Week 4 of the 2025 NFL season is upon us and the action will kick off on Thursday night with the Seattle Seahawks visiting the Arizona Cardinals in an NFC West showdown at 8:15 p.m. ET on Prime Video.
The Seahawks were able to improve to 2-1 for the season this past Sunday, steamrolling the winless Saints in a 44-13 blowout victory. Seattle dominated New Orleans in all three phases of the game and rookie wide receiver Tory Horton made his presence felt in two of them.
Below, we’ll go over Horton’s outlook in fantasy football for Week 4.
Fantasy Football analysis: Seahawks WR Tory Horton
Horton had himself a day against the Saints on Sunday, catching three passes for 32 yards and a touchdown on offense and brought the Lumen Field crown to their feet with a 95-yard punt return touchdown in the first quarter. That allowed for him to finish as the No. 6 fantasy wideout in standard leagues for the week with 15.6 points while his 18.2 points in PPR was good for 14th.
On offense, it marked the second straight game where he produced a receiving touchdown. Something to note is that his score against the Steelers came from 21 yards while his TD reception against the Saints was for 14 yards, so he could be emerging as a viable red-zone target for Sam Darnold. Keep that in mind.
Start or sit in Week 4 PPR leagues?
Sit. Even with his performances over the past two weeks, I need to see more from Horton before I’m comfortable with giving him a starting spot, especially on a Thursday night. He has a measly eight targets through three games and while he’s certainly made the most of those opportunities, I’d like to see more consistent looks for him and that will be hard when he’s running routes next to Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp. Sit for now, but still keep an eye out for him.
Start or sit in Week 3 standard leagues?
Sit. On top of his lack of targets, it’s a tall order to ask him to deliver magic on special teams every week as well. Sit him here too.
