AJ Barner vs. Chargers — Streaming Upside Following Target Spike

AJ Barner enters Week 4 healthy and established as Seattle's primary tight end atop the depth chart. After combining for just three targets over his first two games, Barner broke out in Week 3, hauling in five of nine targets for 69 receiving yards as a focal point over the middle.

With starting running back Jadarian Price ruled out with a chest injury, Seattle could lean on Barner to sustain drives against a winless Chargers defense. Our weekly projection forecasts around three receptions for 29 yards with sneak-play upside near the goal line, making him a viable streaming option in deeper formats.

Tee Higgins vs. JAX in a High-Scoring Home Matchup

Higgins enters Week 4 completely healthy after an impressive start to the season, highlighted by an acrobatic touchdown catch against Pittsburgh. Operating as Cincinnati's top outside receiver alongside Ja'Marr Chase, Higgins is poised to see consistent opportunities with depth wideout Andrei Iosivas sidelined on injured reserve.

Fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats as a strong option. Facing Jacksonville in a matchup with a 51.5 over/under, our models project Higgins for approximately five catches, 77 receiving yards, and 16.5 fantasy points, backed by 17 targets across his last two contests.
