BALLER MOVE: Sit
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB4
ANALYSIS: New Cincinnati Bengals running back Khalil Herbert will join lead RB Chase Brown and fill in as a backup due to the injury to Zack Moss (neck), who's expected to miss the rest of the season with a neck injury. Herbert gets a nice change of scenery after being essentially sent to the doghouse in Chicago.

The former Chicago Bear is a talented runner, but he's a brand new member of the team, and he'll likely be involved minimally in his first game action in Cincy. The move by the Bengals was intended to add depth at a position in which they needed more -- third-stringer Trayveon Williams and fourth man up Kendall Milton aren't seen as viable backup options.
It's possible he could develop a decent role with time, but for now, he's best viewed as a handcuff option. Fantasy managers who have Brown should consider picking him up, and he should probably be rostered in deeper leagues, but it's hard to see him being fantasy relevant in Week 10.
