30The Steelers upcoming match with the Titans is ripe with fantasy potential, so here are the players to start and sit in week 4

The Steelers had another successful outing against the Texans in week three, and they look like a truly unstoppable force coming up against the Titans. That said, the Titans are also 3-0, and are boasting a surprisingly good offense all around. Because of this, there should still be plenty of quality fantasy starters to come out of this exciting matchup. As well, there are quite a few sit options that would be better served to sit on your bench this week instead of starting.

I had a rough outing projecting the fantasy-relevant players from last week. While David Johnson saved his fantasy day with a score, Brandin Cooks suffered through a quiet day. As for the Steelers, James Conner and Eric Ebron had their best weeks to date while Diontae Johnson had a horrible outing (granted he was knocked out with a concussion early in the game). Hopefully, this week will yield some more accurate results.

As for the obvious starts, you should be keeping JuJu Smith-Schuster, Ben Roethlisberger, and the Steelers defense in your lineups while obviously having Derrick Henry in from the Titans. As of now, A.J. Brown seems unlikely to suit up, and even if he did, his injury seems worse than initially thought. No matter what, he will likely need at least another week on the bench before being considered for starting fantasy lineups.

All of that is only the beginning of the list though, as there are still quite a few options that should be on the mind of fantasy owners. All of this said, here are five start ‘em and two sit ‘em candidates for the Steelers week four matchup against the Titans.
