Amon-Ra St. Brown News
Friday, October 2, 5:22 PM
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown had a quiet game by his lofty standards in Week 3, recording four catches for 19 yards and a touchdown on eight targets against the New York Jets. However, the 26-year-old is still off to an excellent start to the season, as he's hauled in 23 receptions for 225 yards and five touchdowns on 35 targets across three games. In Week 4, St. Brown and the Lions will go on the road to take on the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers have been tough to throw on so far in 2026, allowing the fifth-fewest yards per pass attempt (6.1) in the NFL. However, Carolina placed starting cornerbacks Jaycee Horn (quad) and Mike Jackson (groin) on Injured Reserve on Wednesday. Particularly if the Lions' defense continues to struggle and Detroit is forced to turn to the air, St. Brown could be well-positioned to have a big day. Even coming off the down week, St. Brown remains a must-start WR1 option for fantasy managers in Week 4.

Emeka Egbuka News
Sunday, October 4, 1:26 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka was expected to lose value with the change at quarterback, but the second-year wideout was non-existent on Sunday. Egbuka hauled in two of his four targets for 13 yards in the loss to the Green Bay Packers. The Bucs whole offense didn't look good with rookie Jalon Daniels under center. Egbuka saw a season-low four targets in the three-point loss. Tampa Bay has a quick turn around with a matchup in Dallas versus the Cowboys on Thursday. This offense looked a little better in the second half, but Egbuka might fall into flex territory until he builds more chemistry with Daniels.
