Bills | James Cooks totals 177 scrimmage yards Mon Dec 1, 12:58 AM
Buffalo Bills RB James Cook rushed 32 times for 144 yards in Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, while adding three receptions for a team-high 33 yards on three targets. He did fumble twice, losing one of them.
| Footballguys view: The 32 carries were a career high for Cook, and tied with Jonathan Taylor in Week 10 for most by an RB in the NFL this season. Outside of a second-quarter fumble, Cook sliced through the Pittsburgh defense with ease. He totaled 60 yards before contact, his second-most in a game this season, and added 84 yards after contact, his fourth-most of the season. He also forced six missed tackles on the ground, tied for his season high. Expect more of the same against the Bengals in Week 14. |
Broncos | Jaleel McLaughlin posts 30 yards Mon Dec 1, 12:28 AM
Denver Broncos RB Jaleel McLaughlin ran the ball six times for 24 yards in Week 13 against the Washington Commanders. He added a six-yard reception.
Link to story Broncos | RJ Harvey runs for two TDs Mon Dec 1, 12:17 AM
Denver Broncos RB RJ Harvey carried the ball 13 times for 35 yards and a pair of touchdowns in a Week 13 win over the Washington Commanders. Harvey also caught three passes (on four targets) for 27 yards.
| Footballguys view: As Pro Football Focus noted, the Broncos continued their three-man running back rotation from before the bye week, with Harvey as the lead back, Jaleel McLaughlin as the backup, and Tyler Badie as the receiving back. But it was Harvey getting the bulk of the workload and the premium looks. He's an appealing play heading into a Week 15 tilt with the Raiders. |

Buccaneers | Bucky Irving scores in return Sun Nov 30, 08:48 PM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Bucky Irving rushed 17 times for 61 yards and a touchdown and caught two passes for 20 yards in a 20-17 win over the Arizona Cardinals in Week 13.
| Footballguys view: Irving returned from a seven-game absence and played the lead role in his first game back. According to Pro Football Focus' Nathan Jahnke, Irving wasn't on the field as much as he was earlier in the season, but he touched the ball on a higher percentage of his plays. The decreased playing time in his first week back makes sense. So does an increasing role over the rest of the season. The Buccaneers play the Saints in Week 14. |
Chargers | Kimani Vidal cracks off long TD Sun Nov 30, 08:44 PM
Los Angeles Chargers RB Kimani Vidal ran 25 times for 126 yards and a 59-yard touchdown in Week 13 against the Las Vegas Raiders, and he had an 11-yard reception on his lone target.
| Footballguys view: Vidal had his third game with at least 100 yards, the most for a Chargers player in a season since Melvin Gordon in 2018. With Omarion Hampton still working his way off IR, Vidal, who was released before this season but then brought back to the practice squad, ran all over the Raiders. He's proven he belongs in the NFL. But for our purposes, Hampton's looming return will put Vidal back on fantasy benches. The Chargers play the Eagles in Week 14. |
Jets | Isaiah Davis blanked in Week 13 Sun Nov 30, 08:29 PM
New York Jets RB Isaiah Davis did not have a rushing attempt in Week 13 against the Atlanta Falcons, while going without a reception on just a single target.

Falcons | TD in Week 13 for Tyler Allgeier Sun Nov 30, 07:17 PM
Atlanta Falcons RB Tyler Allgeier rushed eight times for 20 yards and a touchdown in Week 13 against the New York Jets, and he added two receptions for 35 yards on his two targets.
Link to story Falcons | Bijan Robinson piles up yards in Week 13 Sun Nov 30, 07:12 PM
Atlanta Falcons RB Bijan Robinson rushed 23 times for 142 yards and a touchdown in Week 13 against the New York Jets, while adding five receptions for 51 yards on seven targets.
| Footballguys view: This was a relief as Robinson showed that he can have a ceiling game even with Kirk Cousins at quarterback. Robinson even got the first and goal carry before Tyler Allgeier scored on second and goal. Next week against the Seahawks will be a much tougher matchup, but Robinson has to have you feeling better after this week than you felt last week. |

Dolphins | De'Von Achane rumbles for 134 yards, TD Sun Nov 30, 06:21 PM
Miami Dolphins RB De'Von Achane rushed 22 times for 134 yards and a touchdown in Week 13 against the New Orleans Saints, and he did not have a reception on a single target.
| Footballguys view: Achane has been the one constant in a turbulent season for the Dolphins. He was still a very strong RB1 play this week even though he didn't catch a pass. Hopefully the Dolphins will make moves this offseason to improve his supporting cast to his level. |
Vikings | Aaron Jones questionable to return Sun Nov 30, 06:06 PM
Minnesota Vikings RB Aaron Jones (shoulder) left the Week 13 game against the Seattle Seahawks in the second half due to a shoulder injury. His return is questionable. Jones had just six runs for only three yards, while totaling four receptions for 22 yards on four targets before departing.
| Footballguys view: The Vikings offense is sinking to the bottom of the ocean with quarterback problems, but this could make Jordan Mason at least a viable flex if Jones has to miss time. The matchup next week against Washington is much better than the trip to Seattle in Week 13, so Mason is worth an add on the waiver wire while we wait for news on Jones injury. |

