BALLER MOVE: Start 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB36
ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts running back Trey Sermon was a popular waiver wire target last week. Jonathan Taylor missed the Week 5 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars with a high-ankle sprain, giving Sermon his first start this season. The veteran running back had 10 rushing attempts for 38 yards and a touchdown last week.
More importantly, Sermon had an impactful role in the passing game. He had six receptions on six targets for 25 receiving yards, finishing fourth on the team in targets last week. Hopefully, Taylor can play this week against the Tennessee Titans.
However, Sermon would be a top-24 running back if Taylor misses another game. Meanwhile, he isn’t startable in any format if the superstar plays. Unfortunately, there is a chance the Colts are without their top two running backs on Sunday.
Sermon missed practice on Wednesday with a collarbone injury but returned on Thursday. If Taylor and Sermon can’t play, Tyler Goodson would be the next man up in the backfield.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ team leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end FLEX ANALYSIS: Carolina Panthers running back Jonathon Brooks has had a difficult start to his professional career.

BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ team leagues POSITIONAL VALUE: RB3/FLEX ANALYSIS: Washington Commanders running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt had an inconsistent rookie season. He enjoyed a hot start and looked to be on breakout watch, totaling 14.2 PPR points in his NFL debut. However, following his 29.0 PPR point performance in Week 5, the second-round rookie […]
