Leonard Fournette Rushes For 72 Yards

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette failed to hit the century mark on the ground against New Orleans after hitting it in his previous two outings. The day wasn't a complete failure despite his team falling to the Saints, however, as the 24-year-old had 20 touches for 72 yards on the day in addition to […]

Auden Tate With A Game-High 12 Targets

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Auden Tate led the way offensively in the loss to Baltimore, finishing with five receptions for 91 yards on a game-high 12 targets. With Joe Mixon and Tyler Boyd unable to get anything going, Tate was the only bright spot offensively for the Bengals on the day. However, with veteran A.J. […]

Joe Mixon's Frustrating Season Continues

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon was virtually lifeless in the loss to the Ravens on Sunday. After rushing for a season-high 93 yards on 19 carries, things appeared to be trending in the right direction for the 23-year-old. However, after finishing with just 10 yards on eight attempts while scrounging up a few receptions, […]

Andy Dalton Rushes For A Score

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Andy Dalton went 21-for-39 for 235 yards and an interception on Sunday against the Ravens. While he didn't throw a touchdown in this one, he did manage to rush one in late in the fourth quarter. The Bengals winless season continues, but the veteran quarterback can't take all of the blame as […]

Peyton Barber Unable To Get Going In Week 6

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber was unable to get anything going against the Panthers in Week 6, gaining just 28 yards on 10 carries on the day. Barber did get more carries than backfield mate Ronald Jones II, but could not find any holes and was otherwise a non-factor in what turned out […]

Ronald Jones II Underwhelms In Week 6

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II was unable to get going Sunday, gaining only 10 yards on four carries, but did score a touchdown to save his day. Jones again fell victim to the Bucs unpredictable backfield rotation after starting to seemingly separate himself from the pack, seeing fewer snaps and touches than […]

Christian McCaffrey Goes For Two Touchdowns

Carolina Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey recorded just 57 total yards against Tampa Bay on Sunday, but still managed to find the end zone twice in Week 6. While McCaffrey was stuffed by the Buccaneers Defense by rushing for an abysmal 31 yards on 22 attempts, he offset his shoddy numbers with a touchdown run […]

Alvin Kamara Officially Active For Week 6

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is active against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Kamara gets a juicy matchup in Week 6, though he might be limited. Even if he has a smaller role, he should still put up RB1 numbers against Jacksonville.

Rashaad Penny Inactive Against Browns

Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny (hamstring) is ruled out for Week 6 against the Cleveland Browns. The 23-year-old has now missed three games this year with the injury and will likely carry a questionable tag heading into next week. Penny's absence will mean more touches for starter Chris Carson. C.J. Prosise will backup Carson […]

Cardinals Still Hoping David Johnson Plays

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson (back) still has a shot at playing against the Falcons. While Johnson wasn't able to practice on Wednesday or Thursday, he did suit up on Friday to participate in a limited capacity. If he is out, Chase Edmonds will handle the bulk of the carries out of the backfield, […]

Alvin Kamara Likely To Play

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is likely to play against the Jaguars. After practicing in a limited capacity on Thursday, while alarming fantasy managers after being held out on Friday, the 24-year-old should be good to go for the Week 6 showdown with Jacksonville. Kamara has a favorable matchup on Sunday, with […]

Todd Gurley Officially Out

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley (quadriceps) will not play against San Francisco.
