Some notable running backs should be back from bye weeks or injuries this week, but the position as a whole is always scarce and banged up. That said, fantasy managers should be prepared to take a deep dive into our Week 7 fantasy football running back rankings, as of October 19th. We're right in the middle of fantasy football season, so winning your matchup has never been more important. Returning injured running backs or guys with new roles like Jonathan Taylor, D'Andre Swift, Breece Hall, Dameon Pierce, and Brian Robinson will be factors in Week 7.
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.
