Fantasy Football top scorers by position: NFL 2024 Week 4

More surprises came in Week 4 of the NFL. Here are the top scorers by position with some unexpected names towards the top of some.

Along with a few surprises at the top of the fantasy scorers were some surprisingly low scorers as well. Jets running back Breece Hall had just 10 rushing attempts and never got more than three yards on any of them. He ended up with just 3.8 fantasy PPR points.

On the other hand, who saw Bears running back D’Andre Swift dropping nearly 30 points? Not me, as he was sitting comfortably on my bench racking up points while I lost to my sister. Ouch! But after three weeks of failing to score more than 10 points, Swift found his stride against the Rams defense, putting up 93 yards on 16 carries and a 36-yard touchdown run.

Let’s take a look at all the top fantasy scorers from Week 4 of the NFL. (All points based on PPR formats.)
