Steelers fantasy football: Players to start or sit in Week 4

Corey Davis

Verdict: Start ’em

With Brown out of the starting lineup, it has left a hole that former top-five pick Corey Davis has filled in admirably. He has provided a big-play threat in this offense while also adding value as a red zone threat. He has yet to post an off week in 2020, putting up a strong performance in every week so far. While his stats alone are positive, he will be facing a Steelers secondary that has struggled to stop opposing pass offenses so far this year.

The Steelers game plan will revolve around stopping Henry, meaning Davis could slip through the cracks. He is a real threat to either find the end zone or have a decent yardage total by the end of the game. While he may not go off for a record number of yards, if he can get five catches for 80 yards and a potential score, Davis will be well worth a start in week three.

The Titans have kept their passing offense alive through Davis this year, and it would be wise to expect that trend to continue in week four. All it will take is one lax moment for Davis to be fantasy relevant this week. Considering the state of the Steelers secondary, it isn’t hard to imagine him scoring a respectable total for fantasy.
