Jonathan Stewart (foot) is out for Week 4.

The veteran running back is off the fantasy radar, but he’s a good presence in New York’s backfield. Wayne Gallman will likely handle all of the backfield touches when Saquon Barkley takes a break against the Saints this weekend.

Adam Thielen again goes over 100 yards in Vikings’ loss.

Thielen had another exceptional game to open the season, as he caught eight-of-12 targets for 135 yards and a touchdown against the Rams. The score came out a 45-yard pass right down the seam, where Thielen was basically wide-open. With this 100-yard effort, Thielen became the third player since 1970 to have 100 receiving yards in each of the first four games of the season, joining Randy Moss and Isaac Bruce. Through four games, Thielen is on pace for 160 receptions, 1,892 yards, and eight touchdowns.

Charles Clay (shoulder/hip) is listed as questionable for Week 4.

Clay was limited, non-participant, and limited in Buffalo’s three practices this week, and he might be a true game-time call. However, the veteran tight end has a history of playing through injuries, so we expect he’ll be out there. Clay’s status will be known by 11:30 AM ET on Sunday.

Todd Gurley totals 156 yards in 38-31 win over the Vikings.

Gurley rushed 17 times for 83 yards and caught four passes for 73 yards and a score in the victory. It was a strong start for Gurley with a touchdown on the team’s opening possession, but Jared Goff basically took over the game after that by getting 100-yard days out of Brandin Cooks, Robert Woods, and Cooper Kupp. Still, the superstar back was able to pickup consistent yardage when his number was called, and Gurley is now on pace for 2,128 total yards and 24 total touchdowns through four games. He is obviously a high-end RB1 in all formats in Week 5 against the Seahawks.

Darren Sproles (hamstring) has officially been ruled out for Week 4.

Earlier this week, Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said he expected Sproles to return to the lineup this week, but the return will have to wait. Consider the veteran running back week-to-week at this point.

Latavius Murray gets four touches against the Rams.

Dalvin Cook received only ten touches in the game, but the Vikings had a very pass-heavy approach, which didn’t lead to many opportunities for Murray behind him. Murray had two carries for two yards and two receptions for 16 yards in the loss. He also did well in pass protection, but that obviously didn’t help fantasy owners. The running game isn’t coming along well enough for Murray to be a FLEX option right now.

Corey Clement (quad) is listed as questionable for Week 4.

This is likely to be the same scenario as last week, when Clement was listed as questionable before playing Sunday. However, perhaps the return of Jay Ajayi (back) will lead the Eagles to want to sit out Clement so that he can get fully healthy from his quad issue. Check back in on Sunday morning for Clement’s official game status.
