Los Angeles Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh said that it's "hard to predict how many a player is going to get" when asked about running back Omarion Hampton's declining snap count, per Alex Insdorf of the Guilty As Charged podcast. Across five games so far in 2026, Hampton has recorded 73 carries for 231 yards […]

Week 6 of the NFL season kicks off Thursday night as the reigning Super Bowl Champions will travel to Denver to face the Broncos. In addition to our start/sit recommendation and matchup ratings for each player, you can also read the fantasy football outlooks for key players like RJ Harvey, Emanuel Wilson, J.K. Dobbins, Jaylen […]

After a notable performance in Week 4, Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey was a non-factor during his team's win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Harvey recorded 17 total touches, including 10 receptions, for 93 total yards during a loss to the San Francisco 49ers two weeks ago, but failed to follow that solid effort […]

Arizona Cardinals first-round rookie running back Jeremiyah Love has seen limited involvement in the passing game through the first five games of his NFL career, and that might not be changing anytime soon given the team's issues on the offensive line when it comes to pass blocking, according to Darren Urban of the team's official […]

The Arizona Cardinals have signed running back Jerome Ford to their practice squad, the team announced Wednesday. Ford spent his first four NFL seasons with the Cleveland Browns before brief stops with Washington and Minnesota earlier this year. His most productive season came in 2023, when he started 12 games and rushed for 813 yards […]

It was a solid week for Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins, who was limited to just 3.8 yards per carry but managed to find the end zone during Denver's divisional win over the cellar-dwelling Los Angeles Chargers. Dobbins totaled 18 carries, which he took for 68 yards, including a long run of 14 yards. […]

Houston Texans running back David Montgomery (groin) was not practicing Wednesday, according to Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston, putting his availability for Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London in doubt. Montgomery suffered the injury during Houston's 26-3 victory over Tennessee, exiting in the second quarter after recording five carries for […]

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (hamstring) was not spotted at Wednesday's practice, according to Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice. Barkley hasn't played since suffering his hamstring injury during the opening quarter of Philadelphia's Week 4 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, and his availability for Sunday's matchup against Carolina remains uncertain. Head coach Nick Sirianni […]

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs remains worth holding in most 12-team fantasy leagues, even after spending the first five games of 2026 on the NFL's Commissioner's Exempt List. Head coach Matt LaFleur said Monday that the team had received no update on his status, and another complication emerged Tuesday when police delayed releasing […]

Tennessee Titans running back Tony Pollard (foot) is not present at the team's practice on Wednesday, according to Turron Davenport of ESPN. Pollard also missed practice last Wednesday before eventually returning to practice later in the week and playing in the Week 5 loss to the division-rival Houston Texans. The 29-year-old had 14 carries in […]

The Washington Commanders blundered away a chance at a win on Sunday. After going down with about nine seconds left in overtime, tied and well within field goal range, quarterback Jayden Daniels was lackadaisical in getting back to the line to spike the ball. He and his teammates didn't get set in time to stop […]

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner (foot) suffered a massive ankle injury in Week 3 of 2025 that saw him carted off the field, unable to walk under his own power. He was later placed on season-ending injured reserve. It seemed like it could be the end of his career, as he's now 31 years […]

Las Vegas Raiders head coach Klint Kubiak was asked about internal discussions of resting running back Ashton Jeanty in Week 6 against the Buffalo Bills, but he ultimately said that Jeanty will play, according to Levi Edwards of the team's official website. Jeanty was banged up last week and was listed as questionable going into […]

Seattle Seahawks rookie running back Jadarian Price (chest) is slated to miss at least two more games after being placed on injured reserve with a chest injury, but the running back room he returns to could look very different from the one he led at the start of the season. Zach Charbonnet (knee) had his […]

We're heading into Week 6 for fantasy football, and most of us are almost halfway through our regular season. We've entered the window where we need to decide if we're disappointed or concerned about well-known players who are underperforming. We can give grace to those we are disappointed in who may have had some bad […]

