Fantasy Football: Key utilization stats to know from Week 3

Recapping the most important fantasy football player utilization data from Week 3 play.

The 2024 National Football League season has been a wild ride. In previous seasons, the projections, rankings, etc. for fantasy football have been fairly consistent. We’ve had our regular stars sitting at or near the top of their respective positions all season long at times.

However, we’ve seen fantasy mainstays fall off hard in 2024, while guys who were projected to be the undisputed starter have tailed off, and are either in a timeshare, or the depth chart has already flipped. It has left fantasy managers scrambling.

In addition, we’ve had some discarded talents, sometimes on their second, third or fourth stop, find a new home and resurrect their career. It’s still very early in the season, but we have some surprise fantasy contributors, and guys we just can’t rely on for help anymore.

As we look back at Week 3, we’ll check out some utilization situations, and how they’re changing the fantasy landscape going into Week 4.
