Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey will open the regular season in Kansas City on Monday Night Football. The 25-year-old is expected to specialize as the pass-catching running back in a crowded room after the team brought back J.K. Dobbins and drafted Jonah Coleman in the fourth round. Harvey finished his rookie season as the […]

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (knee) looks likely to play Sunday against Detroit, but that does not make him a good fantasy start. Kamara practiced fully on Friday after being limited the previous two days, though he remains questionable with the knee injury that kept him out for most of training camp. The […]

Kansas City Chiefs rookie running back Emmett Johnson will man the RB2 role against the Denver Broncos in Week 1. Johnson has impressed throughout training camp and the preseason and has established himself as the RB2 on the Kansas City depth chart. It remains to be seen how much run he will get behind the […]

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kenneth Walker will make his Chiefs debut against the Denver Broncos on Monday night in Week 1. Walker recently had an injury scare when he missed practice due to a foot issue, but it was stated to be an issue with his cleat that has since been resolved. Walker was […]

The 2026 NFL season has arrived, and Week 1 offers a full slate of opportunities in the touchdown market. Rather than chasing the shortest prices, we're focusing on players whose roles, matchup, and usage create value at the number. As always, the key with volatile markets like touchdown props is price sensitivity. A player can […]

The 2026 NFL season hasn't fully started yet -- we've had two games so far, but the first full Sunday slate of contests is yet to come. While there isn't any room on your roster after the draft if you drafted healthy players, if you drafted any that are on IR, you immediately have extra spots to […]

New Orleans Saints running back Travis Etienne Jr. should still be in fantasy lineups Sunday against Detroit, even with Alvin Kamara expected to return. Kamara practiced fully Friday after missing most of camp with an MCL sprain, but he is still listed as questionable and is not expected to handle a big role right away. […]

New Orleans Saints running back Audric Estime (thigh) has been placed on injured reserve, according to Ross Jackson. The Saints later announced the move Saturday. Estime did not practice Wednesday, Thursday or Friday and had already been ruled out for Sunday's opener against Detroit. Now he will miss at least four games. His path to […]

Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins opens the season in a rough spot against Jacksonville. Judkins is first on Cleveland's depth chart after running 230 times for 827 yards and seven touchdowns in 14 games as a rookie, so the early-down work should still be there. The matchup is the problem. Jacksonville led the NFL […]

Tennessee Titans rookie running back Nicholas Singleton, the 165th overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft in April in the fifth round from Penn State, enters his first year in the NFL as the team's No. 3 RB behind Tony Pollard and Tyjae Spears. Singleton is not rostered in most standard-sized, single-year fantasy leagues, but […]

The first Sunday Night Football matchup of the 2026 NFL season pits two longtime rivals, the New York Giants and the Dallas Cowboys, against each other. With several viable fantasy stars in this matchup, let's lock in your lineups with our Week 1 SNF start-sit chart. In addition to our start/sit recommendation and matchup ratings […]

Atlanta Falcons running back Brian Robinson will complement Bijan Robinson in the backfield for Sunday's road matchup against the Steelers. That role could be a lucrative one, as last year's RB2 in Atlanta, Tyler Allgeier, racked up eight rushing touchdowns, much to the dismay of Bijan Robinson managers. Though Robinson Jr. had a career-low 400 rushing […]

The Green Bay Packers' backfield is in flux entering their Week 1 season-opening matchup against the Minnesota Vikings, with starting running back Josh Jacobs on the commissioner's exempt list for the foreseeable future due to legal issues. That will give Chris Brooks a bigger opportunity than usual to begin the regular season, but as the […]

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams is the unquestioned workhorse RB for his team. Last season, he handled a large workload, with 252 carries and 35 receptions in 16 games played. The strength of the team's offensive line and his success with breaking tackles aided him to an RB12 overall finish despite missing one game. […]

