Isaiah Williams Expected to Handle Bigger Role vs. Bears

Saturday, October 3, 2:39 PM

New York Jets wideout Isaiah Williams is expected to handle a larger role in the Jets' offense with Adonai Mitchell (finger) out of Sunday's contest. Williams was active last week and saw a season-high 89-snap percentage with two targets. The 25-year-old is expected to handle the WR2 role in an intriguing matchup against the Chicago Bears. The Bears defense allows an average of 207 passing yards per game and has allowed the fewest receptions this season. However, the Bears allowed 361 passing yards and surrendered three touchdowns against the Carolina Panthers in Week 1. As a result, Williams enters Week 4 as RotoBaller's PPR WR75. Williams should remain out of lineups this week in all formats.

Malachi Fields News

Malachi Fields' Target Volume Lacking Against Cardinals

Saturday, October 3, 6:42 AM

New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malachi Fields has hauled in six of 12 targets for 74 yards in three games to start the 2026 season. Despite a crowded training camp, Fields has stepped up as the WR2 in this offense, playing 74% of snaps and running 68% of routes. However, the Giants' offense under offensive coordinator Matt Nagy ranks 28th in pass attempts and 30th in pass rate over expected. With star receiver Malik Nabers and tight end Isaiah Likely dominating the volume in this passing attack, little is left for the rookie receiver. Fields faces an Arizona Cardinals secondary that has allowed the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. The snaps and matchup are there, but Fields' Week 4 fantasy value will hinge on the Giants' willingness to throw to him against a struggling Cardinals secondary.
