Andrew Erickson goes solo on The Tailgate to tackle the biggest fantasy football storylines heading into NFL Week 4, starting with Puka Nacua’s expected return to the Rams lineup and the latest concern surrounding Drake Maye’s shoulder.

The injuries at running back have created new opportunities for Ollie Gordon II in Miami and Braelon Allen with the Jets, while Jameson Williams suddenly has an intriguing matchup against a depleted Panthers secondary.

Erickson also answers live start/sit and trade questions before looking at the Bears’ quarterback situation and what J.J. McCarthy’s move to the Giants could mean for Malik Nabers and the New York offense.
