With three weeks of action in the books, the fantasy football landscape is starting to take form. Roles are being established, trends are coming to fruition, and everybody still has the chance to win their respective league. It’s the best time of the fantasy football year, so let’s take a look at the Week 4 running back rankings.<\/p>\n

Fantasy Football Week 4 Running Back Rankings: What to Do With Chuba Hubbard<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Tier 1: Week Winners<\/strong><\/h4>\n
    \n
  1. Derrick Henry<\/span><\/li>\n
  2. Alvin Kamara<\/span><\/li>\n
  3. Austin Ekeler<\/span><\/li>\n
  4. Joe Mixon<\/span><\/li>\n
  5. Aaron Jones<\/span><\/li>\n
  6. D\u2019Andre Swift<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Derrick Henry is starting to catch passes, A.J. Brown and Julio Jones are both battling injuries, and Tennessee is going up against an atrocious Jets team. He\u2019s the RB1 by a comfortable margin. Alvin Kamara is the Saints offense, and the touchdowns started to come his way last week. Brandon Staley is using Austin Ekeler like a true three-down back and should be an elite fantasy option as long as he is on the field.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    Joe Mixon has one of the highest snap shares in football and should have a favorable game script against the lowly Jacksonville Jaguars<\/a>. Aaron Jones has absorbed the Jamaal Williams role and is now owns a 70% snap share in one of the NFL\u2019s best offenses. D\u2019Andre Swift has already exceeded all expectations, and head coach Dan Campbell said <\/span>he will earn a bigger role<\/span><\/a> now that he\u2019s back to full health.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

    This D'Andre Swift run was so fast I had to get it in slo-mo. My take; such a small crease like the block from hock and swift is through it. He\u2019s literally one block (Kennedy it looks like could have made) from taking this one for 6. It\u2019s coming. #onepride<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/ZZHkOcLpcl<\/a><\/p>\n
