Carr completed 25 of 35 pass attempts for 199 yards and four touchdowns during Sunday's 28-27 win over the Ravens.

Carr may not have racked up the passing yardage during the Raiders' Week 4 matchup, but four touchdowns to zero interceptions provided plenty of fantasy value for his owners. He connected with receiver Michael Crabtree seven times for 88 yards and three touchdowns, while Amari Cooper hauled in five receptions for 48 yards. Carr's next test will come Week 5 against the Chargers and their weak pass defense.

Siemian (shoulder) will be available to return to Sunday's contest at Tampa Bay in the event of an emergency, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.

Siemian was thrown to the ground by the Bucs' Clinton McDonald during a sack late in the second quarter, injuring his left (non-throwing) shoulder in the process. After halftime, Siemian was seen on the sideline wearing a baseball cap, and his potential return implies the injury isn't especially severe. Nonetheless, the Broncos will seemingly trust in Paxton Lynch to maintain their lead, unless an injury also strikes the rookie.

Cousins threw for 183 yards with three touchdowns and an interception while completing 21 of 27 passes Sunday against the Browns.

Cousins saw a massive drop-off in yardage after throwing for at least 296 in each of his first three games. Even so, the fifth-year quarterback managed to exploit a vulnerable Browns secondary for three touchdowns in a 31-20 win. He hooked up with tight end Jordan Reed for a pair of scores in the red zone, re-establishing a strong connection that had failed to produce a single touchdown coming in.

Wilson (knee/ankle) completed 23 of 32 passes for 309 yards and three touchdowns during Sunday's 27-17 victory over the Jets. He also lost five yards on five carries.

Wilson had been limited by a pair of leg injuries over the last few days, but he shook off the injuries to record his best passing performance of the season. He was ineffective on the ground, which should come as less of a surprise, but it was encouraging to see him throw for multiple touchdowns for the first time in 2016. Seattle will enjoy a bye in Week 5, so expect Wilson's mobility to be improved when the Falcons visits the Pacific Northwest in Week 6.

Siemian was carted to the locker room during Sunday's game at Tampa Bay with a left (non-throwing) shoulder injury and is questionable to return, Patrick Smyth of the Broncos' official site reports.

Slammed to the turf hard by Clinton McDonald on a second-quarter sack, Siemian was lifted from the contest, examined on the sidelined, and promptly taken from the field for further testing. If Siemian isn't cleared for further action, he'll finish five of seven for 68 yards and an 11-yard touchdown to Demaryius Thomas. In the meantime, rookie Paxton Lynch will direct the Broncos' offense.

Brissett (thumb) completed 17 of 27 passes for 205 yards, and added four carries for 23 yards in Sunday's 16-0 loss to the Bills. He also lost one of his two fumbles.

Brissett got the start over Jimmy Garoppolo (shoulder), but failed to lead the Patriots offense to any points in their first home shutout at Gillette Stadium. The rookie has failed to throw a passing touchdown in any of his three appearances. Brissett's fantasy relevance for the season has likely expired with regular starter Tom Brady back from his Deflategate suspension next week.

Stafford completed 23 of 36 passes for 213 yards and two interceptions in the Lions' 17-14 loss to the Bears in Week 4. He also tallied 17 rushing yards across two carries.

Stafford's QBR of 56.8 was the lowest he's recorded since Week 5 of 2015 as the Lions failed to get much of anything going on offense against the Bears. His second interception was a particularly brutal attempt of a pass, though, and served as an all-too-common reminder of Stafford's propensity to post frustrating fantasy numbers in seemingly favorable match-ups. He'll get a chance to rebound in Week 5, but it will come against a formidable Eagles defense.

Hoyer completed 28 of 36 passes for 302 yards and two touchdowns Sunday against the Lions.

With Alshon Jeffery limited with knee and hamstring injuries, Hoyer locked in heavily on both Eddie Royal and Kevin White on his way to a productive fantasy day. He found Royal for a first-half touchdown, and later connected with him a short pass that he turned into a 64-yard reception, and his second touchdown came to a wide-open Zach Miller. Hoyer's overall numbers were impressive, especially since the Bears played with the lead throughout most of the contest, and they were able to also lean heavily upon Jordan Howard and the rushing attack. He'll continue to be a solid fantasy backup until Jay Cutler returns to the lineup from his palm injury.

With Jay Cutler (thumb) deemed inactive, Hoyer will start Sunday versus the Lions.

For the second consecutive contest, Hoyer will stand in for Cutler against a bottom-tier secondary. In Week 3, he completed 30 of 49 passes for 317 yards and two touchdowns against the Cowboys.

Brissett (right thumb) is slated to start Sunday's game against the Bills.

With Jimmy Garoppolo inactive, wideout Julian Edelman is on track to serve as the Patriots' emergency QB option Sunday, with Brissett representing a speculative Week 4 fantasy lineup option, given that the Patriots could feature a run-heavy attack Sunday.
