Aaron Jones Sr. News
Friday, October 2, 12:54 PM
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. is facing what is likely to be his most favorable fantasy circumstances of the year when the Miami Dolphins visit U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday. The veteran not only has complete control of the backfield while backfield mate Jordan Mason (thumb) is on injured reserve, but he's now facing the 32nd-ranked defense against half-PPR running backs. The Vikings have certainly struggled themselves on offense, ranking dead last in yards gained, but Jones figures to get the lion's share of work against one of the NFL's worst teams. As quarterback Kyler Murray acclimates to a new offense, any semblance of a passing game should benefit Jones. He's RotoBaller's No. 14 running back in Week 4, making him a high-quality RB2 in most formats.

Carnell Tate News
Thursday, October 1, 5:49 PM
The fourth overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, Tennessee Titans wide receiver Carnell Tate has gotten off to a slow start to his NFL career. Across three games, the 21-year-old has recorded 13 catches for 123 yards on 20 targets. On the bright side, Tate currently leads Tennessee in targets and is coming off his most productive performance in Week 3, hauling in six catches for 58 yards against the New York Giants. However, the Titans' passing game and offense as a whole remain a major question mark in quarterback Cam Ward's second season as the starter. Three games in, Ward is averaging just 5.7 yards per pass attempt, and the Titans as a team are averaging just 12.3 points per game. Without significant improvements in his offensive environment, Tate remains a risky start on a weekly basis for fantasy managers.
