The fantasy football waiver wire won’t be as active the next couple days compared with last week, when a plethora of injuries resulted in role changes throughout the NFL.

The bye weeks begin in Week 4 with the Eagles and Packers idle, meaning no Aaron Rodgers, Jordy Nelson, Eddie Lacy or Jordan Matthews. Owners of Delanie Walker, Antonio Gates, Sammy Watkins, Dez Bryant, Willie Snead and Michael Floyd may need to find replacements on waivers pending the status of their injuries.

DAK PRESCOTT (QB, Cowboys)

Prescott is a streaming option for Week 4 in a great matchup against the 49ers bottom five defense. The Cowboys lean on the running game, but Prescott provides a high floor since he runs and has run for two touchdowns. He is averaging 255.7 passing yards per game, threw his first touchdown on Sunday and hasn’t thrown an interception yet, while averaging 10.33 yards per pass attempt.
