• Bengals' Khalil Herbert: Plays four offensive snaps in loss

  7H ago • By RotoWire

  Herbert failed to record a single rushing attempt or target in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Chargers. Herbert was not a part of the Bengals' offensive game plan Sunday, as the veteran running back still has yet to see a single touch on offense for Cincinnati. Herbert did, however, gain 29 yards on his only kick return in the contest. It's possible that the 26-year-old may still be taking time to get acclimated into the Bengals' offense, but it is surprising to see such limited playing time for a player that the Bengals traded for ahead of the trade deadline. Meanwhile, fellow running back Chase Brown has continued to see a massive workload as Cincinnati's lead back. Herbert will look to get more involved in the offense when the Bengals come out of their Week 12 bye to face the Steelers on Dec. 1.

• Bengals' Khalil Herbert: Sees just two snaps in team debut

  12D ago • By RotoWire

  Herbert didn't record a carry or a target in Thursday's Week 10 loss to Baltimore. Herbert joined Cincinnati in a trade between the Bengals and Bears on Tuesday, and he was able to suit up just two days later. However, Herbert didn't make the best first impression, as he couldn't grasp the ball on a handoff from QB Joe Burrow in the second quarter. The fumble was questionably charged to Burrow, and Herbert was credited with the recovery after he fell on top of the ball, but that was essentially the extent of Herbert's involvement in the contest (he logged just one other snap). The fourth-year running back has a chance to grow into a significantly larger role once he gets more accustomed to the Bengals' playbook, especially with Zack Moss (neck) landing on injured reserve Tuesday, but Chase Brown figures to remain heavily involved after tallying 94 total yards from scrimmage and scoring a touchdown in Thursday's loss.

• Bengals' Khalil Herbert: Active versus Baltimore

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Herbert is active for Thursday night's game against the Ravens. Though he just joined the Bengals on Tuesday in a trade with the Bears, Herbert has absorbed enough of his new team's offense to enter the backfield mix in short order. In his new locale, Herbert will help fill the void created by the absence of Zack Moss (neck), who is on IR and could miss the rest of season. In that context, Herbert is in line to step into a complementary role behind Chase Brown that should grow as the season progresses.

• Bengals' Khalil Herbert: On track to play Thursday

  13D ago • By RotoWire

  Herbert is expected to play Thursday night against the Ravens, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports. Per Fowler, Herbert, who joined the Bengals on Tuesday via a trade with the Bears, worked aggressively over the past few days to get up to speed with his new team's offense, paving the way for him to step right into the lineup in Week 10. With Zack Moss (neck) on IR and a candidate to miss the rest of season, Herbert is slated to step into a complementary role in a backfield led by Chase Brown. It remains to be seen how heavy a workload he'll see in his anticipated debut with Cincinnati, but in his new locale Herbert could end up seeing enough volume as the season progresses to resurface on the fantasy radar.

  The Bengals traded a seventh-round pick to the Bears for Herbert, who will now replace Zack Moss (neck) as the No. 2 running back in Cincinnati. Herbert is now the backup for Chase Brown, and Herbert could be a lottery ticket in case Brown misses any time. Herbert is worth adding for up to 5 percent of your remaining FAB.
