Week 4 Start ‘Em Sit ‘Em: Quarterbacks
Week 4 is here, and fantasy managers need to navigate injuries and bye weeks. Get the top quarterback start ’em and sit ’em to optimize your lineup!
Start ‘Em
Justin Fields
Justin Fields has been up and down this season, but if he clears concussion protocol and returns against Miami, he’s a must-start. Every Jets quarterback has topped 40 rushing yards this year, and the Dolphins have already surrendered a league-high three rushing touchdowns to QBs while struggling to create pressure. They’ve also allowed the fifth-most passing scores and the highest passer rating. Every quarterback to face Miami has finished top five for the week, giving Fields massive upside if active.
Drake Maye
Drake Maye has delivered back-to-back strong fantasy outings, scoring over 23 points in each of his last two games. He’s added 76 rushing yards and a touchdown in that stretch, making him more dangerous with his legs. Carolina has kept quarterbacks under 16.2 points through three weeks, but Maye has the tools to be the first to break 20 against them. He belongs in all lineups.
Sit ‘Em
Dak Prescott
Dak Prescott is a tough sell this week against Green Bay. He’s missing CeeDee Lamb and key linemen, and the Packers rank third-best in limiting quarterback fantasy points. Prescott has been held under 15 points in two of three games and doesn’t belong in lineups, even in Superflex.
Trevor Lawrence
Trevor Lawrence remains turnover-prone and hasn’t topped 15 fantasy points this season. Despite Tennessee being a beatable defense, his struggles stretch back to last year, making him impossible to trust until he proves otherwise.
