Alvin Kamara Rushes For Two Scores In Win

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara carried the ball 12 times for 56 yards with two rushing touchdowns in the Saints blowout win over the Bengals. Kamara also added four catches for 46 yards and now has seven touchdowns over his last three games. Kamara has been one of the most electric offensive players […]

Jordan Howard Disappoints With 32 All-Purpose Yards

Chicago Bears running back Jordan Howard carried the ball 11 times for 21 yards and added one catch for 11 yards in the Bears win over the Lions. The Bears offense exploded in the first half but Howard was unable to get in on the fun. Even with a huge lead in the second half […]

Tarik Cohen Totals 44 Yards From Scrimmage In Week 10

Chicago Bears running back Tarik Cohen caught six passes for 29 yards and added 15 rushing yards in the Bears 34-22 win over the Lions. Cohen was unable to spring free for a huge play but was active early and added a rushing touchdown in the first half. Cohen missed a few plays after a […]

Chris Carson Out Against Rams

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (hip) won't play against the Rams. Expect Mike Davis to see the bulk of the carries against a Rams defense that has allowed four rushing touchdowns to running backs over the past two games. Consider Davis a strong RB2/flex option this week.

Jamison Crowder, Chris Thompson Inactive In Week 10

The Washington Redskins will be without running back Chris Thompson and wide receiver Jamison Crowder for Sunday's meeting with Tampa Bay. In the running game, expect to see heavy doses of Adrian Peterson with some Kapri Bibbs mixed in, while the Redskins passing game should rely more on tight ends Jordan Reed and Vernon Davis […]

Updated Week 10 PPR Rankings (Top 300)

Welcome to Week 10 RotoBallers. Below are our updated consensus Week 10 PPR rankings for fantasy football, including some running notes on relevant injuries, player news and rankings updates: Marvin Jones looks to have injured his knee and is out of the game. Julian Edelman went to the locker room with an ankle injury. Chris Carson […]

Chris Carson Not Expected To Play Week 10

Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson (groin) is a game-time decision for Seattle's Week 10 meeting with the Rams, but the expectation is that Carson will not play. Mike Davis will lead the backfield with Carson out and with how much the Seahawks are running the ball this year, Davis is a solid flex option […]

Ronald Jones II Out Again In Week 10

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II (hamstring) will miss Sunday's meeting against the Washington Redskins. The rookie spent the early part of the year as a healthy inactive and now is dealing with this hamstring issue, which has made his rookie season into a tough one for Tampa Bay. Expect Peyton Barber to […]

Kerryon Johnson Expected To Play Against Bears

Detroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson (ankle) is expected to play on Sunday against the Bears. The Bears boast a strong defense and Johnson is still sharing backfield touches with LeGarrette Blount, but Johnson can be a solid flex option barring any pre-game setbacks.

Good Chance Sony Michel Will Play On Sunday

New England Patriots running back Sony Michel (knee) is expected to suit up against the Titans on Sunday. The rookie has not played since Week 7 in the win over Chicago, and despite being a limited participant in practice throughout the week, he will likely be on a snap count in Week 10. As a […]

Steelers Optimistic James Conner Will Return In Week 11

With it looking more and more likely that Le'Veon Bell won't report to the team, the Steelers will need running back James Conner this year to keep up their playoff hopes. Conner, who is currently in concussion protocol after Thursday's win over the Panthers, could miss Week 11's meeting with the Jaguars, but the team […]

Darren Sproles Expected To Miss Multiple Weeks

Philadelphia Eagles running back Darren Sproles (hamstring) was hoping to return in Week 10, but after suffering a setback in practice, the team expects him to miss another three or four weeks. That leaves the Eagles backfield in the hands of Corey Clement, Wendell Smallwood, and Josh Adams, and introduces some uncertainty to Sproles chance […]

Giovani Bernard Will Likely Return Against Saints

Cincinnati Bengals running back Giovani Bernard (knee) is expected to play against the Saints. Bernard, who has missed the past month with an MCL sprain, couldn't have come back at a more opportune time with the team down star wide receiver A.J. Green (toe), who is anticipated to miss at least a few games. Expect […]

Schefter: Le'Veon Bell Unlikely To Report Tuesday

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Saturday night that sources told him that they don't expect Le'Veon Bell to report to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Tuesday. Bell has until this Tuesday to join the team in order to accrue enough service time to become a free agent following the season. That being the case, most onlookers […]

Derrick Henry Should Be Benched In Week 10

After coming into the season with a lot of hype, Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry has disappointed hard. He has totaled only 300 yards on the ground this season, and it doesn't appear that he is going to greatly add to that total this week. The New England Patriots are great against big running […]

Dion Lewis Is An RB2 In Week 10

Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis has continuously separated himself from bruiser Derrick Henry this season. Against the New England Patriots in Week 10, he represents a decent RB2 play with his ability to catch the ball out of the backfield. He also has far better big-play ability than Henry does. He led the team […]

Elijah McGuire Could Be Sneaky Play

New York Jets running back Elijah McGuire took a clear backseat to Isaiah Crowell in Week 9, but he could be a sneaky fantasy play this week against the Buffalo Bills. Buffalo has been susceptible to rushing touchdowns over the past three games, and McGuire could see something closer to Crowell's workload this week after […]

Isaiah Crowell Has Upside In Week 10

New York Jets running back Isaiah Crowell has a shot at putting up some strong fantasy numbers in Week 10 against the Buffalo Bills, who have allowed four rushing touchdowns to backs over the past three games. Crowell is always a boom-or-bust guy, but this could be one of those weeks when he booms, especially […]

T.J. Yeldon Remains A Solid PPR Play In Week 10

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon has been targeted five or more times in all but one game so far this season, and even with Leonard Fournette (hamstring) back in the lineup, Yeldon's upside as the receiver makes him a good flex option in PPR leagues this week against a Colts team that has allowed […]

Leonard Fournette Has Plenty Of Upside In Week 10

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette (hamstring) is expected to return to the Jaguars lineup in Week 10 against a Colts defense that gives up the 13th-most fantasy points to the running back position. Fournette does have a little more of a crowd in the backfield now that T.J. Yeldon looks like a strong receiving […]

Week 10 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football

The NFL season continues to tick along, and as we reach the first week of the season that has two numbers inside of one number in its name, we start to reach panic mode for some fantasy owners. You're sitting at 3-6 and you know another loss dooms you, and you can't risk putting someone […]

Flex Heroes and Zeroes - Week 10 Fantasy Football Picks

The playoffs are coming... but not yet. With all the talk of trade deadlines and ROS prep, we should keep one thing in mind - you have to get there first. I've seen teams sell high and buy low right out of contention because they forgot to actually win games in the process of preparing […]

RB Touches and Efficiency Breakdown - Week 10 Preview

After a week off, it’s time to get back to it. Week 9 offered some underwhelming performances from players we may have been counting on to for a victory. Are those performances going to be the norm moving forward or should we expect better weeks ahead? These key questions need to be answered prior to […]

Week 10 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions

I cannot believe it is Week 10 already! This season has flown by and things in the NFL are starting to settle down. The good teams are really starting to distinguish from bad and the pretenders are falling away a little bit. The same goes for the players in the consistency ratings. The best running […]

Joe Mixon Faces Stiff Test Versus Saints

Joe Mixon is in the small group of running backs with a guaranteed workload, as evidenced by his 20.7 touches per game (fifth among RB's). However, his recent lack of receiving usage, the return of Giovani Bernard, and a really tough matchup against the Saints all serve to slightly downgrade his fantasy outlook this week. […]
