Matthew Stafford News
Friday, October 2, 10:24 PM
Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford had already been producing high fantasy totals over the last two weeks, and now, his ceiling will soar even higher as he gets his top target back for Week 4 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Superstar wide receiver Puka Nacua has been cleared to play after a two-week absence due to a hip injury. Stafford will now benefit from having the league's best one-two punch in Nacua and Davante Adams. Although Nacua is the bigger name here, Adams filled in admirably with the 25-year-old sidelined. Over the last two weeks, Adams has 15 catches for 332 yards and two touchdowns. The veteran will return to his role as the No. 2 receiver in Los Angeles, but both he and Nacua are still in must-start consideration for Week 4. The same goes for Stafford, who gets to reap the benefits of throwing to some of the best receivers in the NFL. We're also intrigued by this matchup against the Eagles, who have allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Philadelphia has yet to intercept a pass, and its defense most recently surrendered 247 yards and three total touchdowns to quarterback Case Keenum. The stars are aligning for another big QB1 performance from Stafford in fantasy football.

Trevor Lawrence News
Saturday, October 3, 10:47 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence has not piled up huge passing-yardage totals lately, but the touchdowns have kept coming. Lawrence threw for 182 yards against New England last week, his second straight game below 200, yet he still found the end zone three times and added 25 yards on the ground. He has seven touchdown passes against two interceptions through three games, with Jacksonville scoring 27 points per game along the way. Cincinnati does present a challenge up front. The Bengals have generated pressure on 39.7% of opposing dropbacks, the fifth-highest rate in the league, so Lawrence may not have a clean pocket all afternoon. RotoBaller is still very high on him for Sunday, ranking Lawrence as QB4 for Week 4. The passing yardage has been uneven, but his touchdown production and Jacksonville's strong start offensively keep him firmly in QB1 territory against Cincinnati.
