Here's a look at the highest and lowest winning percentage for players in fantasy football through four weeks
We break down the players popping up on the best and worst fantasy football teams after the first month of the season.
We've made it through the first four weeks of fantasy football in 2026. It's time to reflect on our rosters and decisions, plus look ahead to how we can continue our winning ways or fix a slow start to the season . Yahoo provided us with data highlighting which players have shown up most and least often on winning rosters through four weeks. Below, we'll break down the lists.
Highest Percentage of Players on Winning Rosters
It's no surprise to see the Chiefs' back at the top of this list after what he's done to opposing defenses over the first four weeks. The lowest Walker has finished in fantasy points on a weekly basis is RB4 as Kansas City enters its bye.
JSN is tracking toward leading the NFL in receiving yards for a second straight campaign with 481 through four games. Prior to Week 4, Smith-Njigba had at least eight catches for over 100 yards and a score in every contest, including a 9-155-3 outburst in Week 2 versus Arizona.
If you invested an ealry pick in Williams, he's been about as consistent as you can get so far in 2026. He posted double-digit fantasy totals in each of the first three weeks before breaking out with 31.7 points in Week 4 for an RB1 finish.
If you drafted Lamb this season, you likely got a discount after he spurned managers in 2025. The Cowboys' top receiver hasn't scored fewer than 12.9 fantasy points in a game so far this season, and has topped 30+ points on two separate occasions.
The consensus No. 1 overall pick has been just that in 2026 for a Lions team that continues to be a wealth of fantasy points for managers on both sides. Gibbs has cleared 19 touches in each game and has three games of 20+ fantasy points.
Lowest Percentage of Players on Winning Rosters
Most of the players on this list are here due to some type of injury. Brown posted only a 3-26-0 line on four targets in his Patriots debut in Week 1 and then was placed on injured reserve with an ankle issue.
We all suspected Achane would regress with a new coaching staff and low expectations for the Dolphins. That was the case through three weeks before Achane tore his ACL and was ruled out for the rest of 2026.
This is purely because Nacua has missed two of four games this season. He got to double-digit points in Week 1 before missing two weeks, but returned in Week 4 to post a solid 9-125-0 line on 12 targets while also scoring a rushing TD — what we're used to seeing from him.
After lighting the fantasy world on fire in 2024, it's been a rough year and change for Barkley, who is on the mend with a hamstring injury. He's had to exit early in two games this season and the Eagles offense has been disappointing to start the Sean Mannion era. To make matters worse, potential future Hall of Fame OT Lane Johnson just announced he's retiring.
Chase has two great games sandwiched between one quiet one and one where he left early due to injury. He's now dealing with a concussion that has his status for Week 5 up in the air. Chase's reign atop the fantasy WR ranks may be coming to an end in 2026.
