Miles Sanders (groin) listed as questionable for Week 4

Panthers RB Miles Sanders (groin) is listed as questionable for Week 4 against Minnesota.

Fantasy Impact

Sanders was limited in practice this week due to a groin injury. The veteran spent most of the preseason dealing with a groin injury that has appeared to flare back up. Fantasy managers should expect Chubba Hubbard to start if Sanders cannot suit up against the Vikings.

Tyler Higbee (Achilles) questionable to play versus Colts

Los Angeles Rams TE Tyler Higbee (Achilles) is listed as questionable to play in the team’s Week 4 matchup with the Indianapolis Colts.

Fantasy Impact

Higbee, who just signed a contract extension, has been off to a solid start in 2023. Higbee had a strong Week 3 performance, catching five balls for 71 yards on Monday night. He has at least three catches in every game and 45-plus yards in two, making him a solid streaming option if available, though he started the week with two DNPs.
