Jaxon Smith-Njigba News
Friday, October 2, 8:48 AM
Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba is in another smash position in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers. The Chargers are middle of the pack, allowing 27.43 fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers. However, JSN has not scored fewer than 26.2 fantasy points in a game this season. While he almost certainly cannot maintain his pace to reach 34 touchdowns this season, Smith-Njigba is seeing enough volume each week to push for 20-plus fantasy points. The Seahawks are also fresh off a bad loss to the Washington Commanders. The Chargers, on the other hand, are entering this matchup on a three-game losing streak. As such, Seattle should be able to take care of business in this game, but they will need to use the passing game to do so given that the running game has not gotten going quite yet. Fire up JSN with the utmost confidence this week.

Puka Nacua News
Friday, October 2, 10:14 PM
Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua is immediately back in mid-to-high WR1 territory after being removed from the injury report ahead of Week 4 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Nacua sat out two games due to a hip injury, but he has been cleared to return for a battle between two strong offenses. The 25-year-old hasn't seen the field since the season opener, and a lot has changed for Los Angeles since then. The Rams looked their worst during that Week 1 battle; Matthew Stafford threw for 155 yards and one interception in that game, but 717 yards, six touchdowns, and three interceptions in two games since then. Davante Adams has been filling in admirably for Nacua, but the latter should return to his role as Stafford's favorite target and a must-start fantasy receiver in all leagues, especially with no reported limitations on his workload for Week 4. He'll also benefit from this specific matchup against the Eagles, who have allowed the fifth-most touchdowns and 10th-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2026.