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. is an interesting fantasy option entering Week 1 against the Cleveland Browns. The 25-year-old back played well in college at Kentucky while playing in Liam Coen's offense, so the two reuniting is an interesting storyline. Rodriguez Jr. has shown signs of being a good rusher in the NFL, […]

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill won the backup running back job to Derrick Henry, but his role will be limited with Henry starting the season healthy in Week 1. Hill has shown nice change of pace in the backfield in the past and can catch passes out of the backfield, but with Henry healthy, […]

Running back Kaleb Johnson will make his debut with the Green Bay Packers in a Week 1 matchup with the Minnesota Vikings to begin the 2026 season. The Pittsburgh Steelers traded Johnson to the Packers in late August. With running back Josh Jacobs on the Commissioner's Exempt List, the Packers will rely on a committee […]

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson is coming off a strong 2025 campaign in which he finished as the No. 4 running back in fantasy despite seeing his rushing touchdowns go from 14 the year before to just seven last season. That is because of a major uptick in usage in the passing game, nearly […]

New York Jets running back Braelon Allen returns after a knee injury limited his 2025 season to four games. Allen carried only 18 times for 76 yards and a touchdown while catching two passes for 17 yards before the injury, then showed some burst again during the preseason. His Week 1 role remains the bigger […]

New York Jets running back Breece Hall is set for Sunday's opener at Tennessee after recovering from a groin strain that interrupted his preseason. Hall practiced fully during the week and carries no injury designation, with offensive coordinator Frank Reich indicating that the Jets plan to use him normally. Hall is coming off his first […]

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo has been fully cleared for Week 1 against the Dallas Cowboys. Skattebo suffered a gruesome ankle injury in Week 8 of the 2025 season but has not missed any time during training camp and appears ready for the regular season. During his rookie season, Skattebo carried the ball […]

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook III returns to Houston after rushing for 116 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries against the Texans last November. Cook went on to lead the NFL with 1,621 rushing yards in 2025, averaging 5.2 yards per carry while scoring 12 times on the ground. He also caught 33 […]

Week 1 running back decisions are always a little uncomfortable. We have depth charts, preseason usage, coach comments, and injury reports, but we still have not seen most of these backfields play a real game together. That is where this list comes in. Nobody needs to be told to start Bijan Robinson. These are the […]

Football is back. Finally, the long wait is over, and we were treated to two games before the main Week 1 slate. The Patriots failed to get their revenge on the Seahawks, while the 49ers shocked everyone by handing the juggernaut Rams a convincing defeat in Australia. But now, it's time for the rest of […]

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten will look to prove he is capable of being a starter against the Cleveland Browns in year two under Liam Coen. Many fantasy managers are drafting him high due to his potential volume, but it will take a week of good production and good volume for managers to truly […]

Entering 2026, Detroit Lions running back Jacob Saylors appears poised to open the year as his team's RB2 behind superstar back Jahmyr Gibbs. Saylors appeared in 16 games for Detroit in 2025 but saw most of his action on special teams, recording just 11 rushing yards on two carries. However, with Lions running back Isiah […]

Entering 2026, Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs was widely viewed as the consensus 1.01 in fantasy drafts. The 24-year-old had a monster year in 2025, recording 1,839 scrimmage yards and 18 touchdowns on 320 touches across 17 games. Gibbs may be in line for an even larger role in the Lions' offense this season. […]

Arizona Cardinals running back Tyler Allgeier should see the lion's share of backfield work in Sunday's season opener. Allgeier and Jeremiyah Love (ankle) were expected to work in a timeshare to start the season, but the rookie's high ankle sprain has further clouded an already unclear picture of how the duo's duties would be split. […]

Arizona Cardinals running back Jeremiyah Love (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's season opener against the Los Angeles Chargers. According to Josh Weinfuss of ESPN, the rookie is expected to play, though head coach Mike LaFleur described the situation as a game-time decision. Even if Love is active on Sunday, Tyler Allgeier is expected […]
