Fantasy Football: 10 wide receiver sleepers to start in Week 4

4 of 5

4. Michael Pittman Jr., Indianapolis Colts

Michael Pittman Jr. has had a great 2021 season so far, catching 17-of-28 targets for 220 yards. He’s quickly become a favorite target for new Colts’ quarterback Carson Wentz, especially with T.Y. Hilton still on I.R.

Pittman Jr. has another solid matchup ahead, playing a Miami defense that’s in the bottom half of the league in pass defense. His target share of 25.5% is 13th in the league and will guarantee him weekly volume.

Pittman Jr. is a startable FLEX this week and worth a look in DFS lineups.

3. DeVonta Smith, Philadelphia Eagles

DeVonta Smith and the Eagles have a potential shootout of a matchup this week against the Kansas City Chiefs, who are 23rd in the NFL against the pass. Jalen Hurts, especially when dueling with Patrick Mahomes, will be throwing a ton.

Though I would’ve liked to see more Smith last week in garbage time against Dallas, I still think he has a shot at pretty steady volume this week. He’s averaging seven targets a game and has the potential for more this week.
