BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3
ANALYSIS: With at least one more week until Kyren Williams is eligible to return from Injured Reserve, the Los Angeles Rams will again turn to the combination of Darrell Henderson Jr. and Royce Freeman at the running back position. It's been a fairly even split between the two of late and they each had 12 touches in L.A.'s most recent outing.
Henderson does hold the slight edge due to his role in the Rams' passing game. He's reeled in six of seven targets for 75 receiving yards since joining his first action of 2023 in Week 7. The veteran's average yards per carry has dipped with each passing week and settled at a paltry 1.9 yards per attempt in a Week 9 loss to the Packers.
Who started Darrell Henderson Jr? 🙋
— SleeperNFL (@SleeperNFL) October 22, 2023
He draws a middling matchup in Week 11 against a Seattle Seahawks unit that's allowing less than 4.0 yards per carry but has been susceptible to pass-catching backs. With Matthew Stafford returning for this one, there's a chance that D-Hendo could make some plays through the air. With four teams on bye this week, strapped fantasy managers can consider Henderson a fringe RB3 and take a stab with him in deeper leagues.
