  • Seahawks' Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Notches 76 receiving yards

    Smith-Njigba gathered in five of six targets for 76 yards during Sunday's 30-23 win against the Chargers.

    Smith-Njigba's 27-405-6 line on 36 targets through three games to kick off the campaign perhaps wasn't sustainable, but his Week 4 performance was nothing to sniff at considering he paced the Seahawks in targets among QB Sam Darnold's 22 pass attempts. Smith-Njigba put up at least as many receiving yards in 15 of his 17 regular-season appearances in 2025 as he did Sunday, so a bounceback seems likely when he next takes the field next Sunday versus the 49ers.

  • Packers' Matthew Golden: Records TD catch in win

    Golden brought in three of seven targets for 21 yards and a touchdown in the Packers' 17-14 win over the Buccaneers on Sunday. He also rushed once for six yards.

    Jordan Love threw for a modest 197 yards overall on the afternoon, so Golden's subdued production can be viewed within that context. The second-year speedster tied with Tucker Kraft for the team lead in targets on the afternoon, and although Golden brought in less than half of them. he recorded his second touchdown grab of the campaign on a two-yard reception early in the second quarter. Golden's reception and yardage totals were season lows, but he still on pace for a breakout second campaign with an 18-274-2 line going into a Week 5 home divisional matchup against the Bears next Sunday.

  • Chiefs' Kenneth Walker: Runs for 177 and two TDs in win

    Walker rushed 22 times for 177 yards and two touchdowns while catching his only target for two yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Raiders.

    Walker's two touchdowns came just 19 seconds apart in the fourth quarter, as he gave Kansas City the lead with a two-yard touchdown run and added a 22-yard touchdown run to create some breathing room after the Raiders fumbled the ensuing kickoff. The free-agent addition has paid immediate dividends for his new team, racking up 537 rushing yards and six total touchdowns through four games with the Chiefs. Walker has handled heavy workloads early in the season and will have a chance to rest up during a Week 5 bye before the 4-0 Chiefs host the Chargers in Week 6.

  • Emeka Egbuka WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Emeka Egbuka: Limited production in Week 4 loss

    Egbuka brought in two of four targets for 13 yards in the Buccaneers' 17-14 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

    Egbuka's production downturn was at least partly the result of Jalon Daniels' up-and-down NFL debut under center. The second-year wideout was third in targets and tied for third in receptions with multiple teammates on the afternoon, but only Egbuka's yardage total, which was a season low, only bested that of Kameron Johnson's (three yards) in the loss. Egbuka now has a 15-154-1 line on 24 targets over his first four games, and with Baker Mayfield reportedly in line to miss up to a total of seven weeks, the former will have to progressively build chemistry with Daniels to retain solid fantasy value.

  • Jake Elliott K | PHI

    Eagles' Jake Elliott: Makes all four kicks Sunday

    Elliott converted both field-goal attempts and both PATs in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Rams.

    Elliott made field goals from 29 and 56 yards against Los Angeles and remains perfect on the season. He has just four field goals through four games and is 9-for-9 on extra-point attempts. The Eagles aren't currently scoring enough on offense to warrant K1 valuation for Elliott.

  • Isaiah Likely TE | NYG

    Giants' Isaiah Likely: Team-high seven grabs in win over Cards

    Likely caught seven of 12 targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 36-24 win over Arizona.

    The targets and catches led the Giants on the day, but Likely's yardage total was well behind Malik Nabers' 112. Likely has remained an important part of the passing game with Jameis Winston under center instead of Jaxson Dart (knee), and in Winston's three appearances (two starts) the tight end has delivered a 14-112-0 line on 27 targets, seeing double-digit looks twice. Likely will look to find the end zone for the first time since the season opener in a Week 5 road clash with the Commanders.

  • Marques Sigle SAF | SF

    49ers' Marques Sigle: Dealing with ankle injury

    Sigle suffered an ankle injury during Sunday's 24-14 win over the Broncos.

    Sigle finished the game having recorded six total tackles (four solo), but he picked up an ankle injury along the way. The safety's status at the team's first practice of the week Wednesday will shed more light on his availability for Week 5 against the Seahawks.

  • Jameis Winston QB | NYG

    Giants' Jameis Winston: Clicks with Nabers in win over Cards

    Winston completed 18 of 29 passes for 250 yards and three touchdowns with two interceptions in Sunday's 36-24 win over Arizona.

    It was a classically erratic performance from the veteran QB, who now has a 3:3 TD:INT through three appearances and two starts in place of Jaxson Dart (knee). Winston began to build some encouraging chemistry with the Giants' No. 1 wideout Malik Nabers, who produced a season-best 6-112-1 line on seven targets fueled by a couple big gains, and his tendency to put the ball up for grabs downfield could continue to benefit both Nabers and rookie Malachi Fields, whose two catches went for a 12-yard TD and a 40-yard gain. Winston will try to produce more good moments than bad in a Week 5 road tilt against the Commanders.

  • Chris Godwin WR | TB

    Buccaneers' Chris Godwin: Six catches in Week 4 loss

    Godwin brought in six of seven targets for 31 yards in the Buccaneers' 17-14 loss to the Packers on Sunday.

    Godwin led the Buccaneers in receptions and targets while finishing second in receiving yards on the afternoon. The latter total was especially nothing to write home about, but it was the byproduct of rookie Jalon Daniels throwing for only 148 yards in his NFL debut. Godwin and the rest of the Buccaneers' air attack currently have fairly dim prospects while Daniels takes his initial lumps at the NFL level, and with Baker Mayfield unlikely to return before November per latest reports, the veteran receiver has limited fantasy value for the foreseeable future.

  • Cowboys' Brandon Aubrey: Misses two FGA in Week 4 win

    Aubrey went 2-for-4 on field-goal attempts and made all four PATs in Sunday's 34-30 win over the Texans.

    Both of Aubrey's misses were from long distance, as he had a 62-yard attempt blocked and a 65-yard try go wide left, both of which came in the second quarter. He did convert 39- and 50-yard tries. On the season, Aubrey is now 7-for-10 on field-goal tries and 12-for-13 on extra-point attempts. He'll remain a cinch K1 for Thursday's game against the Bucs.
