Matt Breida Questionable To Face Ravens

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida (ankle) was limited in practice all week and is questionable for Week 13 against the Ravens. Breida could be a game-time decision for this one. If he's active, he'll split touches with Tevin Coleman, making him more of an RB2/3 against a tough defense, although Baltimore has been […]

Connor Williams Out For The Year

Dallas Cowboys left guard Connor Williams (knee) suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee on Thanksgiving Day and will be out for the rest of the season, according to sources. Williams missed one game because of surgery to his left knee. He'll be replaced by Xavier Su'a-Filo the rest of the way. […]

Eagles Reach Extension With Lane Johnson

The Philadelphia Eagles agreed to a four-year, $72 million contract extension with right tackle Lane Johnson on Friday, according to sources. The deal includes $54.595 million guaranteed and is the largest contract for an NFL offensive lineman in history on a per-year and guarantee basis. Johnson has earned it, though, as he's been one of […]

Marlon Mack Officially Out For Week 13

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack (hand) missed practice all week and has officially been ruled out for Week 13 against the Titans. Mack wasn't expected to return this weekend, but he'll have a chance to return as the lead back in Week 14. With Mack sidelined last Thursday, Jonathan Williams was the clear lead […]

Duke Johnson Has Little Upside In Week 13

Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson has been a non-factor over the past couple of games, and while the game script could favor him over starting running back Carlos Hyde in Week 13 against the Patriots, New England's defense is too good for you to trust Johnson in your fantasy lineup. He's had just 12 […]

Carlos Hyde Is Risky Week 13 Start

Houston Texans running back Carlos Hyde has just one touchdown in his last five games, and there's no reason to think he finds the end zone on Sunday against a Patriots Defense that's allowed just one rushing score to an opposing running back all year. Consider Hyde an extremely risky play this week, someone whose […]

Jordan Scarlett Placed On Injured Reserve

The Carolina Panthers placed rookie running back Jordan Scarlett (knee) on Injured Reserve on Friday and signed offensive lineman Brad Lundblade to the active roster from the practice squad in a corresponding move. Scarlett, a fifth-round pick, only had four carries for nine yards on Oct. 27 against the 49ers for his only action in […]

Zach Ertz, Jordan Howard Questionable

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz (hamstring) and running back Jordan Howard (shoulder) were both limited in practice on Friday and are questionable for Week 13 against the Dolphins. There is optimism that Ertz will suit up after he practiced on Friday, but you'll need to check back for Sunday morning's inactives. Ertz continues to […]

James Conner Doubtful For Week 13

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) is doubtful to play in Week 13 against the Browns. Conner just isn't ready to return to the team's backfield, but Week 14 is a realistic target at this point. Continue to leave him on your bench. Pittsburgh's offense is a shell of its former self with wide […]

Derrick Henry On Track To Play

Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said that running back Derrick Henry (hamstring) has gotten the work that he needs this week and is on track to play in Week 13 against the Colts. Henry should suit up this Sunday and is a must-start RB1 after going for over 100 yards in back-to-back games while […]

Damien Williams Ruled Out

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams (ribs) has been ruled out for Week 13 against the Raiders. The backfield will feature LeSean McCoy, Darrel Williams and maybe Darwin Thompson against Oakland. With Shady and Williams potentially splitting touches down the middle, both will be on the RB2/3 borderline, with McCoy being the more attractive […]

Leonard Fournette Has Surprisingly Tough Matchup

You wouldn't usually associate Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense and good together, but this season the Bucs have allowed the third-fewest PPR points to opposing running backs. That puts Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette in a tough spot on Sunday. His volume should allow him to finish with solid numbers and his newfound usage as a […]

Austin Ekeler Could Be A Sleeper Against Denver

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler has been all over the map recently, but his performance last week should give owners hope that the LA coaching staff has figured out a better use for him. Ekeler only touched the ball five times a month ago, but he's topped 12 touches in two of the […]

Melvin Gordon Will Need To Carry The Team

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon has played very well over the last three games, but he's going to need to find a way to get it done against the strong Denver defense if LA has a chance of winning Sunday's game. With Philip Rivers struggling badly in the team's last two games, don't […]

Le'Veon Bell Still Searching For First 100-Yard Rushing Game

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell has been a bit of a disappointment for fantasy managers that invested an early pick on the former Steeler, but things could change in a big way this week for Bell vs a familiar opponent. Bell has struggled to run the ball this year playing behind a worse […]

