Joe Mixon In Search Of First Rushing Touchdown

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has yet to run in a touchdown in 2019. Though he has three scores through the air on the year, he continues to disappoint while playing behind arguably the worst offensive line in the league. With A.J. Green (ankle) still out of the equation, the pressure will be on […]

Darrell Henderson Shouldn't See Lineups

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson falls back with the return of Malcolm Brown (ankle) this week. Henderson and Brown should share the work behind starter Todd Gurley. Henderson is worth a spot on your roster if you have room. He could provide insurance for Gurley or become depth should another injury arise. However, […]

Todd Gurley Has Tough Draw

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley continues to find ways to contribute most weeks, and his six total touchdowns over the last four games have been the remedy. The problem is that his receiving numbers are way down, and he's only averaging 3.9 yards per carry. Those TDs are keeping him afloat, and it's […]

Malcolm Brown Ready

Los Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown (ankle) practiced in full Thursday and Friday, and he's ready to return in Week 10. Rookie Darrell Henderson didn't do enough in Brown's absence to usurp him as starting running back Todd Gurley's backup. Brown and Henderson will likely share the duties to a degree, which makes both […]

Roll With Kenyan Drake As A Flex

Arizona Cardinals running back Kenyan Drake is in a peculiar situation in Week 10. All-Pro running back David Johnson (ankle) is back, and the team has been coy in discussing their plans for the backfield. The matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers isn't a great one, either, but Drake could be leaned upon heavily in […]

David Johnson Good To Go

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (ankle) practiced in full all week and is good to go for Week 10. It will be very interesting to see how the team uses him and Kenyan Drake together. Johnson is an elite back that can produce on the ground and through the air, and Drake is more […]

Chase Edmonds Out Again

Arizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds (hamstring) didn't practice all week and has been ruled out for Week 10. Edmonds lost most of his roster viability with Kenyan Drake's acquisition, and he'll need one of the top two backs to go down for it to rekindle. Unless you're in a deeper league, Edmonds can be […]

Alexander Mattison Not An Option

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison remains a risky option in fantasy. He's averaging 4.7 yards per carry, but he has just one touchdown and doesn't contribute in the passing game. The Dallas Cowboys haven't been as good against the position as they were earlier in the season, and they're a midrange matchup for him. […]

Le'Veon Bell "Looks Good" For Sunday

Despite wearing a questionable tag for the Jets' Week 10 tilt with the Giants, Adam Gase said that "it looks good for Bell" for Sunday, per New York Post Jets beat reporter Brian Costello. The Jets did sign Josh Adams from the practice squad earlier in the week, which cast some doubt over Bell's status, […]

Latavius Murray A Flex Option In Week 10

New Orleans Saints running back Latavius Murray will face the Atlanta Falcons in Week 10. The 29-year-old compiled at least 150 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns in both games without starter Alvin Kamara. Kamara said he wouldn't kind sharing more touches with Murray-and Coach Sean Payton seemed to endorse the idea. It's good news for […]

Alvin Kamara Good To Go For Matchup Against Atlanta

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle, knee) is good to go for Sunday's matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. It's a great welcome back to the lineup spot for Kamara, as the Falcons rank 21st in the league in rushing yards allowed. The 24-year-old has averaged 20 touches per game this year and has […]

Jaylen Samuels An RB2 In Week 10

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Samuels will get the starting nod for a second straight week with the announcement that James Conner (knee) will miss the game against the LA Rams. Samuels was the key to the offense in Week 9's win over the Colts, catching 13 passes for 73 yards. While he rushed for […]

James Conner Out Against Rams

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) is confirmed out against the LA Rams on Sunday, according to the team. Conner was limited in practice all week after missing Week 9's win over the Colts, and he'll be sidelined yet again in Week 10. Benny Snell Jr. (knee) will also miss, so that propels Jaylen […]

Buys and Sells - The King's Trade Targets for Week 10

The fantasy football trade deadline is quickly approaching in many leagues, and it should be stirring some extra heat under some owners. Many are making deals to simply get through Week 10, but more successful seasonal fantasy players are trying to complete trades for the future. If your team has four to five wins after […]

