Fantasy managers are no doubt hopeful that Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III (oblique) will be back in lineups in Week 4. There is optimism that Walker could play in Detroit, but with a Monday night kickoff, some practice time would go a long way toward allaying concerns about his availability.

There’s a big fantasy name banged up in Detroit too—tight end Sam LaPorta sprained his ankle last week in Arizona, although he appears to have dodged the dreaded high ankle sprain.

Jaxon Smith-Njigba, WR, Seattle Seahawks [DraftKings DFS Value: $5,500]: DK Metcalf is an every-week no-brainer start. But Smith-Njigba could have a big night as well in a game with real shootout potential against a Lions defense allowing the second-most PPR points to wideouts this year.

Kenneth Walker III, RB, Seattle Seahawks [DraftKings DFS Value: $6,300]: This applies to Zach Charbonnet as well if Walker can’t go Monday night. The Lions are porous through the air but stout against the run. In fact, no team in the NFL has been a worse fantasy matchup for running backs after three weeks.

Tyler Lockett, WR, Seattle Seahawks [DraftKings DFS Value: $5,000]: Calling Lockett a “sleeper” may be stretching things a bit, but the veteran hasn’t had 50 receiving yards in a game since Week 1. Lockett will get back into the double digits in PPR points Monday night in game where the smart play is definitely to bet the over.

248.7. That’s how many total yards per game the Seahawks have allowed this season—tops in the NFC. However, that stat comes with the caveat that Seattle has faced the Patriots, Broncos and Dolphins—three teams who aren’t exactly offensive juggernauts. Don’t worry about Detroit’s fourth-ranked offense at home Monday night. Week 4 is going to conclude with a barrage of scoring—and fantasy points.
