BALLER MOVE: Start in All Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: High-end RB2
ANALYSIS: Chase Brown was a very popular zero-RB target in drafts this offseason. He was someone who flashed considerably as a rookie in 2023, and coming into this year he was set to have an expanded workload in a high-octane offense.
Through the first three weeks this was not coming to fruition, as newly acquired Zack Moss was out-touching Brown 41-19. The Bengals starting 0-3 must've signaled a change in offensive philosophy, because from that point forward, Brown has been the featured backfield player and one of the best assets in all of fantasy. The speedster from Illinois is the #4 overall back from Weeks 4-10, averaging 15.6 half-PPR points in that timespan.
This week brings a tough matchup against a Chargers run-stopping unit that is top-10 in nearly all rushing metrics and ranks first in touchdowns allowed with only three on the season. However, Brown played an even stingier rush defense last week in the Baltimore Ravens and still finished as Week 10's RB4 due to a career high nine receptions on 11 targets. He's seen 20 targets over the past three weeks, third at his position. Even in a tough matchup, Brown is a must-start player given his utilization in the passing game.
