Fantasy Football Week 4 Sleepers: Justin Fields set up nicely in return to action
Justin Fields (concussion) is expected to play Monday night at Miami, and he has the chance for a big game against the Dolphins. I like Fields as a top-10 Fantasy quarterback in all leagues. Fields was injured in Week 2 against Buffalo, and he missed Week 3 at Tampa Bay. He practiced in full Thursday and Friday, and his status will be made official Saturday. Just make sure he's starting before setting your lineup Sunday, but there's plenty of upside for Monday's game. The Dolphins are No. 2 in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks, and Daniel Jones in Week 1, Drake Maye in Week 2 and Josh Allen in Week 3 all scored at least 29 Fantasy points against Miami. Each quarterback ran for at least 25 yards as well, and Jones (two) and Maye combined for three rushing touchdowns against this defense. It's a great setup for Fields, who scored 31.5 Fantasy points in his only full game this season in Week 1 against Pittsburgh. And this game could be a potential high-scoring affair, which is why I like Tua Tagovailoa as another sleeper for Week 4.
Jets get Fields back from concussion to face Fins
FLORHAM PARK, N.J. — The winless New York Jets will have their starting quarterback in the lineup Monday night against the Miami Dolphins.
Justin Fields, who missed a game due to a Week 2 concussion, was cleared late Friday by doctors and will return to the lineup.
Fields, who spent more than a week in the NFL's concussion protocol, practiced fully for three consecutive days and was removed from the protocol after being examined by an independent neurologist.
"He's a dynamic runner. He's a smart player," Glenn said of his expectations for Fields. "I think in the passing game he showed exactly what he can do in that first game and we want to continue to expand on that and continue to get better."

Justin Fields will start for Jets vs. Dolphins after missing week with concussion
Justin Fields will play and start Monday night against the Dolphins in a battle of winless AFC East rivals, coach Aaron Glenn said after practice Saturday.
Fields suffered a concussion — the first of his football career — in the Jets’ Week 2 loss to the Bills and was out last Sunday.

But he has been able to practice this week and was cleared Friday, according to Glenn.
“I feel good,” Fields said in his first public comments since suffering the head injury. “I had an idea, but of course with this concussion stuff — this was my first — some days you feel good and some days the symptoms come right back. But right now, I feel good and hopefully I continue to feel this way when Monday comes.”
