Devaughn Vele Emerging as Intriguing Week 4 Option Against Falcons

Saturday, October 3, 6:24 PM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Devaughn Vele recorded three receptions for 39 yards on six targets in Week 3's loss to the Raiders. The third-year receiver has played a key role in the Saints' offense through the first three weeks, leading all skill-position players on the team with a 91% snap percentage. He faces a Falcons defense in Week 4 that has allowed opposing WR2s to average 5.3 receptions and 74.6 yards per game. With another key piece of the offense in Travis Etienne Jr. sidelined, the Saints could also lean more heavily on the passing game rather than putting too much on Alvin Kamara, potentially creating additional opportunities for Vele. He ranks as WR33 in RotoBaller's Week 4 rankings but carries some additional upside.

Denzel Boston Continues to Make Big Plays Against Steelers

Friday, October 2, 5:19 AM

Cleveland Browns rookie wide receiver Denzel Boston caught four of seven targets for 89 yards in the 27-24 win over division rival Pittsburgh. With quarterback Deshaun Watson off to a strong start to his 2026 season, Boston has produced, including a 60-yard reception down the left sideline. The rookie has now had three 45+ yard receptions in four games and remains a major part of the Browns' passing attack. He also saw elite usage again Thursday night, playing 95% of the snaps and running 100% of the routes. As long as Watson continues to play well and feed the Browns' young, talented weapons, Boston will be a WR3 in fantasy formats. However, reliance on big plays could make him a volatile option moving forward.
