  Bills | James Cook hits triple digits in yardage    Mon Nov 3, 01:10 AM

Buffalo Bills RB James Cook posted 27 carries for 114 yards in Week 9 against the Kansas City Chiefs, and he had an 11-yard reception on his lone target.

Footballguys view: Kansas City had gone 27 straight games, including playoffs, without allowing a 100-yard rusher. Still, Cook broke the century mark, becoming the first player to gain 100 yards against the Chiefs' defense since Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season. Cook was sidelined early during the first half on the Bills' second offensive drive after sustaining what appeared to be an ankle injury that required attention from athletic trainers. He returned after having it taped up. The Bills play the Dolphins in Week 10.

  Texans | Woody Marks runs for modest 27 yards    Sun Nov 2, 07:38 PM

Houston Texans RB Woody Marks carried 10 times for 27 yards in Week 9 against the Denver Broncos.

Footballguys view: Marks left briefly with a possible injury and later returned to the game, but we'll have to monitor the practice reports to know if it affects his status for next week's game against the Jaguars. The Texans offense took a step back after CJ Stroud left with a concussion. If Stroud is out for Week 10, Marks is only a desperation play.

  Broncos | Nick Chubb ineffective against Broncos    Sun Nov 2, 07:34 PM

Houston Texans RB Nick Chubb carried 11 times for 34 yards in Week 9 against the Denver Broncos.

Footballguys view: Chubb was unsuccessful on a first and goal carry and then the team curiously went to British Brooks on the subsequent goal to go carries during that drive. Chubb is just a desperation play going forward and not an essential hold as we head down the stretch run of the fantasy football regular season.

  Panthers | Chuba Hubbard totals just five touches    Sun Nov 2, 07:25 PM

Carolina Panthers RB Chuba Hubbard rushed five times for just 17 yards in Week 9 against the Green Bay Packers, and he did not have a catch on just a single target.

  Panthers | Rico Dowdle impressive in Week 9 win    Sun Nov 2, 07:18 PM

Carolina Panthers RB Rico Dowdle rushed 25 times for 130 yards and two touchdowns in Week 9 against the Green Bay Packers, and he added two receptions for 11 yards on three targets.

Footballguys view: Dowdle left the game briefly after limping to the sideline, but showed no ill effects from the issue for the remainder of the game. Head coach Dave Canales did not install any form of a committee in this one, making Dowdle the clear lead back, and Dowdle responded with a dominant game on the ground the way he did in his two previous starts. Dowdle is a borderline RB1 and must play against the Saints in Week 10.

  Broncos | RJ Harvey snags touchdown reception     Sun Nov 2, 07:05 PM

Denver Broncos RB RJ Harvey rushed for five yards on two carries and caught all five targets for 51 yards and a 27-yard touchdown in Week 9 against the Houston Texans.

Footballguys view: Harvey came through as a flex as the Broncos were in pass mode in the second half trying to make up a deficit against the tough Texans defense. He's not going to hit his ceiling as long as JK Dobbins stays healthy, but Harvey has put up good fantasy numbers in a small role for two straight weeks now.

  Broncos | J.K. Dobbins top 60 yards for eighth time this year    Sun Nov 2, 06:56 PM

Denver Broncos RB J.K. Dobbins rushed for 61 yards on 15 carries in Week 9 against the Houston Texans.

  Patriots | Terrell Jennings scores TD in Week 9    Sun Nov 2, 06:31 PM

New England Patriots RB Terrell Jennings rushed 11 times for 35 yards and a touchdown in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons, while adding a 9-yard catch on his only target.

Footballguys view: Jennings could be a waiver addition in deep leagues after he was the preferred short yardage option over TreVeyon Henderson, which allowed him to get the rushing touchdown in the win. We'll see if Rhamondre Stevenson is ready to play for Week 10, but if he isn't Jennings is still probably only a desperation play against a very strong Bucs run defense.

  Steelers | Kenneth Gainwell more involved as receiver    Sun Nov 2, 06:29 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers RB Kenneth Gainwell caught four passes for 35 yards on five targets against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 9. He also rushed for negative one yard on three carries during the game.

  Patriots | TreVeyon Henderson leads backfield in Week 9    Sun Nov 2, 06:28 PM

New England Patriots RB TreVeyon Henderson registered 14 carries for a game-high 55 yards in Week 9 against the Atlanta Falcons, and he added four receptions for 32 yards on six targets.

Footballguys view: Henderson was more effective than Terrell Jennings, and he got off to a hot start, but the Patriots went with a committee backfield and Jennings got the one rushing touchdown, so Henderson was a mere flex play with Rhamondre Stevenson sitting. Next week brings a tough matchup against the Bucs run defense and Henderson didn't do enough in this game to be a strong Week 10 play, even if Stevenson is out again.

  Steelers | Kaleb Johnson limited to two touches    Sun Nov 2, 06:26 PM

  Steelers | Two touchdowns for Jaylen Warren    Sun Nov 2, 06:22 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren rushed for 31 yards and two touchdowns on 16 carries against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 9. He also caught two passes for negative two yards during the game.

Footballguys view: Warren had a good fantasy game even though he couldn't get anything going on the ground against the Colts run defense. Five Daniel Jones turnovers set up the Steelers with a lot of short fields, and Warren was able to finish two drives to help fantasy teams in Week 9. He's a boom/bust RB2 against the Chargers next week.

  Vikings | Aaron Jones has AC joint sprain    Sun Nov 2, 06:22 PM

Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones (shoulder) said Sunday, Nov. 2 after the Week 9 game against the Detroit Lions that he has a sprained AC joint in his shoulder, but he was hopeful it would not cost him any time.

