Week 7 Running Back Outlooks for Fantasy Football

Tank Bigsby, Jacksonville Jaguars - Fantasy Football Outlook

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby has the potential for a big day in relief of Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) in Week 7 against the New England Patriots. The starting veteran back out of Clemson is unlikely to play with a hamstring injury.

Bigsby is in line for more touches with Etienne and is expected to miss Sunday's game against New England. Bigsby should get most of the work and be a high-upside RB2 in a great matchup.

D'Ernest Johnson should also compete for touches, but when healthy, Bigsby has certainly earned the opportunity to shine no matter who is available in Week 7.

Josh Jacobs, Green Bay Packers - Fantasy Football Outlook

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs has been solid yet unspectacular this season. He will get another opportunity to get into the scoring column as the Packers host the Houston Texans in Week 7. Jacobs has gotten the lion's share of opportunity as the top rusher in Green Bay but has parlayed that into just one top-12 fantasy week in six games.

He's been a high-floor, low-ceiling option at running back and has just one touchdown to his credit in Week 5 against the Rams. With both offenses stacked with options, it could be the running backs, namely Jacobs, that turn the tide and become the difference, as the Texans have allowed the fourth-most yards after contact per attempt, and Jacobs has been solid (29th of 61 qualified backs) in that regard. Look for Jacobs to be on that low-end RB/high-end RB2 line in Week 7 for fantasy purposes.

- Kevin Tompkins, RotoBaller

David Montgomery, Detroit Lions - Fantasy Football Outlook

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery faces a tough matchup against the Minnesota Vikings in Week 7, a defense that allows the second-fewest rushing yards per game (67.2) and the second-lowest yards per carry (3.6).

Despite the difficult opponent, Montgomery has been a steady producer, averaging 17 touches and 89 total yards per game while ranking fourth in total touchdowns with six scores this season. Over his last three games, he's posted 225 rushing yards, four touchdowns, and 52.2 fantasy points (17.4 per game).

Montgomery's consistency and role in the Lions' offense make him a solid RB1, even with the tough matchup. However, it's important to temper expectations against Minnesota's run defense, which also allows the lowest explosive run rate in the league. Similar to Gibbs, a breakout game is arguably unlikely.
