Jonnu Smith scores again in Week 3.

The rookie tight end scored his second touchdown in consecutive weeks, as he caught a wheel route for a 24-yard touchdown against the Seahawks. It looked to be a Cover 3 that Smith was wide open on for the easy touchdown. Smith is doing a great job as a rookie, but he’s not yet a fantasy option.

Chris Johnson gets 13 touches in Week 3.

The Cowboys did a good job of limiting the running game of the Cardinals, and Johnson was only able to pick up 17 yards on 12 carries while adding a four-yard reception. Meanwhile, Kerwynn Williams only received one carry in the game. Andre Ellington (five carries for 22 yards and five receptions for 59 yards) outplayed Johnson, but Johnson might still lead the backfield in Week 4.

Tyreek Hill catches 30-yard score in Week 3 win.

Hill caught five passes for 77 yards and the first-quarter touchdown, and also rushed three times for 13 yards. He was the only player to record more than 18 receiving yards, as Andy Reid continues to scheme him the ball. Hill will be in the WR2 conversation against the Redskins in Week 4 on Monday Night Football.

Rob Gronkowski leads the Patriots in receiving in Week 4.

Gronk caught four of five targets for 80 yards against the Panthers, including a long of 43 yards down the seam. As usual, Gronkowski looked like a beast the swallows up Tom Brady’s darts to his chest, and he should’ve had a bigger day if not for two penalties that probably should not have been called that brought back two other receptions. Gronk will be the top tight end option for Week 5 as the Pats face the Bucs on Thursday night.

Aaron Rodgers struggles early, bounces back to get overtime win against the Bengals.

Rodgers was 28/42 for 313 yards, three touchdowns, and one interception, which was a pick-six. He also rushed four times for 23 yards. Green Bay was down 21-7 at halftime, but Rodgers was able to bring them back, with the game-tying touchdown throw to Jordy Nelson with under 30 seconds left sending the game to overtime and a 72-yard pass in OT to Geronimo setting up the game-winning field goal. The Packers take on the Bears this Thursday night, and Rodgers is obviously an elite QB1.

Stephen Anderson catches both targets in Texans’ win.

Anderson had 28 yards on his two receptions, but he’s not on the fantasy radar right now.

DeAndre Hopkins grabs ten balls in Week 4.

Hopkins received a team-high 12 targets in the blowout win over Tennessee, gaining 107 yards on his ten receptions, including a touchdown on a quick post in the end zone. Texans head coach Bill O’Brien has made it clear they want to feed Hopkins the ball, and they are—which should be no surprise after his record-breaking contract during the preseason. Hopkins has at least seven receptions in each game, and he is on pace for 124 receptions for 1,244 yards and eight touchdowns through four games. Hopkins does have a tough matchup next week against the Chiefs, but he should still be in fantasy lineups unless you have a plethora of great options at WR.
