Murray completed 27 of 37 passes for 247 yards while adding 16 rushing yards on six carries in Sunday's 15-10 win over the Dolphins.

All of Minnesota's points came from the boot of Will Reichard, as Murray failed to lead the team into the end zone but also avoided committing any turnovers. With the defense playing at a high level, the veteran QB has been able to get away with a lack of production, but a 1:2 TD:INT through two-plus starts and little additional yardage on the ground may lead to some job security issues with Carson Wentz having proven he can run the offense effectively while Murray was sidelined with a concussion. The former Cardinal will try to find a rhythm during a Week 5 road trip to New Orleans.

Lutz went 2-for-3 on field-goal attempts in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the 49ers.

Lutz made a 52-yard field goal in the first quarter and later added a 40-yard make in the fourth quarter. The kicker did miss his final kick of the day, pushing a 58-yard field-goal try wide right with 1:18 left in regulation. Lutz has missed a field-goal attempt in back-to-back games, and he's now gone 5-for-7 on field-goal tries, including 2-for-4 from 50-plus yards, over four contests during the regular season.

Gadsden secured five of eight targets for 36 yards and recorded a two-yard carry during Sunday's 30-23 defeat in Seattle.

With position mates David Njoku (fibula) on IR and Charlie Kolar (forearm) sidelined the last two contests, Gadsden has had uneven results, posting a bagel on three targets in Week 3 at Buffalo before Sunday's season-best performance. Gadsden likely was helped this week by the early exit of No. 1 WR Ladd McConkey (foot), but the former's efficiency (9.5 YPC, 5.7 YPT) has been lacking in a floundering Chargers offense so far this season. In any case, for as long as Njoku and Kolar are out of the lineup, Gadsden shouldn't have a problem leading the team's TEs in most receiving categories.

The Chiefs reached out to Hill's (knee) agent Sunday, Mike Silver of The Athletic reports.

Kansas City lost Rashee Rice (hamstring) and Tyquan Thornton (ankle) to injuries in Sunday's win over the Raiders, depleting the team's wideout depth. Thornton suffered a long-term injury, while the severity of Rice's hamstring issue is uncertain. Provided he's back somewhere close to his normal self, Hill would be a logical replacement for deep-threat Thornton.

Dicker went 3-for-3 on field-goal attempts and made both of his PATs during Sunday's 30-23 loss to Seattle.

Dicker made field goals from 40 and 39 yards in the first half before converting a 36-yarder late in the fourth quarter. The kicker had missed a field-goal try in each of the last two games entering Week 4, but he was able to get back on track against the Seahawks. Dicker has now gone 6-for-8 on field-goal attempts while making all seven of his extra-point tries over four contests this year.

Dobbins rushed 11 times for 40 yards and brought in both targets for 12 yards in the Broncos' 24-14 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

Dobbins functioned in his usual lead-back role, but the Broncos eventually had to focus more on the pass in the fourth quarter after falling behind by a 17-6 margin. The veteran back has logged double-digit carries in three straight games, yet he's topped out at 49 rushing yards in terms of a single-game high thus far this season. Dobbins is averaging just 3.5 yards per carry and has a scant three receptions for 16 yards over the first four games, which doesn't give him much momentum as he heads into a Week 5 road divisional matchup against the Chargers.

Allgeier rushed eight times for 42 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-24 loss to the Giants. He added two catches for seven yards on two targets.

After Jeremiyah Love appeared to distance himself from Allgeier in Week 3 against the 49ers, Allgeier ended up out-snapping the rookie running back against the Giants. Love out-carried Allgeier 14 to eight Sunday, but it was Allgeier who found the end zone with a 22-yard score in the first quarter to give Arizona a 14-3 lead. Through four games, Allgeier has rushed 32 times for 112 yards and a touchdown, adding 10 catches for 35 yards on 10 targets. Splitting time with Love, Allgeier is touchdown-or-bust fantasy option most weeks.

Mitchell tallied 10 carries for 39 yards and five catches (on six targets) for 24 yards during Sunday's 30-23 defeat at Seattle.

Mitchell surprisingly led the Chargers backfield in touches with 15, ahead of Omarion Hampton's 11 and Kimani Vidal's seven, but unlike his position mates he didn't reach the end zone. Because Mitchell's touch count has increased in each successive week this season, he's trending in a positive direction, but until one of the trio is handling most of the RB reps, it'll be difficult to trust any of them for fantasy purposes on a weekly basis. He next takes the field next Sunday against the Broncos.

Gay went 4-for-4 on field-goal attempts and made his only extra-point try during Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Chiefs.

Gay continued his perfect start to the year, converting a season-high four field-goals tries. The kicker made field goals from 32 and 48 yards in the second quarter and later added makes from 44 and 48 yards in the fourth quarter. Gay has now gone 10-for-10 on field-goal tries while converting all nine of his PATs over four contests this season.

Nix completed 25 of 42 passes for 214 yards with one touchdown and no interceptions while rushing twice for 10 yards in the Broncos' 24-14 loss to the 49ers on Sunday.

Nix finished with a serviceable passing line, but he averaged only 5.1 yards per attempt and wasn't able to overcome a second-half deficit as was the case in Week 3 against the Rams. The third-year signal-caller lost talented second-year wideout Pat Bryant to an ankle injury during the contest, and he found his greatest success when targeting RJ Harvey, who was on the receiving end of 10 of his completions. Nix has just a 60.0 percent completion rate and a modest 25 rushing yards through four games, but he may have a chance to boost those numbers against a winless Chargers team on the road in Week 5.
