bounce back as the Packers head to Dallas to play the Cowboys in Week 4. McManus didn't get too many opportunities in Week 3 with the Packers only scoring one touchdown, but he did make a 39-yard field goal, and his 43-yard attempt was blocked, which would have given the Packers a 13-10 lead. Instead, the Browns moved into field goal range themselves and booted home a game-winning field goal. The Packers are an excellent offense, but that doesn't always translate into giving the kicker a lot of runway for fantasy scoring each week. In a matchup like this against the Cowboys in Week 4, McManus enters the streaming kicker conversation as somebody who could get some volume in a controlled, indoor environment like AT&T Stadium.

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Michael Mayer (concussion) has officially been ruled out for the Week 4 game this Sunday against the Chicago Bears, according to Ryan McFadden of ESPN. Mayer suffered a concussion in the Week 3 loss to the Washington Commanders last Sunday and was unable to practice all week. The 24-year-old will look to clear the league's concussion protocol next week and play in Week 5 against the Indianapolis Colts. Mayer will remain involved in the Raiders' offense when he's healthy, but he can't realistically be considered a starting fantasy option with Brock Bowers soaking up heavy targets in front of him. Through three weeks, Mayer has only six catches on seven targets for 47 yards and no touchdowns. Bowers should have a bounce-back game in Week 4 against Chicago against a soft Bears defense with Mayer out.

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert only had one catch against the Rams, but it was for a 33-yard touchdown. Even in a game with minimal looks (he managed just two targets), Goedert was able to produce a decent fantasy day. The lack of production is slightly worrisome, but in this Philly offense, it feels like they're taking turns on who gets to have a big game. In Week 4, Goedert matches up against a Buccaneers defense allowing the sixth-least points to tight ends in fantasy this year. He's still one of Jalen Hurts' favorite end zone targets and could lead his team in yards on any given gameday. And, after playing 91% of snaps last week, it seems like he's fully recovered from his knee injury. Goedert should be looked at as a low-end TE1 this weekend.

Philadelphia Eagles kicker Jake Elliott hit all three of his extra point attempts last week against the Rams, but did not try any field goals. The Philly offense started off slow against Los Angeles, going three-and-out on four straight drives in the first half then following that up with a fumble on their second play in the third quarter. It was uncharacteristic for this team and Elliott is still yet to miss a kick this season. Fantasy managers should continue to rely on him as he enters a Week 4 contest against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

As the Minnesota Vikings' lead back, Jordan Mason should be viewed as a high-end RB2 and a starting option when his team takes on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 4. With Aaron Jones (hamstring) on injured reserve and unable to play, Mason will be the top option out of the Minnesota backfield until at least Week 7, and possibly longer given his effectiveness so far. The first-year Viking surpassed 100 yards and scored twice last week as the No. 1 back, and now he takes on a Pittsburgh defense that ranks 19th in yards per attempt allowed and 31st in missed tackles. Now that Minnesota has other key pieces like left tackle Christian Darrisaw (knee) and receiver Jordan Addison (suspension) back in action, Mason should have a starring role in an offense on the rise.

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson saw his role shift quite a bit in Week 3 and looks to keep that role as the Packers head to Dallas to take on the Cowboys in Week 4. In recent weeks, the work behind starter Josh Jacobs has gone to Chris Brooks, as he's been a better receiving back, pass protector and outlet for quarterback Jordan Love. However, Wilson doubled Brooks' snaps in Week 3 and earned six carries against a tough Cleveland Browns' front. Wilson has had this role behind Jacobs for most of last season and looks to have that role once again going forward. For Week 4, you're leaving Wilson well away from your starting lineups in fantasy, but if something were to happen to Jacobs, Wilson would likely get the first crack at meaningful touches in this strong Packers' offense.

Coming off a successful Minnesota Vikings debut, quarterback Carson Wentz has some low-end QB2 potential as Minnesota prepares to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 4. Wentz delivered a solid blueprint in his first game, leaning on the Vikings' running game and being efficient through the air, completing 14 of 20 passes for 173 yards and two touchdowns. The Steelers have been among the league's worst defenses against fantasy quarterbacks, ranking 25th in passing yards allowed, 31st in missed tackles, and 29th in air yards allowed. Turnovers often have been the issue for Wentz during his career, but if can replicate his most recent game, he can be an acceptable fill-in for managers in a bind this week.

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (knee/elbow) is officially off the injury report and does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's contest against the Dallas Cowboys. Kraft suffered this knee injury leading up to their game last weekend against the Cleveland Browns. While he was able to suit up, Kraft did not make a significant impact on the score sheet, catching just three of his four targets for 29 yards. This week, Kraft remained limited on Wednesday and Thursday but was able to log a full session during Friday's final practice. Despite his quiet showing last weekend, Kraft enjoyed a career outing in Week 2, catching six passes for 124 yards and a score. Given his role as a top target for Jordan Love, Kraft carries high-end must-start TE1 value facing the Cowboys.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Matthew Golden looks to continue his forward momentum in terms of utilization when the Packers head to Dallas to take on the Cowboys on Sunday Night Football in Week 4. Golden's first three games in the NFL have drawn mixed reviews from fantasy managers who drafted him in the middle rounds. Through three games, Golden has a combined eight targets, six receptions, and 68 receiving yards, with most of that coming in his best game to date in Week 3, where he caught four balls for 52 yards. He ran routes on 84 percent of quarterback Jordan Love's dropbacks and earned 22 percent of the first-read targets as well. To say Golden has been a disappointment is fair, but his role is growing. Golden could keep his ramp-up going in a great matchup against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 4, but we need to remember that Golden has a shockingly low fantasy floor. That said, Golden is an upside flex play for fantasy managers in Week 4.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen should be kept out of starting lineups when his team takes on the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday in Ireland. Now that receiver Jordan Addison (suspension) is back in the fold, Thielen is likely to see a significant decrease in snaps. Even with high snap rates in the first three weeks, Thielen caught a meager two passes. At this point, it's fair to wonder if he'll earn more snaps or targets than fellow receiver Jalen Nailor, to say nothing of Addison, top receiver Justin Jefferson, and tight end T.J. Hockenson. Given his lack of production and his situation on the depth chart, Thielen can be sent to waiver wires in standard redraft leagues.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Darius Cooper did not record any stats in a 33-26 win over the Los Angeles Rams. Cooper also saw a decrease in snaps, being on the field for only six offensive plays in Week 3 after playing 12 the previous game. The undrafted rookie will have to wait another week before hopefully making his first catch of the season. Cooper is still not an option for fantasy lineups as he lines up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers this Sunday.

