Week 4 of the NFL season is under wraps, and we have to talk injuries and how they will affect your waiver wire adds.
Let’s talk about injuries that have occurred in week 4. Four big names will miss at least one game and up to season long. Dallas Cowboys will be without their two starting defensive studs on the d-line with Micah Parsons in a boot and Demarcus Lawrence placed on IR. Shaq Thompson will also be joining IR this season for the Carolina Panthers and the Jaguars may be without their Pro Bowl stud Josh Hines-Allen due to concussion.
Defensive Tackle:
Cameron Heyward – Pittsburgh Steelers
Heyward had an interesting off-season dealing with his contract but has continued to be a big piece for the Steelers’ tough defense. He currently has 7 QB Hits, 2 sacks (last two games) and averaging 2 solo tackles a game. He is currently DT1 for the season and is averaging 7 points a game. Of course, scoring can vary but he has been a staple for the Steelers and should be as well for your fantasy team.
Maliek Collins – San Francisco 49ers
