Zach Charbonnet Injury Update for Fantasy Football - December 6
In Week 14, Zach Charbonnet got a little banged up. Luckily, it doesn't appear to be serious. Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said Charbonnet has a bruise, which is a lot less severe than any kind of structural damage to his bones or tendons.
DeeJay Dallas is next on the Seahawks' depth chart, but Kenneth Walker III could be back by next week, which would diminish Charbonnet's workload even if he is healthy.
Zach Charbonnet Fantasy Football Outlook
Charbonnet has rushed for over 40 yards in each of the past three games, and he has been a starting-caliber fantasy running back. But he saw increased playing time in those three games because of the injury to Kenneth Walker III.
Walker only played four snaps before having to leave the game against the Rams in Week 11, and he was inactive the past two weeks.
Charbonnet has averaged 13.3 PPR points in games in which he was the starting running back and only 6.0 points per game when he was the No. 2 behind Kenneth Walker III. He is only averaging about 3.3 yards per attempt in the past three games, so he hasn't made a clear case to split carries.
In Week 14, the Seahawks have a tough matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. The Niners are allowing the fewest rushing yards per game and the second-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs.
Not only do opposing running backs gain few yards against the 49ers, they also don't run the ball often. The 49ers are the only team with fewer than 200 RB carries against them. That's because they are almost always in the lead, usually by a large margin.
Charbonnet is a low-level flex starter if KWIII is injured, but he must be benched if KWIII returns to health.