Chris Thompson Expected To Play In Week 13

Washington Redskins running back Chris Thompson (toe) is expected to play in Week 13 against the Panthers. Thompson has been out since Week 6 with turf toe. His return will throw another wrench in a backfield that has already been rotating Derrius Guice and Adrian Peterson. Thompson is mostly a pass-catcher on third downs, but […]

Falcons Won't Make Coaching Change Before Week 14

The Atlanta Falcons won't make a coaching change before their Week 14 game, according to a source. The Falcons lost again on Thanksgiving night to the Saints and are now a disappointing 3-9 on the season and well out of playoff contention. Head coach Dan Quinn has been on the hot seat for much of […]

Cowboys Sticking With Jason Garrett

Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones said he is sticking with head coach Jason Garrett despite the team losing four of their last five games. "This is not the time for me [to make a coaching change]," Jones said. "I'm looking ahead at another ballgame. I'm looking ahead at winning four or five straight and helping […]

Jordan Howard Still Not Cleared For Contact

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard (shoulder) is still not cleared for contact on Friday, making it unlikely that he suits up for Week 13 against the Dolphins. You should be planning to be without Howard for the third straight game. That means that rookie Miles Sanders and Jay Ajayi should again share the backfield […]

Latavius Murray Disappoints Against Falcons

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray carried the ball four times for only two yards and wasn't targeted in the passing game in a 26-18 win over the Atlanta Falcons. The 29-year-old failed to find running room against the Falcons in what was his worst game of the year so far. Even worse, Murray […]

Alvin Kamara Fails To Find End Zone Again

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara posted 61 rushing yards on 11 attempts and caught four of eight targets for 23 yards in a 26-18 win over the Atlanta Falcons. Kamara came close to a touchdown on a couple of his carries, taking the ball inside the five-yard line. There's good news and bad […]

Saquon Barkley In Smash Spot On Sunday

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley gets a smash spot on Sunday against a Packers Defense that ranks 30th in points allowed to running backs in PPR leagues. So far this season, Barkley's upside has been limited by his surprising lack of usage in the passing game, but the Packers are getting burned routinely […]

Qadree Ollison Goes Without A Touch In Week 13

Atlanta Falcons running back Qadree Ollison had scored touchdowns in two straight weeks going into the team's Thanksgiving game against the Saints. However, the return of Devonta Freeman unfortunately moved Ollison out of the picture for now. Freeman earned 17 carries in the game and Brian Hill had four carries. It's disappointing to see for […]

Brian Hill Goes For Just 37 Yards In Week 13

Atlanta Falcons running back Brian Hill saw his workload decrease significantly with the return of Devonta Freeman. Hill earned just four carries in the game and gained only 13 yards on the ground. He also added three catches for 24 yards in the passing game. Freeman had 17 carries for 51 yards in the game. […]

Devonta Freeman Totals 64 Yards On Thanksgiving

Atlanta Falcons running back Devonta Freeman returned to his featured-back role this week after missing the past two games. He had 17 carries for 51 yards and added four catches for 13 yards in the game. Brian Hill was relegated to No. 2 status and only had four carries in the game, while Qadree Ollison, […]

Kareem Hunt a Solid Flex Option in Week 13

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt will face the Pittsburgh Steelers for the second time in three games this weekend. Hunt had a solid game in a Week 11 win over the Steelers, catching six passes for 46 yards. He will look for more of the same in Week 13 against a Pittsburgh run defense […]

Nick Chubb an RB1 in Week 13

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb came to life in the passing game in Week 12, hauling in three passes for a season-high 58 yards. He will travel to Pittsburgh to take on a tough Steelers run defense in Week 13. Pittsburgh's run defense ranks sixth in DVOA while allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points per […]

Bo Scarbrough Keeps On Trucking

Detroit Lions running back Bo Scarbrough rushed 21 times for 83 yards in the Lions Week 13 loss to the Bears. Scarbrough did post a 22-yard run on the day, which was technically his longest, but it was called back due to an illegal block by Kenny Golladay. Scarborough has taken control of the Lions […]

Devin Singletary Tallies 101 All-Purpose Yards In Week 13

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary carried the ball 14 times for 63 yards and also had three receptions for 38 yards and a touchdown during a 26-15 win over the Dallas Cowboys in Week 15. Singletary has surpassed Frank Gore on the depth chart, and the rookie has been productive over the past few […]
