Updated Week 15 fantasy football running back rankings as of December 15th, 2022. Set your winning lineups with our Week 15 NFL rankings for fantasy football.

The running back position has been tough to navigate this season thanks to injuries, role changes, and early fantasy draft picks becoming busts. The fantasy football playoffs are here, so there's still time to make the right choice in lineups at the position. We're back with our updated Week 15 fantasy football running back rankings, as of December 15th, 2022. Our goal is to help you set those winning lineups, so let's see where key running backs like Kenneth Walker III, J.K. Dobbins, Jeff Wilson, Zonovan Knight, and Rex Burkhead rank, among others.

Our running back fantasy football rankings are put together by Nick Mariano, Brandon Murchison, 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 RB 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.
