While many fantasy gamers fell just short of winning a championship, there are still DFS contests and playoff fantasy football leagues to compete in. That said, we're providing rankings throughout the postseason, starting with our updated Divisional Round fantasy football running back rankings, as of January 19th. Our goal is to help you set those winning lineups and win DFS contests, so let's see where key running backs like Tony Pollard, Miles Sanders, Jerick McKinnon, James Cook, and Elijah Mitchell rank, among others.
Our running back fantasy football rankings are put together by Nick Mariano, Brandon Murchison and Andersen Pickard. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will also find a summary of the important fantasy football injury news for this week. There are always key injuries to keep track of, so be sure to check back until kickoff.
You should also bookmark our fantasy football rankings portal and check back regularly for updates. In addition to these RB rankings, read our fantasy football articles and analysis - our NFL team discusses lineup sleepers, busts, NFL players to start and sit, waiver wire pickups and so much more. Most importantly, our brand new free mobile app is a must-have - download it and configure your notifications.
