We have some juicy games on tap for the Week 8 main slate! There are two games in particular -- Cardinals at Cowboys and Ravens at Bills -- where we see massive 54.5 totals.

Atlanta Falcons running back Brian Robinson (hamstring) has officially been ruled out for the team's Week 8 tilt on Sunday against the division-rival Tampa Bay Buccaneers, according to Marc Raimondi of ESPN.

We have another 12 games on the main slate this week. It's Halloween. Things are going to get weird. Accept it. We have a couple of DFS clunkers, a cocktail party moved indoors, some Big 12 tilts, and the Wake Forest offense. Let's have some fun! These gargantuan slates can be tougher to navigate. That's […]

Philadelphia Eagles running back Saquon Barkley (hamstring, back) was seen at the portion of practice open to the media on Friday, according to Brooks Kubena of The Athletic. Barkley did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, but his presence at practice suggests he will have a chance to play on Sunday Night Football against the […]

To put it bluntly, the Philadelphia Eagles' backfield is a complete and utter mess.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Kenny Gainwell (hip) returned to practice Friday but could be a game-time decision for Sunday's Week 8 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons, according to Greg Auman of FOX Sports.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown played 75% of the team's offensive snaps in Week 7, up from 60% in Week 5, but his rushing workload remains well below its early-season level. Brown opened the year with 16 and 20 carries in his first two games before totaling just 46 attempts across his next four […]

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson has continued to struggle to start his second NFL season.

[…]

Barkley dealt with a hamstring strain he suffered in Week 4. He returned in Week 7 but was clearly hindered by the injury. Now, Barkley is listed […]

Week 7 is behind us, and that's probably a good thing! We had upsets and some fluky, weird games that wreaked a lot of havoc with my betting card. We still had some hits with props, but it wasn't the runaway success that we've had in other weeks. I like the matchups we have this […]

Hey RotoBallers! It's almost Week 8 time, but before we get to it, I just want to do another bit of self-promotion. In case you missed it, I was on Jeopardy this past week as a contestant. The episode aired live Monday night but is now streaming on Hulu and Peacock. If you have either,... […]

This feels like the kind of week we have all been waiting for. Several games have high totals, and plenty of teams have individual totals of 24 or more points. That gives us multiple stacking options for tournaments, plus plenty of guys with high floors in cash games.  The standard build this week is to... […]

Green Bay Packers running back Josh Jacobs rushed for 39 yards and a touchdown on 21 totes and caught all six of his targets for 13 yards and another score in his team's 27-19 win over the visiting Carolina Panthers.

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard rushed for 81 yards and a touchdown on 22 carries in Thursday night's 27-19 loss to the Green Bay Packers. He added 38 yards and seven receptions on eight looks. Hubbard rebounded from a subpar outing by his standards with a third game of 100-plus scrimmage yards and a […]

Seattle Seahawks rookie first-round running back Jadarian Price (chest) was listed as a limited participant on Thursday, according to John Boyle of the team's official website. Price remains on Injured Reserve, but he has returned to practice and has a realistic chance of being activated and playing on Monday night against the Chicago Bears in […]
