DJ Chark Fantasy

Detroit Lions wide receiver D.J. Chark (ankle) was not at practice on Thursday after being limited on Wednesday with an ankle injury. Fantasy managers should check back in Friday for his status, as this will be a better indicator of his availability for Week 4 against the Seahawks. Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) is also dealing with his own ankle injury, so the Lions' pass-catching group is pretty banged-up heading into the week. The former Jacksonville Jaguar has seen six targets per game so far, totaling 98 yards and a touchdown in three games. If any of the Detroit pass-catchers are held out and Chark is to be active, he could make for an interesting streaming option against a porous Seattle defense.

Detroit Lions wide receiver D.J. Chark (ankle) was limited at Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury. The 26-year-old was one of the three Detroit wide receivers to make the injury report. However, among his teammates Amon-Ra St. Brown and Josh Reynolds, the former Jaguar was the only one to make an appearance on Wednesday. Chark's limited practice should spell good things to come regarding his availability for Detroit's Week 4 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. If either of his wide receiver teammates fails to suit up, Chark could be in for an increased workload against a Seattle secondary that has struggled against the pass this season. Keep an eye on him as a possible streamer for Week 4.

Detroit Lions wide receiver D.J. Chark caught three-of-six targets for 46 yards in the loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 3. Without a touchdown, he was a fantasy bust, and his season-long outlook is just a boom-or-bust flex play in deep leagues. There's a ton of target competition in Detroit, so Chark can't be counted on as a week-to-week starter. He's a solid DFS play and deep-league flyer, though. Detroit takes on Seattle in Week 4, which could be a bounce-back week for the Lions' passing attack.
