Week 4 of the NFL season is just around the corner, and football is in full swing. As always, surprises abound. Teams that were expected to struggle are off to hot starts, while some potential Super Bowl contenders sit at 0-3 or 1-2.
Fantasy football has been equally unpredictable, and Week 4 promises more of the same. After a less-than-stellar showing last week with our sit suggestions, we’re confident in this week’s picks of players to avoid in your starting lineup.
1. Anthony Richardson, QB, Indianapolis Colts
Richardson has struggled with consistency, completing only 50% of his passes so far this season. Over the last two weeks, he’s totaled just 21.94 half-PPR points, a sharp drop from his impressive 31.08 points in Week 1. This week, he faces a tough Steelers defense, which has allowed the fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks and the fourth-fewest to wide receivers. With those factors in play, Richardson should be on your bench.
