The performances of Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels (24.0 PPR points), New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (23.1) and Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. (21.9) gave fantasy managers a big boost in their Week 4 matchups. But things didn’t go as smoothly for other rookies.
So, what statistical tidbits should you know about, and which rookies deserve your attention moving forward?
Quarterbacks
Top performers
Jayden Daniels, Washington Commanders (93.8% rostered, 68.7% started)
Daniels put up 24.0 fantasy points against the Cardinals on Sunday. He’s now scored 24 or more points in three of his first four games this season. His 82.1% completion percentage is the highest over any four-game span in league history (and he’s done it in his first four career games). The only other quarterback to post an 80+% completion rate over four games is Peyton Manning, who hit 81.8% in 2008. Daniels is a must-start, high-end QB1 against the Browns in Week 5.
Keep ’em rostered
Caleb Williams, Chicago Bears (53.0% rostered, 12.0% started)
