The 2024 National Football League has officially reached what is roughly the quarter point of the regular season, and it’s a bit past the quarter-pole of the fantasy season.
Thankfully, the injury bug didn’t bite too badly in Week 4 like in the first few weekends of the season. In fact, a lot of injured players are nearing a return, and should be back soon.
We continue to see some high-round fantasy options underproduce, however, forcing fantasy managers to change their thinking. It might not necessarily be time to cut bait, but you have to bench guys rather than just starting them, and hoping for the best, even if they were early picks.
This season, perhaps more than any in recent memory, has had so much turmoil due to injuries and players not even coming close to their preseason projections. We’re seeing depth charts changing weekly, and we’re trying to stay on top of things to help you set a better lineup in the weeks ahead.
As we look back at Week 4, we’ll check out some utilization situations, and how they’re changing the fantasy landscape going into Week 5.
