New England Patriots RB James White said he is prepared for whatever role is thrown at him in Week 4 against the Miami Dolphins. ‘If it is one snap or 60 snaps, you prepare hard in practice and be ready for any moment because you never know how the game is going to go for any of us,’ White said.

Broncos | Matt LaCosse to see more targets?
Denver Broncos TE Matt LaCosse will likely inherit the targets that were going to TE Jake Butt (knee), according to Benjamin Allbright of 104.7 FM Denver.
Broncos | Jake Butt placed on IR
Denver Broncos TE Jake Butt (knee) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Saturday, Sept. 29.
Seahawks | No concerns over Rashaad Penny
Seattle Seahawks RB Rashaad Penny’s lack of production early in the season doesn’t concern head coach Pete Carroll because Penny is just now back to his ideal playing weight after he dealt with injuries this offseason. ‘Really, he wasn’t allowed to do enough work to stay up with it so he’s really two weeks into it, kind of the three weeks into just getting back,’ Carroll said.
Chargers | Keenan Allen should be active
Los Angeles Chargers WR Keenan Allen (knee, tooth) is expected to play in Week 4, according to head coach Anthony Lynn.
Seahawks | Chris Carson should play
Seattle Seahawks RB Chris Carson (hip) is expected to play in Week 4 despite being limited in practice all week, according to The Seattle Time’s Bob Condotta.
Footballguys View: Carson should lead the way on the ground for the Seahawks. He’s currently atop the depth chart ahead of 2018 first-round pick Rashaad Penny. Carson is a low-end RB2 for Fantasy GMs against the Cardinals in Week 4.
Bills | Kelvin Benjamin stays even keeled
Buffalo Bills WR Kelvin Benjamin admitted he hasn’t been performing how he thought he would, nor has the Bills offense as a whole. ‘I’m just working, man. Just getting better. Feeling good. We gonna keep grinding and keep building this relationship with Josh [Allen}.’
Footballguys View: The Bills offense showed some life last week in a shocking road victory over the Vikings. Most of that was rookie QB Josh Allen, but Benjamin caught a season-high three passes (yes, we realize that’s not much). Perhaps things are trending in the right direction for this passing game. Even if things are getting on track for Allen and Benjamin, we can’t trust the veteran WR as anything more than a WR6 or ‘what the heck’ flex in Week 4 against the Packers.
Browns | Carlos Hyde off to fantastic start
Cleveland Browns RB Carlos Hyde has four rushing touchdowns through the first three games, most by a Browns player through the first three games since Leroy Kelly in 1971.
Browns | Myles Garrett on historic pace
Cleveland Browns DE Myles Garrett has four sacks through the first three games, most by any Cleveland defender. He is on pace to smash the franchise record set by Reggie Camp, who has 24 sacks in 1984.
Browns | Jarvis Landry in tremendous company
Cleveland Browns WR Jarvis Landry is just six receptions short for the most catches in the first five years of an NFL career heading into Week 4 against the Oakland Raiders.
