Week 4 concludes with a Monday Night Football NFC West rivalry matchup between the Los Angeles Rams and San Francisco 49ers.
I have three primetime DFS plays to consider. These players aren’t the flashiest of names and are more bargain-bin plays who could surprise.
WR Jauan Jennings
Jennings has operated as the 49ers' WR3 again this season, running a route on 60% of dropbacks. His best game as a pro came against the Rams in Week 18 of last year, when he caught six passes for 94 yards and two TDs.
FB Kyle Juszczyk
Juszczyk’s primary role will likely be as a pass blocker with Trent Williams (ankle) out, but that sets up Kyle Shanahan to sneak him out into a pattern for a big play.
The fullback tends to see more passing snaps when Elijah Mitchell (knee) is out; he ran a route on a season-high 45% of dropbacks last week. Juszczyk also has the potential to score a short-yardage TD, having done so once already this season.
WR Ben Skowronek
Through three games, Skowronek has run a route on 85% of Matthew Stafford’s dropbacks and has more targets (13), catches (10) and yards (107) than Allen Robinson (12/7/88).
He has lined up in the backfield on 19% of his snaps as a fullback, so there’s even the possibility of a vulture TD carry.