Alvin Kamara Willing To Share Carries With Latavius Murray

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara is comfortable sharing carries with fellow back Latavius Murray, per ESPN's Mike Triplett. In two games without Kamara, Murray racked up over 150 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns in each of them, earning himself a bigger slice. Expect touches to look something similar to last year's timeshare, where […]

Fantasy Football Mailbag - Robert Woods, DK Metcalf, Mark Andrews

This article's content may vary week-to-week, but generally, it will be answering questions fielded from either the @RotoBallerNFL twitter account or my personal one (@RotoSurgeon). This week, the focus is on start/sit questions, and there were plenty. Every week, many of us struggle with which quarterback to start, or who to flex, and I am […]

Nick Chubb a Solid RB1 in Week 10

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb draws a plus matchup against a struggling Buffalo Bills run defense in Week 10. Buffalo's run defense ranks 30th in the league in DVOA, while their pass defense has been tough, which means fantasy owners can expect a heavy dose of Chubb this weekend. The only issue at hand […]

Tarik Cohen Will Need Touchdown To Be Fantasy Worthy

Chicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen has endured a frustrating offensive season through the first eight games but will take on a leaky Lions run defense in Week 10. The Lions are allowing the most fantasy points to opposing backs and seven different runners have posted more than 100 yards from scrimmage against them. Despite […]

Austin Ekeler Scampers In For A Touchdown

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler has seen his usage drop like a rock since Melvin Gordon returned to the team, but he's still an incredibly talented player who can make things happen. On Thursday night, Ekeler was the man who brought LA back into the game when he darted into the end zone […]

David Montgomery Should Feast On Lions In Week 10

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery's arrow is pointing up as he prepares to take on a vulnerable Lions Defense in Week 10. The rookie running back has amassed 223 yards from scrimmage with three touchdowns over his last two games. Now he will get a Lions defense that has allowed the most fantasy points […]

Melvin Gordon Impresses In Loss

Coming into Thursday night's game in Oakland, Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon had the biggest uphill battle. The Raiders secondary has been atrocious while their run defense has been acceptable, so the thought was that Gordon might be in for a test. Instead, he proved to be one of the only bright spots […]

Josh Jacobs Salvages Day With Late TD

Oakland Raiders running back Josh Jacobs couldn't get much going versus the Chargers through the first three quarters, but his 18-yard TD with a minute left salvaged his performance. His game-winning score helped him total 71 yards on 16 carries in the team's 26-24 win as he added another 30 yards through the air with […]

Marlon Mack Gets A Boost In Week 10

Indianapolis Colts running back Marlon Mack has been consistent in fantasy for this season, but he hasn't had an overwhelming ceiling on a weekly basis. In Week 10, that can all change. The Miami Dolphins are allowing over 110 yards per game on the ground, and they're giving up over four yards per carry. Quarterback […]

Dalvin Cook Remains A High-End RB1 Against Cowboys

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook had 116 scrimmage yards and four catches in Week 9, but it was a bit of a disappointing game given the extremely forgiving matchup. The Cowboys Defense await in Week 10, a unit that held Saquon Barkley to 28 rushing yards in Week 9 and hasn't given up a […]

Alvin Kamara, Jared Cook Good To Go In Week 10

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee, ankle) was a full participant in the team's practice on Thursday. Tight end Jared Cook (ankle) and wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith (ankle) were also full participants. The Saints offense is now back at full strength ahead of a home matchup against the Atlanta Falcons, which could produce […]

James Conner, Trey Edmunds, Benny Snell Out Thursday

Pittsburgh Steelers running backs James Conner (shoulder), Trey Edmunds (ribs) and Benny Snell Jr. (knee) all missed practice on Thursday. Edmunds and Snell haven't practiced yet this week, while Conner was downgraded after a limited practice Wednesday. Conner isn't expected to play in Week 10 against the Rams, and both Edmunds and Snell are on […]

Ito Smith Remains Out Thursday

Atlanta Falcons running back Ito Smith (neck) missed practice for the second straight day on Thursday. It looks like Smith will miss his second straight game despite having last week's bye to rest up. Smith had very little standalone value as Devonta Freeman's backup when healthy. Brian Hill will serve change-of-pace duties if Smith is […]