Footballguys view: Jones was the clear lead back ahead of Jordan Mason and was at 98 total yards on only nine carries and two receptions before leaving the game. Jordan Mason would become the starter again if Jones can't play against the Ravens next week. Zavier Scott is the third string back and the Vikings also have Cam Akers on the practice squad.

  Bears | Kyle Monangai runs wild against the Bengals    Sun Nov 2, 06:07 PM

Chicago Bears RB Kyle Monangai rushed for 176 yards on 26 carries in Week 9 against the Cincinnati Bengals. He added 22 yards catching three of five targets.

Footballguys view: Start everyone against the Bengals defense, but especially start tight ends and running backs. Monangai got stronger as the game went on and showed the endurance and staying power to be a lead back. The Bears can take their take with D'Andre Swift's return after seeing this performance, and Monangai certainly made a statement about being a part of this team's long term plans with this big game.

  Colts | Ameer Abdullah not a factor    Sun Nov 2, 05:47 PM

  Colts | Jonathan Taylor held to 57 total yards    Sun Nov 2, 05:44 PM

Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor rushed for 45 yards on 14 carries against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 9. He also caught two passes for 12 yards during the game.

Footballguys view: Not every game can be a three touchdown banger from Taylor. The game got away from the Colts because of Daniel Jones five turnovers, but they also seemed to abandon the run earlier than they needed to. The Steelers defense (including the run defense) has been inconsistent, but very strong at their best, and they were strong today. Taylor should be much more productive against the Falcons next week.

  Giants | Tyrone Tracy quiet in Week 9    Sun Nov 2, 05:10 PM

New York Giants RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. rushed for 18 yards on five carries against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 9. He caught three passes for 19 yards during the game.

Footballguys view: Tracy's game was a letdown after it looked like he was going to be the clear starter ahead of Devin Singletary based on the backfield split after Cam Skattebo went down last week. He was a top priority waiver pickup last week, but he might not even be worth carrying into Week 10 for the matchup with the Bears, with Devin Singletary the more trusted back for the Giants right now.

  Bengals | Chase Brown tops 100 yards from scrimmage    Sun Nov 2, 05:07 PM

Cincinnati Bengals RB Chase Brown carried 11 times for 37 yards and caught eight of 14 targets for 75 yards in Week 9 against the Chicago Bears.

Footballguys view: Brown had a big PPR game thanks to an increased role once Samaje Perine left with an ankle injury, especially in the passing game. The Bengals are going into their bye, but there's a decent chance that Brown will be a strong RB2 play in Week 11 because Perine's injury has the potential to keep him out after the one-week break.

  Giants | Devin Singletary finishes with 43 yards    Sun Nov 2, 05:06 PM

New York Giants RB Devin Singletary rushed for 43 yards on eight carries against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 9. He also caught two passes for eight yards during the game.

Footballguys view: Singletary got more touches than Tyrone Tracy, and he appears to be the preferred option in the red zone between the two backs. Jaxson Dart is actually the first rushing option in goal to go situations, and this offense is probably too limited for either back to have fantasy relevance. If there is one worth playing or rostering, it is Singletary.

  Titans | Tyjae Spears totals 10 touches    Sun Nov 2, 05:03 PM

Tennessee Titans RB Tyjae Spears rushed seven times for 26 yards in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers, while adding three receptions for 36 yards on his three targets.

Footballguys view: Spears wasn't able to break any long runs, and there wasn't any garbage time in a close time - which was when Spears scored in Week 8. We'll wait and see if Tony Pollard gets traded as some have suggested. If that happens by the Tuesday trade deadline, Spears will gain a lot of fantasy value.

  Titans | Tony Pollard totals 11 touches in Week 9    Sun Nov 2, 04:55 PM

Tennessee Titans RB Tony Pollard registered 10 carries for 56 yards in Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers, while adding a single catch for 12 yards on two targets.

Footballguys view: Pollard was stopped at the goal line on fourth down to keep him from having a decent fantasy showing, It was also a turning point in a back and forth game that saw the Titans hang with the Chargers thanks to a defensive touchdown and a special teams touchdown. There have been some trade rumors about Pollard with the deadline for deals coming up this week, we'll see if he and Tyjae Spears can both gain value by splitting this committee backfield.

  49ers | Brian Robinson finds end zone    Sun Nov 2, 04:15 PM

San Francisco 49ers RB Brian Robinson Jr. rushed for 53 yards and one touchdown on five carries against the New York Giants in Week 9.

Footballguys view: Robinson looked as good as he has all season on his touchdown run. With the 49ers running game clicking now that George Kittle is back, Robinson is moving up the backup running back rankings and should be rostered if bench size allows.

  49ers | Christian McCaffrey has terrific outing    Sun Nov 2, 04:11 PM

San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey rushed for 106 yards and one touchdown on 28 carries against the New York Giants in Week 9. He also caught five passes for 67 yards and one touchdown during the game.

Footballguys view: For the second time in three games, McCaffrey was the picture of a ball control running back, grinding down the opposing defense with unstoppable effort, posting a massive fantasy output along the way. There's a good case for McCaffrey as the most valuable player in fantasy football right now heading into a rematch with the Rams.

  Chargers | Kimani Vidal does very little    Sun Nov 2, 04:04 PM

Los Angeles Chargers RB Kimani Vidal fan 12 times for just 30 yards in Week 9 against the Tennessee Titans, and he did not have a catch on just one target.

Footballguys view: Vidal was one of the biggest disappointments of Week 9 in what should have been a perfect spot for him to put up fantasy points. Backup Jaret Patterson was more effective, but Vidal should remain the starter against the Steelers, and he belongs in lineups as a RB2/Flex play while we continue to wait for news about when Omarion Hampton will be able to return from his ankle injury.
