James Conner looks good on limited touches.

Conner rushed four times for 26 yards, but Le’Veon Bell dominated touches for Pittsburgh in the win. The rookie back is just a handcuff at this point, but arguably the best one around. The Steelers will host the Jaguars in Week 5.

Joe Mixon operates as workhorse in Bengals’ loss to Green Bay.

Mixon handled 21 touches, rushing 18 times for 62 yards and catching three passes for 39 yards. It didn’t take long for new OC Bill Lazor to feature his best running back, and the Bengals easily had their best offensive game of the season because of it. Hopefully you didn’t trade Mixon after a slow start, as the rookie is suddenly a solid RB2 with room to grow. He could explode against the Browns next Sunday.

Le’Veon Bell finally explodes in Steelers’ win.

Bell rushed 35 times for 144 yards and two touchdowns and caught four passes for 42 yards. It was a monster game that fantasy owners have become accustomed to over the past few years, as Le’Veon handled 88.7% of the running back touches for Pittsburgh. He’s still just averaging 3.7 yards per carry, but Bell is now on pace for 1,296 yards and 12 touchdowns on the ground. The superstar back should increase his 392-yard receiving pace. He’s a high-end RB1 for Week 5 against Jacksonville.

Kenyan Drake gets three touches in Week 4.

Drake had a six-yard carry and two receptions for four yards. The second-year back did also have a nice run of about 15 yards that was called back by a penalty. Drake isn’t a fantasy option with Jay Ajayi as the clear lead guy in Miami’s backfield.

Ty Montgomery (wrist) practice fully today.

If there was any doubt, he’s ready to go for Thursday night against the Bears. Get Montgomery in your lineup as a great RB1.

Kenny Golladay caught two passes for 25 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Falcons.

Detroit threw it 45 times, but Atlanta held Matthew Stafford to just 25 completions for 264 yards. Golladay continues to split time with T.J. Jones behind Marvin Jones and Golden Tate, so despite his talent, he’s tough to trust in lineups, especially in Week 4 against the Vikings.

Case Keenum makes third straight start in Vikings’ loss.

Keenum filled in for Sam Bradford again, going 16/30 for 219 yards in a tough defensive game against the Lions. Bradford might be back for Week 5 on Monday night versus Chicago, but Keenum wouldn’t be a recommended fantasy option even if he plays again.
