New York Jets head coach Adam Gase said he's considering giving up play-calling duties after the team's 0-5 start for the first time since 1996. "I don't think I'm ever opposed to try something to change things up. I'd say everything is on the table at this point," Gase said. The Jets have scored more […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 15% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Green Bay Packers running back Jamaal Williams has quietly had an extremely efficient start to the year as a pass-catching option out of the backfield.

Gus Edwards (RB, BAL) - Week 6 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards has been a bit of a fantasy afterthought amidst the team's current running back trio, which is rounded out by No. 1 back Mark Ingram II and rookie J.K. Dobbins. Ingram is coming off a year where […]

Falcons Fire Dan Quinn; Raheem Morris The Interim Coach

The Atlanta Falcons fired head coach Dan Quinn on Sunday night. Quinn becomes the second head coach in a week to be fired, with the Texans axing head coach Bill O'Brien last week. Raheem Morris will take over as the interim head coach for the 0-5 team after Quinn's dismissal. Morris was the head coach […]

Josh Jacobs Rushes For Two Touchdowns

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs had a bounce-back performance, rushing for 77 yards and two touchdowns against the Chiefs. Jacobs' longest rush of the day was just seven yards, and he averaged less than four yards per carry for the fourth time this season. However, he salvaged the day by finding the end […]

Chris Carson Plays Well In Week 5

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson continued his strong start to the season in the team's Week 5 win over the Minnesota Vikings. He had eight carries for 52 yards and a touchdown to go along with six catches for 27 yards. In full PPR scoring, that was good enough for a 19-point night. Even […]

Devonta Freeman Leads The Way In Week 5

New York Giants running back Devonta Freeman ran for 60 yards and a touchdown off of 17 carries during the loss to the Cowboys on Sunday. He also had two catches for 27 yards. Although the former Falcon conceded carries once again to Wayne Gallman, who had five for 24 yards, it was his most […]

Mark Ingram II Doesn't Do Much Once Again

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram II ran for 57 yards off 11 carries during the Week 5 win over Cincinnati. The veteran once again had the most attempts out of the backfield but continued to concede carries to Gus Edwards, J.K. Dobbins, and Lamar Jackson. Outside of his effectiveness inside the red zone, he […]

Kareem Hunt Scores Sixth TD Of Season

Cleveland Browns running back Kareem Hunt carried 20 times for 72 yards and added three receptions for 21 yards and a touchdown in a 32-23 win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 5.

Frank Gore Shut Down By Arizona

New York Jets running back Frank Gore was not able to get anything going on the ground during the Week 5 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. He rushed nine times for 30 yards in the loss. It was surprising that Gore saw nine carries with Le'Veon Bell back in the picture. However, the Jets offensive […]

Le'Veon Bell Quiet In Return

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell returned for the Week 5 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals after missing each of the last three games.

James Conner Scores In Third Straight Game

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner rushed 15 times for 44 yards and a touchdown in a 39-28 win over the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 5.

Matt Breida Gets Nine Carries Against 49ers

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida saw a higher usage during the Week 5 victory over the San Francisco 49ers. Jordan Howard was a healthy scratch, so Breida was promoted to the No. 2 back. Breida saw a season-high nine carries for 28 yards in the victory. He has been horrendous all season long and […]

Jordan Howard A Healthy Scratch In Week 5

Miami Dolphins running back Jordan Howard was a healthy scratch for the Week 5 contest against the San Francisco 49ers. We really can't blame the Dolphins after Howard posted a total of 14 rushing yards through the first four games. Myles Gaskin has become the clear cut lead back in Miami. Matt Breida gets a […]

Tony Pollard Touches The Ball Eight Times In Week 5

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard ran the ball six times in Week 5, gaining 30 yards. He added two catches for two more yards. He was targeted three times in the passing game. Pollard, like usual, showed good burst and potential with the ball in his hands, but he played clearly behind starter Ezekiel […]

Myles Gaskin Scores Touchdown In Victory

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin continues to succeed as the lead back in Miami. He rushed 16 times for 57 yards and one touchdown in the Week 5 win over the San Francisco 49ers. Gaskin also hauled in five receptions for 34 yards through the air. Jordan Howard was a healthy scratch in this […]

Jonathan Taylor Gets Touchdown In Loss

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor rushed for 57 yards and a touchdown in a Sunday loss to the Browns. Taylor also grabbed two catches for 17 yards. He ran the ball effectively, averaging 4.8 yards per carry. Taylor likely would have seen more carries if that Colts were not trying to dig their way […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Carries The Ball Four Times In Week 5

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. made the most of his limited opportunities in Week 5 against the Miami Dolphins. Wilson carried the ball four times in the game and gained 27 yards. He also earned a target in the passing game, but failed to reel it in. It was a rough day […]

Ezekiel Elliott Scores Twice In Week 5 Win

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott ran in two touchdowns in a Week 5 37-34 win over the New York Giants. Elliott ran the ball 19 times, gaining 91 yards and adding a catch for 14 more yards. "Zeke" didn't see much action in the passing game in this one, logging just two targets. His […]

Jerick McKinnon Has Just Three Touches In Week 5

San Francisco 49ers running back Jerick McKinnon had a disappointing showing in Week 5 against the Miami Dolphins. McKinnon rushed the ball only once for zero yards and caught two of his four targets for five yards in the game. The 49ers' top running back Raheem Mostert made his return in this game after a […]

Raheem Mostert Gains Over 100 Yards In Return

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert looked great in his return to action in Week 5 against the Miami Dolphins. He rushed the ball 11 times for 90 yards and caught all three of his targets for 29 yards. He likely would have had an even bigger game if the 49ers could have kept […]

J.D. McKissic Leads Washington In Receptions

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic was the team's leading receiver in Week 5, catching six passes for 46 yards. He was a favorite checkdown option for quarterback Alex Smith in the second half. McKissic is a solid receiving back, but likely won't get the necessary workload moving forward to be a startable play […]

Antonio Gibson Struggles Against Rams

Washington Football Team running back Antonio Gibson could never find his footing against the Rams on Sunday, carrying the ball 11 times for 27 yards. He did add five catches for 24 yards to help his fantasy line in PPR leagues, but overall it was a disappointing showing for the rookie. In this low-volume offense, […]

Carlos Hyde Inactive For Sunday Night Game

Seattle Seahawks running back Carlos Hyde (shoulder) will be inactive for Sunday night's game against the Minnesota Vikings. Hyde has been dealing with a shoulder injury and was listed as questionable all week. With Hyde out, Chris Carson could see even more usage while Travis Homer and DeeJay Dallas should see an increase in opportunities […]

Dan Quinn Likely To Be Fired In The Next Two Days

Atlanta Falcons head coach Dan Quinn is reportedly on the verge of being fired and an announcement should be made on either Monday or Tuesday. Quinn's Falcons are off to a dreadful start to the year, sitting at 0-5 after losing 23-16 to the Carolina Panthers this week. The Falcons are desperately in need of […]

Cam Akers Runs Well In Return In Week 5

Los Angeles Rams rookie running back Cam Akers (rib) had missed the last two games after exiting Week 2 early, but he ran quite well in the team's Week 5 win over the Washington Football Team. He had nine carries for 61 yards on the afternoon. His 61 yards were just seven fewer yards than […]
