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.

Hockenson caught all 13 of his targets for 119 yards in Sunday's 15-10 win over the Dolphins.

The veteran tight end emerged as Kyler Murray's favorite target in the absence of Justin Jefferson (ankle), and as a result Hockenson produced his first game with 100-plus yards since 2024, when he popped for a 7-114-0 line against the Bears in Week 12. Hockenson came into Sunday with just 76 receiving yards, so he could have trouble repeating the performance even if Jefferson misses another game, but Murray had success feeding the ball to Trey McBride last year with Arizona as well -- McBride posted a 29-275-1 line on 42 targets during the five games they were in the lineup together. Hockenson will look to keep rolling in a Week 5 road trip to New Orleans.

Herbert was 19-for-31 passing for 189 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions, took six carries for 40 yards and lost a fumble during Sunday's 30-23 loss in Seattle.

Herbert's three turnovers led directly to seven points for the Seahawks -- i.e. L.A.'s margin of defeat -- and he didn't reach the 200-yard threshold through the air for the second time in four contests this season. Having Ladd McConkey at less than 100 percent didn't help matters, and the team's top wide receiver appeared to aggravate an existing foot injury in the second half and didn't return to action. Herbert boasts just four touchdown passes versus six interceptions in 2026, and he may find difficulty achieving his first win of the campaign next Sunday against the Broncos.

Reichard went 5-for-5 on field-goal attempts during Sunday's 15-10 win over the Dolphins.

Reichard provided all of the offense for Minnesota in Week 4. The kicker made field goals of 47, 50 and 33 yards in the first half before later adding 41-yarder in the third quarter and a 29-yard make in the fourth quarter. Reichard has been perfect this season, going 12-for-12 on field-goal tries, including four makes from 50-plus yards, while converting all six of his PATs over four contests so far.

Fields caught two of three targets for 52 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 36-24 win over the Cardinals.

Fields has emerged as the Giants' clear WR3 in terms of routes, as he ran 22 routes to Malik Nabers' 30 and Darnell Mooney's 26 against Arizona. On the season, Fields has out-targeted Mooney 15 to 10. Fields caught a 12-yard score from Jameis Winston on Sunday and now has eight catches for 126 yards and the one score through four contests to begin his rookie season.

Kittle secured four of six targets for 70 yards and a touchdown in the 49ers' 24-14 win over the Broncos on Sunday.

Kittle was having an unremarkable day until just before the two-minute warning, when he brought in a tight-end screen from Brock Purdy, turned upfield and raced 56 yards to the end zone to extend what had been a thin 17-14 lead for the 49ers. Kittle finished second in receptions and receiving yards on the afternoon for San Francisco, while also tying for runner-up status in targets. Kittle now has at least 70 receiving yards in three straight games, affording him plenty of momentum heading into a Week 5 road matchup against the Seahawks next Sunday.
