Juwan Johnson, Juwan Johnson Remains High-Volume Threat for Saints

New Orleans Saints tight end Juwan Johnson recorded six receptions for 51 yards on eight targets in Week 3 against the Seahawks. He and starting quarterback Spencer Rattler have built a strong connection, with Rattler targeting him 28 times this season, second-most on the team behind receiver Chris Olave. Johnson ranks fifth in receiving yards among tight ends through three weeks, and his volume shows no signs of slowing. He faces a Bills defense in Week 4 that has been solid against tight ends, allowing just five receptions for 32 yards and one touchdown through three weeks. Despite the tough matchup, Johnson remains a TE1 based on volume alone.

Rashid Shaheed, Rashid Shaheed a Big-Play Threat Against Buffalo

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Rashid Shaheed recorded four receptions for 42 yards on six targets in the Week 3 blowout loss to the Seahawks. This was his second straight game with exactly four receptions, and he ranks third on the team in total targets through three weeks. Shaheed remains a big-play threat thanks to his speed, but he faces a Bills defense that has allowed a long reception of just 19 yards or fewer in each of their last two contests. With limited volume, he ranks as a WR3/WR4, though he could be worth a flier as the Saints are likely to have to air it out against Buffalo.

Chris Olave, Chris Olave Remains Dominant in Saints Passing Attack

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Chris Olave was a target hog against the Seahawks, seeing 14 of the team's 41 pass attempts. However, he turned his game-high 10 receptions into just 57 yards and is still searching for his first touchdown of the season. Olave and starting quarterback Spencer Rattler have built a strong connection, as he leads the league in targets through three weeks. His volume alone keeps him relevant in fantasy lineups, though Week 4 presents a tough matchup against a Bills defense allowing just 131.3 passing yards per game. Olave is a volume-based WR2/WR3 as the clear No. 1 option in the Saints' passing attack.

Alvin Kamara, Alvin Kamara Set to Carry Workload Again in Week 4

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara rushed 18 times for 42 yards and caught one of two targets for 14 yards in the Week 3 blowout loss to the Seahawks. Head coach Kellen Moore continues to rely on Kamara, who ranks ninth in the league with 50 carries through three weeks. His involvement in the passing game has been sporadic, averaging just 3.3 targets per game compared to his career average of 6.25. Fellow back Kendre Miller also saw increased action in Week 3, recording a season-high nine touches as the game slipped away. Kamara will need to carry the load against the Bills, making him an RB2, but it comes with some snap-risk if the game falls out of hand.

Tyler Shough, Could Tyler Shough See More Playing Time Soon for the Saints?

New Orleans Saints rookie quarterback Tyler Shough saw his first NFL action at the end of Week 3's 44-13 blowout loss to the Seahawks. He failed to complete either of his two pass attempts, but his appearance marked the first time he had stepped on the field in a regular-season game. The Saints now travel to Buffalo in Week 4 to face a Bills defense that has been dominant against the pass, allowing just 131.3 passing yards per game. Current starter Spencer Rattler is now 0-9, meaning the door may be opening for Shough to take over starting duties eventually. He is off the radar for now, but it would not be surprising to see him take over the starting spot if losses keep piling up.
