2026 NFL Draft

It was only three catches, but it was a reminder that Horton looked like he was on his way to being a relevant player before his injuries as a rookie last year. With Cooper Kupp no longer close to an elite option and Rashid Shaheed a non-factor thus far, one can’t help but wonder if Horton will get more opportunities now that he’s healthy. Fantasy managers should at least keep an eye on him, but shouldn’t have him in a lineup for Week 4 against the Chargers.

With Mason Taylor and Adonai Mitchell out this week, Frank Reich treated Sadiq as his No. 2 receiver and the results were marvelous. Sadiq scored his first career receiving touchdown on a 24-yard diving grab into the end zone in the second quarter. He appeared to get banged up as he hit the ground and was slow to get up, but the first-round rookie eventually shook it off and remained productive in the second half. Sadiq’s role could take a hit if either Mitchell or Taylor is back next week, but it’s hard to imagine the team scaling things back all that much after this breakout performance. Sadiq will flirt with a TE1 ranking when he takes on the Bears in Week 4.

The Chargers were missing two starting interior linemen and decided that running up the gut was not going to work for them. Understandably so. Hampton was held to just 3.7 yards per carry and didn’t seem to break any tackles in the interior of the Bills’ defensive line. Mike McDaniel decided to use Keaton Mitchell on the perimeter at the start of the game, but the Bills adjusted to take that away. At the end of the day, Hampton had 15 carries to Mitchell’s eight, but Hampton played 29 snaps, while Mitchell played 26 and ran a route on double the amount of dropbacks that Hampton did. This is a problematic timeshare in an offense that doesn’t look very good right now. Hampton remains a low-end RB2 who is touchdown dependent, which means he’s probably an RB3 next week against the Seahawks.

Young was also in and out of the blue tent with a “lower-body injury” head coach Dave Canales said was affecting the power on some of his throws. That does not include his game-sealing interception, which was a batted pass around the 0:10 mark as a timeout-less Panthers offense desperately drove for what would have been a game-tying field goal. It was a day of adversity on the road, as Young also lost Jalen Coker to a quad injury after the wideout entered the proceedings with an ankle issue. That was one reason Young was spreading the ball around to fantasy nonentities like Brycen Tremayne and Mitchell Evans. The Browns put the clamps on Tetairoa McMillan. Today was probably an inevitable correction to Young’s sizzling start, though the volume is still what fantasy managers are looking for. He has a bounce-back Week 4 spot in the defense-less Lions.

You heard that right, Treylon Burks plays for the Commanders. The former first-round pick hauled in just his third receiving touchdown of his career on a throw over the middle from Marcus Mariota. Burks has the size to be a red-zone threat, but despite the scoring play Sunday, he should be treated as one by fantasy managers.

Henderson and Rhamonrde Stevenson were bottled up in the first half before the Patriots abandoned the run game in the second half, down by three scores. Henderson nearly broke a couple runs in the first half but was tripped up before a big play could develop. A boom-bust running back option, Henderson will remain big-play dependent in Week 4 against a gettable Buffalo run defense. His lack of pass-game involvement will be an issue in PPR formats.

Boutte played 35-of-52 snaps, and if that sounds low, it actually lead the team in Nick Caley’s absolutely bizarre WR platoon situation where it seems like he is trying to find someone who he trusts. Boutte looks the best of the bunch, but we can’t recommend trying to eat these non-existent fantasy points. Jaylin Noel (2/17 on two targets) and Jared Wayne (1/20 on four targets including an inexcusable drop) continue to haunt the situation.

That’s more like it. McLaurin connected on a 30-yard touchdown with Marcus Mariota and went over 50 yards for the first time in 2026. Most of his connections outside of that touchdown were for short yardage, but he and Mariota appeared to have quality chemistry and took advantage of some smaller Seattle defensive backs on slants. McLaurin offers volatility, but is in the WR2 conversation for Week 4 against the Colts in London.

The Commanders were able to put up an impressive 34 points — six of those coming on a pick six, but still — against the Seahawks, but Williams had little to do with it with a long gain of nine. The 2026 third-round pick has a chance to be a solid PPR play at some point, but Williams is much more of a dynasty option than a redraft one at this stage. He’ll likely be the third wideout for Washington in Week 4 against the Colts.
