Week 2 Half-PPR Running Back Rankings for Fantasy Football: AJ Dillon, Justice Hill, Joshua Kelley, Kyren Williams, more

AJ Dillon - Fantasy Football Rankings, Draft Sleepers, NFL Injury News

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Thursday is here, and we are back with more rankings. Today we will look at our Week 2 half-PPR running rankings for fantasy football as of September 14th. There are some key running back injuries fantasy managers need to monitor, such as Aaron Jones (hamstring) and Austin Ekeler (ankle). Our goal, as always, is to help you set those winning lineups, so let's see where key players such as D'Andre Swift, Zack Moss, Joshua Kelley, Kyren Williams, AJ Dillon, Tyler Allgeier, Breece Hall, and Roschon Johnson rank, among others.

Our half-PPR fantasy football rankings are put together by Nick Mariano, Brandon Murchinson, and Andersen Pickard. In addition to our staff rankings, below you will also find a summary of the important fantasy football injury news for this week. There are always key injuries to keep track of, so be sure to check back until kickoff.

You should also bookmark our fantasy football rankings portal and check back regularly for updates. In addition to these half-PPR rankings, read our fantasy football articles and analysis - our NFL team discusses lineup sleepers, busts, NFL players to start and sit, waiver wire pickups, and so much more. Most importantly, our brand new free mobile app is a must-have - download it and configure your notifications. We deliver all the top NFL news, injuries, and fantasy analysis 24x7 with our free push notification alerts!

You can also check out our Week 2 PPR rankings and Standard rankings.

Note that quarterbacks, defenses, and kickers are all grouped separately towards the bottom. Each of those positions is ranked on their own. This helps to compare running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends for FLEX spots (without QB, DEF, K mixed in).
