Another week is upon us as we're approaching the end of the regular season in most fantasy football formats. Bye weeks are in the rearview mirror, but we still have plenty of injured players and that makes staying informed on rankings all the more important. See below for our updated Week 12 fantasy football running back rankings, as of November 27th. Our goal is to help you set those winning lineups, so let's see where key running backs like Josh Jacobs, Jonathan Taylor, Rachaad White, Gus Edwards, and Latavius Murray rank, among others.
Our running back fantasy football rankings are put together by Nick Mariano, Brandon Murchison, and Andersen Pickard.
