Five fantasy football sleepers that deserve consideration for your Week 4 lineup.
We are now officially three weeks deep into the NFL season and each week brings emerging players, underperforming studs and, in this week’s case, uncertainty for fantasy football managers and the league at large. In Week 3, we saw many relatively unknown players put up strong weeks, as well as some rookie wide receivers jumping onto the scene, with first-round draft picks Justin Jefferson and Brandon Aiyuk both putting up a top 12 week in fantasy.
There has also been a recent unfortunate development, with eight people in the Tennessee Titans organization testing positive for COVID-19. With them just having played the Vikings, it leaves a lot of uncertainty and could potentially lead to both their games being postponed on Sunday.
With the Titans organization already announcing that they will be shut down until Saturday, fantasy managers may be forced to pivot come Sunday. Here are five fantasy football sleepers that could make an impact in your Week 4 lineup.

Fantasy Football Week 4 sleeper No. 5: QB Ryan Fitzpatrick, Miami (vs. Seattle)
Fitzpatrick has put up a very strong past two weeks and remains a quarterback that can consistently perform against bottom-half defenses. While at first Seattle may seem like a formidable opponent, they have actually given up the second-most fantasy points to quarterbacks thus far.
The Dolphins are almost certainly going to be playing catchup in this one, which gives Fitzpatrick a great opportunity to throw for 300+ yards and two touchdowns, despite never really having a chance at winning the actual game.
Fantasy Football Week 4 sleeper No. 4: QB Joe Burrow, Cincinnati (vs. Jacksonville)
Burrow has looked incredibly solid in his rookie season thus far and is currently sitting at the QB10 spot through three weeks. In Week 4 he draws a favorable matchup against Jacksonville, who just got decimated by Ryan Fitzpatrick and the Dolphins in Week 3. I like the Bengal’s chances to get in the win column here in Week 4 and, if that is the case, it will be due to their Burrow-led offense.
Fantasy Football Week 4 sleeper No. 3: RB Myles Gaskin, Miami (vs. Seattle)
It hasn’t been pretty, but Myles Gaskin has received at least 13 touches in each game this year. Going into the season, many thought it would be a shared backfield between Jordan Howard and Matt Breida. But three weeks into the season, it is clear that Gaskin is their guy.
He plays a large role in the passing game which should be on full display with Miami likely to be playing from behind against Seattle. Even though the talent is not necessarily there, he should be a lock for at least five catches and fifteen total touches in Week 4.
Fantasy Football Week 4 sleeper No. 2: RB Jeff Wilson Jr., San Fransisco (vs. Philadelphia)
Jeff Wilson put up a nice fantasy performance in Week 3, scoring two touchdowns and gaining 69 yards on 15 total touches. It was promising seeing Wilson involved in the passing game when Jerick McKinnon went down to injury as Wilson projects to be the RB1 for the 49ers in Week 4.
If the other three running backs on the depth chart miss Week 4, which is looking likely as of writing, Wilson should be in for a heavy workload against a weak Philadelphia defense.
Fantasy Football Week 4 sleeper No. 1: WR Robby Anderson, Carolina (vs. Arizona)
Through three weeks, Robby Anderson is seventh in the NFL in receptions, fifth in receiving yards, and is the WR10 in fantasy points. Meanwhile, D.J. Moore is sitting at the WR29. Some may believe that this is bound to change but it is also important to acknowledge that this could be the norm under the Bridgewater-led Panthers.
In Week 4, he draws a matchup against Arizona, who has been good against the pass but has also yet to face any tough competition. Carolina is going to have to air it out in order to keep up with Arizona’s potent offense, so Robby Anderson should have a chance to go over 100 yards for the third time in four weeks.