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson should be viewed as a top-five option this week when taking on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Ireland. The All-Pro put up a steady five catches for 75 yards a week ago in spite of the Vikings being ahead by so much in the second half against Cincinnati that they had little incentive to throw. With a more competitive game likely on tap this week, Jefferson turns his attention to a Steelers defense that has given up the seventh-most passing yards per game. Though Minnesota is playing with backup quarterback Carson Wentz, Jefferson has put up numbers with a variety of quarterbacks over the years, so his game-breaking talent should be locked into fantasy lineups, per usual.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (ankle) was removed from the injury report after three limited practices, and he's good to go for the Packers' Week 4 showdown against the Dallas Cowboys. In Week 3, Jacobs broke his streak of 10 consecutive games where he scored a touchdown in the regular season, as he was bottled up by the Cleveland Browns. Relying on pure volume this season, Jacobs has been a tad disappointing for fantasy, with 3.1 yards per carry on the season as the current RB19 and displaying little of the efficiency that fantasy managers expect from a player that was drafted in the early third round of drafts. Despite touchdowns in the first two contests, Jacobs has not finished higher than RB18 this season. Even with a good matchup on deck with the Packers heading to Dallas to play the Cowboys, Jacobs should be in lineups, but profiles as more of a high-end fantasy RB2 than a locked-in RB1 in Week 4.

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs (ankle) is off the injury report and does not carry a designation into Sunday's contest against the Dallas Cowboys. The top running back in Green Bay remained a limited participant during the entire week but was able to avoid an injury designation. It appears the team was closely monitoring his workload. As a result, fantasy managers should expect the 27-year-old to continue to dominate the opportunities out of the backfield. Through three games this season, Jacobs has seen 19.3 rushing attempts per game and averaged 60.0 rushing yards per game with 13.6 PPR points per game. He should remain the primary workhorse and carries high-end RB2 value facing the Cowboys on Sunday night.

Nobody on the Minnesota Vikings benefitted more from the presence of quarterback Carson Wentz than tight end T.J. Hockenson, who should be considered a high-end TE2 against the Pittsburgh Steelers this week. The former Iowa Hawkeye caught five balls for 49 yards and a touchdown in Minnesota's rout of Cincinnati last week, and now takes on a Steelers defense in the bottom five against fantasy tight ends. The Vikings, however, will see the return of receiver Jordan Addison (suspension) alongside top target Justin Jefferson, and are still ultimately playing with a backup quarterback, making Hockenson's role in the offense somewhat unclear. The veteran was a non-factor in the first two games before last week's success, so while there is certainly a pathway to another good game, managers should be cautious that Hockenson could be on the back burner if the Vikings lean mostly on their receivers.

Houston Texans wide receiver Nico Collins (knee) is off the injury report and good to go for Sunday's contest against the Tennessee Titans. Collins was listed as a limited participant during the team's initial session on Wednesday. However, Collins was able to log back-to-back full practices and avoided carrying an injury designation. After catching only three passes for 25 yards in the season opener, the star wideout has begun to find his footing. In Week 2, Collins brought in three of his nine targets for 52 yards and a score. Then in Week 3, Collins caught eight passes for 104 yards and his second touchdown of the season. Even though the Houston offense has stumbled through the opening month, Collins should continue to see a massive target share and remains a must-start WR1 this weekend.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Will Shipley (oblique) was listed as a full participant on the team's Friday injury report and appears ready to return to game action this weekend against the Buccaneers. This comes after Shipley missed Philly's last two contests with an oblique injury suffered against the Cowboys. In his absence, fellow back A.J. Dillon has seen minimal action, with three carries in Week 2 and none the week after. Tank Bigsby is still yet to record an offensive stat with his new team. In his last appearance, Shipley had just three carries as Saquon Barkley's understudy. So, it seems unlikely that his comeback will change much, and he'll continue to be used sparingly. He's a decent handcuff to keep on standby, but otherwise Shipley should not see fantasy lineups in Week 4.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown finally got into his stride with a team-leading performance in Week 3, and looks to carry that momentum into a Sunday matchup against the Buccaneers. Last week, Tampa Bay let Garrett Wilson grab 10 catches for 84 yards and a touchdown, which makes this game look even more promising for Philly's number one wideout. Brown has 18 targets over his last two outings, which makes his woeful Week 1 statline look more and more like a fluke. While the Bucs defense is allowing the 12th-least points to opposing wideouts in fantasy this season, still consider Brown a low-end WR1 this week.
