NFL
Fantasy Football: 4 Players You Can Drop After Week 4

Rashard Higgins, WR, Cleveland Browns

Yahoo Ownership Percentage: 23%

What a ride it's been for Rashard Higgins owners. He stormed out of the gates a few days after being signed off the Cleveland Browns' practice squad by garnering 11 targets while putting up an impressive 7-catch, 95-yard performance in Week 2. At that point, Higgins looked like he could lead the team in targets for the rest of the season.

Even on a bad offense, that's usually a valuable role.

But after fantasy footballers likely went and blew a boatload of their Free Agent Auction Budget (FAAB) percentages on Higgins, he put up two dud performances in Weeks 3 and 4, registering a combined 2 catches for 10 yards on 10 targets. Over those two games, Duke Johnson, Kenny Britt, and Ricardo Louis have out-targeted Higgins in the passing game.

Needless to say, if you're the fourth option on one of the league's worst offenses, you aren't worth rostering. Drop Higgins and try and salvage what's left of your FAAB to grab Devin Funchess or Jaron Brown.
