Jalen Pitre - SAF

Houston Texans

Texans beat writer Aaron Wilson says S Jalen Pitre is expected to return to practice this week.

Added 8:25 pm (EST) Aaron Wilson

Pitre suffered a bruised lung in Week 1’s loss to the Ravens and has been sidelined ever since. The former second-round pick’s return will be a welcomed one by a Texans defense that ranks 21st in points allowed, but 16th in total yards allowed. We’ll see how Pitre fares in practice throughout the week, but it sounds like there’s a good chance he’ll play in Week 4 against the Steelers.

K. Gainwell - RB

PHI

Kenneth Gainwell rushed 14 times for 43 yards in the Eagles’ Week 3 win over the Bucs.

Gainwell only added one catch on two targets. Reports prior to the game had Philly riding the hot hand with their backfield. D’Andre Swift was coming off a 175-yard outing and immediately looked like the superior back in Week 3. He broke off numerous chunk gains en route to 130 rushing yards on 16 attempts. Six of Gainwell’s 14 carries came on the Eagles’ final drive when the game was mostly decided. For now, it looks like the Philly backfield has a winner and it’s Swift. Gainwell will rank as an RB4 for his Week 4 matchup with the Commanders.

O. Zaccheaus - WR

PHI

Olamide Zaccheaus caught 2-of-3 targets for 58 yards in the Eagles’ Week 3 win over the Bucs.

With Quez Watkins sidelined because of a hamstring injury, Zaccheaus, signed in free agency during the offseason, took on the WR3 role for this game. He made the most of his elevated role with a 34-yard touchdown strike from Jalen Hurts late in the second quarter. Like Watkins, Zaccheaus could pop for the occasional big play, but he isn’t on the fantasy radar heading into Week 4.

D. Smith - WR

PHI

Devonta Smith caught 4-of-5 targets for 28 yards in the Eagles’ Week 3 win over the Bucs.

Smith entered the game with 11 catches for 178 yards and two scores, but it was all A.J. Brown in this game. Brown racked up 14 targets and his 131 receiving yards were good for nearly half of Jalen Hurts’ passing yards. The Eagles’ game plan is extremely versatile on a week-to-week basis, meaning Smith will sometimes take a backseat to one or multiple of his teammates. That’s no reason to fade him heading into a good matchup with the Commanders in Week 4.

B. Mayfield - QB

Baker Mayfield completed 15-of-25 passes for 146 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in the Bucs’ 25-11, Week 3 loss to the Eagles.

Mayfield and the Bucs entered the week 2-0 on the back of wins over Minnesota and Chicago. Both teams played on Sunday and both teams emerged from the weekend winless on the season, so it was fair to question how real Tampa Bay’s flawless record was. Up against the reigning NFC Champions, Mayfield got exposed by the best defense he has seen this year. Mayfield threw his first interception of the season and took two sacks after taking just one in his first two games as a Buc. He made a valiant effort to keep his team alive with a touchdown-scoring drive in the fourth quarter, but it was too little too late and he never saw the ball again. This is the Mayfield fantasy managers should expect going forward. He will rank as a low-end QB2 for his Week 4 game against the Saints.

M. Evans - WR

Mike Evans caught 5-of-10 targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in the Bucs’ Week 4 loss to the Eagles.

Evans has now scored in all three of his appearances this season. That shouldn’t come as a surprise given how much Baker Mayfield favors him in the red zone. Mayfield targeted him on 3-of-6 pass attempts in the red zone including two targets from the one-yard line. The second goal line target resulted in Evans’ touchdown. Though the Bucs’ passing attack isn’t particularly potent, it revolves around Evans, keeping him in the WR2 conversion for Week 4 against the Saints.

J. Hurts - QB

PHI

Jalen Hurts completed 23-of-37 passes for 277 yards, one touchdown, and two interceptions in the Eagles’ 25-11, Week 3 win over the Bucs.

Hurts also added 10 carries for 28 yards and a touchdown. Per usual, his rushing score came on a tush-push play. The Bucs did a good job at containing Hurts on the perimeter, forcing him to take short gains on the ground or get rid of the football after extending plays. Though this allowed him to get off 37 pass attempts, it also resulted in a pair of interceptions. A pair of shaky throws aside, Hurts got the job done at the goal line and through the air. He will remain a top-three fantasy quarterback for the Eagles’ Week 4 matchup with the Commanders.

T. Higgins - WR

CIN

Bengals WR Tee Higgins was escorted to the locker room in the third quarter of Week 3 against the Rams.

The reason for the departure has yet to be disclosed, but Higgins went with the training staff to the locker room in the third quarter of the team’s Week 3 game against the Rams. Further update will come following the game.

A. Brown - WR

PHI

A.J. Brown caught 9-of-14 targets for 131 yards in the Eagles’ Week 3 win over the Bucs.

Brown was seen arguing with Jalen Hurts on the sideline during the team’s Week 2 win over the Vikings. Brown caught four balls for 29 yards in that game and was clearly frustrated with his usage. Jalen Hurts ultimately downplayed the incident after the game, but it’s hard to ignore Brown getting 14 targets in his very next game. Coincidence or not, it was a strong return to form for the Eagles’ WR1. Brown did damage downfield and after the catch throughout the night. He remains in the fantasy WR1 ranks heading into Philly’s Week 4 matchup with the Commanders.