Jaguars | Bhayshul Tuten finds end zone Sun Nov 30, 05:53 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars RB Bhayshul Tuten rushed for 17 yards and one touchdown on eight carries against the Tennessee Titans in Week 13. He also caught one pass for two yards during the game.
Link to story Jaguars | Travis Etienne top rusher in Week 13 Sun Nov 30, 05:49 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars RB Travis Etienne rushed for 28 yards on 12 carries against the Tennessee Titans in Week 13. He also caught one pass for 13 yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: Etienne vastly outplayed Bhayshul Tuten last week, but both backs were held in check by the Titans titanic defensive tackle duo. Tuten got the touchdown, which made Etienne a fantasy bust one week after a very strong game. Etienne remains an RB2/Flex option against the Colts next week, but it could be a rough ride in the fantasy playoffs with Tuten also having a significant role. |

Saints | Devin Neal totals 69 scrimmage yards Sun Nov 30, 05:34 PM
New Orleans Saints RB Devin Neal rushed 14 times for 47 yards in Week 13 against the Miami Dolphins, while absorbing all three of his targets for 22 receiving yards.
| Footballguys view: Neal had a slow start, but got going early in the second half and looks capable of being the starter against the Bucs next week if Alvin Kamara has to miss another week with his knee injury. Keep expectations low against the good Tampa run defense, but Neal will be a what-the-heck flex play if he's the starter. |
Texans | Woody Marks posts another solid outing Sun Nov 30, 05:32 PM
Houston Texans RB Woody Marks ran 19 times for 64 yards and caught one pass for three yards in a Week 13 win over the Indianapolis Colts.
| Footballguys view: Marks left the game briefly with a foot injury, but didn't seem to be affected by it after he returned. He was still the clear leader in backfield touches, but Nick Chubb got the running back touchdown, and the return of CJ Stroud did not mean a return to the big receiving numbers we have seen from Marks with Stroud earlier this season. As long as Marks' week in practice is uneventful, he is still a good flex play against the Chiefs next week. |

Cleveland Browns RB Quinshon Judkins rushed for 91 yards on 23 carries against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13. He also caught three passes for 18 yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: Judkins added a two point conversion on a direct snap to help put up a good RB2 game despite the lopsided loss. The Browns offense is limited, but their defense should keep games close enough to make Judkins an everyweek RB2 play. He has a high ceiling against the Titans next week, although they shut down the Jaguars running game in Week 13. |
Panthers | Rico Dowdle turns in mediocre stat line Sun Nov 30, 04:46 PM
Carolina Panthers RB Rico Dowdle rushed 18 times for 58 yards in Week 13 against the Los Angeles Rams, while adding a pair of receptions for 21 yards on two targets.
| Footballguys view: Dowdle wasn't a bust and you had to be happy to see him get 20 touches in a game where the Panthers scored 31 points, but his value is down after Chuba Hubbard reasserted himself as an RB1A in what is now a fullblown RBBC. At least the Panthers are playing well enough for Dowdle to still be a RB2/Flex option in the fantasy playoffs, but his value in fantasy leagues is going down. |

Panthers | Chuba Hubbard totals 124 yards, TD Sun Nov 30, 04:40 PM
Carolina Panthers RB Chuba Hubbard rushed 17 times for 83 yards in Week 13 against the Los Angeles Rams, while adding two receptions for 41 yards and a touchdown on two targets.
| Footballguys view: It appears Hubbard came back a little early from his calf injury and the player that we saw pale in comparison to Rico Dowdle is a memory. This is back to being a full blown RBBC, and Hubbard might be the better half of it after the bye. The Panthers are playing well enough for both players to matter during the fantasy playoffs. Hubbard is one of the biggest value gainers of Week 13. |

Colts | Jonathan Taylor tops 100 yards but held out of end zone Sun Nov 30, 04:37 PM
Indianapolis Colts RB Jonathan Taylor carries 21 times for 85 yards and caught three of five targets for 36 more in a Week 13 loss to the Houston Texans.
| Footballguys view: Taylor got a good helping of touches in a close game, but never broke free as a runner to influence the outcome of this game or fantasy matchups. The Colts offense doesn't have a high weekly ceiling with Daniel Jones banged up, so teams that Taylor helped get to the fantasy playoffs are going to need other players to step up if they are going to bring home a title. |

San Francisco 49ers RB Christian McCaffrey rushed for 53 yards and one touchdown on 20 carries against the Cleveland Browns in Week 13. He also caught four passes for 21 yards during the game.
| Footballguys view: This is what a floor game for McCaffrey looks like this season. He has stayed healthy under a heavy workload and will get to rest during his Week 14 bye. A lot of McCaffrey fantasy teams are going to get first round byes, or at least make the fantasy playoffs to reward the risk taken in the first round of drafts. |

Rams | Kyren Williams scores again in Week 13 Sun Nov 30, 04:06 PM
Los Angeles Rams RB Kyren Williams rushed 13 times for 72 yards and a touchdown in Week 13 against the Carolina Panthers, and he had no receptions on one target.
| Footballguys view: Williams left briefly with an ankle injury, but returned and looked good. Blake Corum also ran well and should keep this backfield closer to a committee than a starter/backup split, but Williams is still a worthy RB2/Flex play in Week 14, assuming his dinged up ankle doesn't act up after he finished the game on it. |
Rams | Blake Corum tops charts in Week 13 Sun Nov 30, 03:51 PM
Los Angeles Rams RB Blake Corum ran seven times for a team-best 81 yards with a touchdown in Week 13 against the Carolina Panthers, and he was not targeted in the passing game.
| Footballguys view: Corum and Kyren Williams traded off big gains in the running game and scores on the ground in the second half as the Rams running game was clicking against against the Panthers. Williams left briefly with an ankle injury, so Corum's speculative upside is growing. He's a what-the-heck flex in Week 14 at Arizona. |
