Week 4 of the 2024 NFL season is officially over after a thrilling weekend of football action.
And if you play fantasy football, you’re already planning ahead with waivers after a busy slate of games.
That’s what we’re here for, a roundup of some of the players you could be targeting ahead of Week 5.
Some of the names below might be taken already, but if not, there are a bunch of dudes who could change your fantasy fortunes this season. Let’s run through them, in no particular order, and we’ve updated this after the two games that were played on Monday Night Football.

He’s probably already rostered in your league, but: he had 14 carries for 69 yards and a couple of catches. Carson Steele took a backseat.

He’s back! And maybe his big eight-catch game means he’ll be a bigger part of this offense.

He’s become a PPR king. Even if high yardage isn’t there, high volume is a good thing.

He’s scored in three of four games. That’s something, although Jordan Addison’s return doesn’t help.

Timeshare coming in Jacksonville? Worth investing in.

Looks like he could be WR2 in Green Bay, and he’s explosive as heck. Go get him.

Keep an eye on Anthony Richardson’s injury. The elder backup QB looked good on Sunday and could be a good spot starter.
