It’s Week 4 of the 2024 NFL regular season, which is about the quarter-pole of the fantasy season. Luckily, we finally received a bit of a respite from the injury bug in Week 3.
The good news is that the weather doesn’t appear to be a giant factor this weekend, although it’s always worth double checking. The remnants of Hurricane Helene are swirling around in the Southeast and Midwest, but as luck has it, most teams in the area will have dry conditions, or are indoors under a roof.
This is the final week before we start to get games over in England, bye weeks kick in, and things become a little more difficult from a lineup standpoint. Here’s to a great Week 4 for everyone!
Doing start/sit articles can be a little challenging. The players featured on the list below should not be taken as “must starts” or “must sits.” Instead, these are more suggestions on what we believe managers should do with fringe players heading into the weekend. The choice is ultimately up to the manager.
Just because a player is listed as a “start” doesn’t mean he should be put in the lineup over the secure, bona fide studs. Vice versa for the “sits.” If there’s no better option on the waiver wire or the bench, a manager shouldn’t automatically sit the player. That’s why these can be tricky waters to navigate.
