Washington heads to Atlanta aiming for a second straight win, with Marcus Mariota under center as Washington looks to rebound after a blowout of the Raiders. Washington will be without Jayden Daniels (knee), and pass-catching staples Terry McLaurin, John Bates, and Noah Brown are out with groin and quad injuries, leaving the offense thin. Atlanta rolls with Michael Penix Jr. again after a brief Cousins flirtation, though no immediate plan to pull the trigger on Cousins. Final projection: Washington 27, Atlanta 17. Fantasy takeaway: Mariota and Penix Jr. carry upside, while Washington’s receiving depth is tested and riskier without McLaurin.

Notes around this matchup: the Panthers overwhelmed Atlanta 30–0 in Week 3, a reminder of how quickly a game script can shift. The Falcons’ quarterback situation remains fluid, with Penix Jr. back in the saddle but the shadow of Cousins lingering. The broadcast team features a veteran CBS setup and a robust radio crew, underscoring a game with clear DFS and daily-betting relevance for Week 4.
