• Chargers' J.K. Dobbins: RBs to Start

  3D ago • By Jamey Eisenberg

  I had my doubts about Dobbins going into Week 9 at Cleveland, but I removed him as the Bust Alert prior to Sunday, which proved to be the right move. He dominated the Browns with 14 carries for 85 yards, two touchdowns, and two catches for 20 yards, and he has now scored at least 16.8 PPR points in three of his past four games. The Titans run defense has fallen apart lately, and Tennessee has allowed seven total touchdowns to running backs in the past three games against Buffalo, Detroit, and New England. Dobbins could be in line for a huge game in Week 10.

• Chargers' J.K. Dobbins: Finds end zone again Sunday

  6D ago • By RotoWire

  Dobbins rushed 14 times for 85 yards and two touchdowns and brought in both targets for 20 yards in the Chargers' 27-10 win over the Browns on Sunday. Dobbins had his share of struggles finding running room, but he broke off a 34-yard run with just under six minutes remaining to give his efficiency a boost. He logged a touch on all four plays in that same march, capping it off with a seven-yard touchdown run that served as his third score in the last four games. Dobbins' yardage total was his fourth highest of the season overall, and he also carries a six-game streak with multiple receptions into a Week 10 home matchup against the Titans.

• Chargers' J.K. Dobbins: Stays busy in loss

  19D ago • By RotoWire

  Dobbins rushed 14 times for 40 yards and brought in all three targets for 26 yards in the Chargers' 17-15 loss to the Cardinals on Monday. Dobbins once again paced the Chargers backfield in carries and rushing yards, although he surprisingly found running room at a premium against what had been a vulnerable Cardinals defense. The veteran running back also tied a season high in receptions while posting his second-highest total of receiving yards, making it a reasonably productive outing overall. Dobbins next takes aim at the struggling Saints in a Week 8 home matchup on Sunday.

• Chargers' J.K. Dobbins: Limited production against Chiefs

  09/30/2024 • By RotoWire

  Dobbins rushed the ball 14 times for 32 yards in Sunday's 17-10 loss to the Chiefs. He added three receptions (on four targets) for 30 yards. Dobbins maintained his stronghold on the Chargers backfield, out-touching Gus Edwards 17-6. His efficiency disappeared, however, as he was held to two or fewer yards on nine of his 14 carries. Dobbins now has been bottled up for a combined 76 yards on 29 rush attempts in his last two games, though he's faced two of the better run defenses in the league after squaring off against Pittsburgh in Week 3. Dobbins should continue to have volume on his side when the Chargers return to the field Week 6, and he'll have a better chance of turning in improved efficiency.

• Chargers' J.K. Dobbins: Bust Alert (Start/Sit)

  09/26/2024 • By Jamey Eisenberg

  The Chargers starting offensive tackles of Rashawn Slater (pectoral) and Joe Alt (MCL sprain) are expected to miss Week 4, which is bad news for Dobbins. And Justin Herbert (ankle) could be out as well. Dobbins has been fantastic so far this season with two games of at least 20.1 PPR points, and he's stepped up as the No. 1 running back for the Chargers ahead of Gus Edwards. But this is a tough situation for Dobbins with a backup quarterback and an injured offensive line. Along with that, the Chiefs are No. 3 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, so Dobbins is just a flex option at best in Week 4.
