Should I Start Kareem Hunt for Fantasy Football?

After returning to Cleveland in Week 3, Hunt has only managed 60 carries, 196 rushing yards, six receptions, and 58 receiving yards in six games. However, he does have five touchdowns.

Hunt takes a four-game touchdown streak into a Week 9 divisional matchup against Baltimore. In their first meeting back in Week 4, Hunt had 12 yards on five carries and zero receptions. Although it was only his second game back in the mix, it was in line with how he's historically played against Baltimore. Over the previous two seasons, Hunt has only mustered 20, 18, eight, and 27 total yards in four games against the Ravens.

For fantasy purposes, he's entirely touchdown-dependent. Sit him this week.

Hunt is RB32 in our half-PPR consensus staff rankings.

Should I Start Jerome Ford for Fantasy Football?

The other option in Cleveland's backfield is rookie Jerome Ford, who has received consistent touches since Nick Chubb was injured in Week 2. In eight games this season, Ford has amassed 425 yards on 107 carries, and 139 yards on 20 receptions.

Last week, Ford collected 44 yards on 20 carries and 33 yards on five catches. He has become a consistent presence in the Browns' offense and should continue to be involved Sunday in Baltimore.

However, the Ravens are far from an ideal matchup for Ford. He was held to 26 yards on nine carries and 19 yards on five catches in Week 4. Baltimore held Seattle to just 28 total rushing yards last week and has allowed an average of 80.8 rushing yards at home this season.

Keep Ford on your bench, if you can afford to. He is RB28 in our half-PPR consensus staff rankings.

Should I Start Brian Robinson Jr. for Fantasy Football?

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. is fresh off one of his better performances of the season. The former Alabama standout picked up 63 yards and a touchdown on 18 carries at New England in Week 9. He also had one catch for four yards.

Although Antonio Gibson is taking away some touches, Robinson Jr. has led the backfield in carries every week this season. He's also logged double-digit carries in seven of nine games and has a touchdown in two of the last three games.

Robinson Jr. could be in line for a big day in Week 10 at Seattle. The Seahawks are coming off a game in which they gave up 298 rushing yards to Baltimore. They've also allowed opponents to collect an average of 122 rushing yards per game this season.

Start Robinson Jr. He is the RB22 in our half-PPR consensus staff rankings.
