BALLER MOVE: Start in 10+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2
ANALYSIS: Since battling an ankle injury last month, Jerome Ford has regained the clear lead back role in the Cleveland backfield over the last two weeks. While fellow Browns RB Kareem Hunt is still swiping some valuable red zone work, Ford has toted the rock a healthy 37 times across Cleveland's last two games.

The second-year back has been productive and most recently rushed for 107 yards in a tough Week 10 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. With Cleveland quarterback Deshaun Watson now lost for the year, we can expect the Browns to continue to lean on the ground game in their Week 11 divisional clash with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
It's a sneaky good spot for Ford, as the Steelers have been leaky against the run in 2023. Pittsburgh is one of just six NFL teams that has allowed over 1,000 rushing yards to opposing backs. While Hunt's nagging red zone presence is frustrating, Ford is the player to own in this Browns backfield and his fantasy managers can confidently lock him into their RB2 roster slot this week.
