Gavin Freeman - Scores in Saturday's win Freeman gathered in 6 of 9 targets for 59 yards and one touchdown during Saturday's 23-13 win against Colorado.

Impact Freeman had another high volume day Saturday, and he also found the endzone in the second quarter on a four-yard reception. While he was certainly productive in the two games with DJ Lagway, his production with Lagway has been special. He has 18 catches (on 27 targets) for 213 yards and two touchdowns through two games with Lagway under center, both of which came against Power 4 opponents. Freeman is one of the top fantasy receivers in the nation right now, especially in PPR formats.

Jayden McGowan - Quiet in Saturday's win McGowan accrued two receptions (on four targets) for 34 yards during Saturday's 23-13 victory over Colorado.

Impact McGowan, who caught two touchdowns in each of his last two appearances, came back down to earth Saturday with DJ Lagway back at quarterback. He caught two of his four targets for a modest output and was unable to find the endzone in the relatively low scoring affair. He'll look to bounce back Saturday at Arizona State.

Dawson Pendergrass - 85 yards in win Pendergrass posted 16 carries for 85 yards and hauled in 0 of 1 targets for zero yards during Saturday's 23-13 victory against Colorado.

Impact Pendergrass got a big workload once again Saturday, taking 16 carries for 85 yards in the win. He has received 15 carries in each of the first four games of this season, a level of consistency that is difficult to find. He has not been very productive with that workload though, as he's averaging just 4.0 yards per carry and has found the endzone just once. He remains a high floor asset heading into the heart of conference play.

DJ Lagway - Throws two TDs in return Lagway was 19-for-39 passing for 221 yards, two touchdowns and one interception during Saturday's 23-13 win versus Colorado.

Impact Lagway made his return to the field Saturday after missing the previous two games with an ankle injury. He was definitely not at his best as he completed under 50 percent of his passes, but he did enough to secure the win, including two scoring drives in the fourth quarter. Next up is the first conference road game of the season, at Arizona State on Saturday.

DJ Lagway - Available for Week 4 Lagway (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against Colorado, Zach Smith of the Waco Tribune reports.

Impact Lagway can return following a two-game absence caused by an injured ankle, and he will look to help Baylor's team begin its conference schedule strong. Back in 2025, he completed 160 passes for 1,754 yards and nine touchdowns across SEC matchups. Lagway will look to prove that he has cleaned up his turnover rate (9-12 TD-INT ratio last season) and efficiency for a Baylor team expecting him to break out of his previous funk.

Jadon Porter - Good to go Saturday Porter (undisclosed) will be available for Saturday's game versus Colorado, Zach Smith of the Waco Tribune reports.

Impact Porter was labeled probable leading up to the tilt, so his availability doesn't come as a big surprise. The junior posted a strong start against Auburn, racking up five catches for 77 yards on 10 targets, but he left early in Week 2 and missed Week 3, so Saturday will be his first chance to add to the total from the opener.

DJ Lagway - Expected to be available Week 4 Lagway (ankle) is expected to be available for Saturday's game against Colorado, Pete Nakos of On3.com reports.

Impact After a two-game absence, Week 4 is projected to mark Lagway's return from an ankle injury. The junior will have little leeway in his return, as he and Baylor will prepare to begin their 2026 season's conference schedule. On the plus side, Lagway's only game this season saw him face Power Conference team Auburn and showcase some of his talent by completing 27 passes for 333 yards and one touchdown. Ideally for him, he can clean up his completion percentage and turnover rate (50.0 percent and two TOs respectively) as the campaign progresses.

Jadon Porter - Probable for Week 4 Porter (undisclosed) is listed as probable ahead of Saturday's matchup against Colorado.

Impact After missing last week's matchup against Louisiana Tech, Porter is expected to play Saturday against the Buffaloes. The wide receiver has recorded five catches for 77 yards through two games this season.

DJ Lagway - Officially listed as probable Lagway (ankle) is probable for Saturday's game against Colorado, per the Big 12 availability report.

Impact Lagway's probable tag makes sense after an earlier report mentioned that he was given the "green light" to return against Colorado. Nate Bennett served as the starter in his absence but will return to the backup role. Lagway was impressive in his only appearance of the season during the opener, tossing two touchdowns despite dealing with an ankle injury.
