Cooper Kupp Could Provide Flex Value in Week 4

Wednesday, September 24, 9:02 PM

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Cooper Kupp is a flex play at best in Week 4. Kupp has been difficult to project in 2025. He delivered a WR2 outing in Week 2, but has otherwise been unplayable. For context, the Seahawks' offense struggled as a whole in Week 1, found its footing in Week 2, and the defense and special teams dominated in Week 3 so much that the offense was hardly needed. If Week 4 proves to be a more competitive game in Arizona, there will be room for Kupp to provide fantasy value. The good news is that Kupp does not seem to have lost his talent. He is still very adept at getting open, and he is a great safety valve for quarterback Sam Darnold. However, with wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba entrenched as the clear No. 1 and rookie wideout Tory Horton blossoming, it may be prudent to only start Kupp in games where he will likely be essential to Seattle's success. You likely did not draft Kupp to be a starter anyway, so a wait-and-see approach is advised in Week 4.

Zay Flowers has Quiet Day against the Lions

Tuesday, September 23, 9:23 AM

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers was limited to only two catches for 13 yards on three targets on Monday Night Football, as his team lost 38-31 to slip to 1-2 on the season. Flowers was locked down by Lions cornerback D.J. Reed, and he didn't even have a catch until the second half. Flowers was coming off a hot start to the season with seven catches for 143 yards and a touchdown in Week 1 and seven catches for 75 yards and a touchdown in Week 2. In Week 3, though, he was much less involved as the targets went mostly to Rashod Bateman (7) and Mark Andrews (6) instead of the dynamic third-year receiver from Boston College. The Ravens will need to find a way for him to be more involved next week as they head on the road to take on the Chiefs in a huge AFC showdown.
