Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren (knee) has been ruled out for the Week 4 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. Warren tested out his knee pregame and wasn't feeling good enough to give it a go. This absence is a troubling situation for the Steelers who don't have a viable backup right now. Kenneth Gainwell figures to see increased snaps while Kaleb Johnson and Trey Sermon should be in the mix as well. Between the three, Gainwell offers the most fantasy upside for desperate managers heading into Week 4. Gainwell could offer some low-end flex appeal for this tough Sunday morning matchup in Dublin.

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson could be in line to register a career-high snap share against the Carolina Panthers in Week 4. Henderson led the team with a 46 percent snap share last weekend, and that was only after Rhamondre Stevenson got the start and fumbled away his role. Stevenson ultimately lost two fumbles in the contest, creating plenty of buzz about Henderson potentially handling more volume this week. While head coach Mike Vrabel wouldn't publicly commit to reducing Stevenson's role, it seems likely given last week's split, as well as the level of production that Henderson has shown this year. He has specifically impressed on passing downs as both a receiver and blocker. The Ohio State product is the overall RB35 in fantasy football this year, and while the presence of Stevenson may continue to be a thorn in his side, it won't necessarily preclude him from having standalone fantasy value. Managers should view Henderson as a solid RB3/flex option this week. RotoBaller's fantasy experts agree, ranking him as the overall RB30.