New York Jets running back Breece Hall (quadriceps) remains week-to-week, head coach Aaron Glenn told Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic. Hall has missed the last two games with a quad injury and is in danger of missing a third straight contest in Week 6 when the Jets take on the division-rival New England Patriots on […]

As if injuries weren’t a big enough obstacle course for fantasy managers to deal with, the byes are in full effect. This week, not only are four teams on bye, but some high-powered offenses will be sidelined. The Bengals, Lions, Vikings, and Dolphins are all off this week. While you may not love the look […]

Believe it or not, we've got five games in the history books, and the halfway mark of many fantasy football seasons is fast approaching as we preview Week 6 and beyond with an updated rest-of-season rankings sheet. Winners are starting to get comfortable (but not complacent!), and troubled teams are desperate for a win or […]

Cleveland Browns running back Dylan Sampson (knee) has been designated to return from Injured Reserve and will practice with the team on Wednesday, according to Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer. Sampson will return to practice this week, but that does not mean he will be officially activated from IR to play in […]

Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins (ankle) is walking around the locker room without a walking boot on Wednesday, according to Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN. Head coach Todd Monken said on Monday that Judkins is day-to-day after tweaking his ankle on Sunday in the Week 5 loss to the New York Jets. Backfield mate Raheim […]

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty (ankle, foot) could be given a game off to recover from his lingering injuries, according to ESPN. The team has reportedly discussed the possibility internally, although Jeanty has pushed to continue playing despite dealing with an ankle injury since August and a more recent foot issue. The 22-year-old […]

Tennessee Titans running back Nicholas Singleton remains a speculative stash in deeper fantasy leagues, although his limited involvement through five weeks offers little reason for optimism in the short term. The fifth-round rookie has carried the ball just seven times for 12 yards across three appearances and was a healthy scratch for Sunday's 26-3 loss […]

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler has struggled to carve out a meaningful role since returning from the torn Achilles he suffered in 2025, making him a low-priority waiver option heading into Week 6. The 31-year-old veteran rejoined Washington on September 29 and recorded 40 scrimmage yards on five touches against Indianapolis in his first […]

Week 5 brought some intriguing NFL matchups. The Vikings offense showed some signs of life, and the Texans made waves against the Titans. Unfortunately, we are still waiting for the Chargers to do something, and the Bears offense continues to disappoint. At least many of the studs are carrying the load. Josh Allen remains spectacular, […]

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) has a legitimate chance to make his season debut in Week 7 against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, who cited multiple sources. Charbonnet tore his ACL during Seattle's divisional-round playoff win over San Francisco in January and opened his 21-day practice window on October […]

Several key players are back in action this week after being on a bye, but a new group of must-start players is out of action. Bye weeks are impacting lineups significantly, and we're here to help you find the top available options. Below are our top 400 college fantasy football rankings for Week 7. RotoBaller's […]

Indianapolis Colts running back Seth McGowan has emerged as one of the more appealing handcuff stashes in fantasy football, with a clear path to increased opportunities if Jonathan Taylor misses time. The 6-foot, 223-pound rookie has established himself as Indianapolis' primary backup, while DJ Giddens has yet to play an offensive snap this season. McGowan […]

With four teams on bye weeks in Week 6 and injuries continuing to pile up each week, fantasy football teams are being stretched to show off their depth as we near the middle of the fantasy football regular season. As you work through your roster choices each week, it's imperative to have depth options available, […]

New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith is worth rostering as depth in Superflex and two-quarterback leagues, but he is difficult to justify as a Week 6 pickup in standard one-QB formats. Smith completed 17 of 30 passes for 182 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 17-12 win over Cleveland, marking his second consecutive outing below […]

At RotoBaller HQ, we are back with more updated waiver advice. Fantasy managers will not only have to navigate through injuries but will have to deal with bye weeks as well. The Bengals, Dolphins, Vikings, and Lions are on the bye. Most leagues run their waiver wire on Tuesday, but it's always a good idea […]
