During the NFL season, I walk through the player pool for each team to get a feel for their offense. Unfortunately, injury news isn’t clear on Tuesday, so many players’ health will change by game time on Sunday. I’ll do another update later in the week. Here are some running backs whose status is in flux early in the week:
Deon Jackson (28.1 fantasy points) and Rhamondre Stevenson (25.1 fantasy points) finish 1-2 in running back scoring in PPR formats in Week 6. Jackson’s success was a surprise while almost delivering a Jonathan Taylor-type outcome. Stevenson moved to 11th in the running back rankings. Nick Chubb (8.0 fantasy points) posted his worst game of the year.
Keaontay Ingram, Arizona Cardinals
With Arizona playing on a short week, I don’t expect James Conner or Darrel Williams to play. In addition, Eno Benjamin came out of last week’s game with a foot issue that puts his playing time at risk against the Saints. In the first run of the Week 7 projections, I gave Ingram just under 50% of the running back opportunity for Arizona until I see an update on the status of Benjamin. This backfield will be updated on our new projections page once there is clarity on which running backs will suit up.
