Ford has a great matchup, should have a good role, and could be a top-12 running back this week. I would like him and the rest of the Browns offense more if Jameis Winston was starting, but Ford is still an RB2. Ford is averaging 5.2 yards per carry thanks to three runs of more than 30 yards. He also had a 13% target share earlier in the season when Chubb was recovering from his torn ACL.

Nick Chubb (foot) is expected to miss the rest of the season, which should give Ford the chance to start for the Browns, and he has a great matchup in Week 16 at Cincinnati. The Bengals have allowed seven running backs to score at least 10.4 PPR points in their past five games, so Ford can be a potential flex option in all leagues. Ford scored 18.4 PPR points in Week 15 against Kansas City, and he had at least 15.5 PPR points in two of the first six games this season without Chubb.

Ford rushed seven times for 84 yards and a touchdown and brought in both targets for 20 yards in the Browns' 21-7 loss to the Chiefs on Sunday. He also returned four kickoffs for 117 yards. Ford opened the game in his usual complementary role behind Nick Chubb, but the latter eventually exited the game due to what was subsequently determined to be a broken foot. Ford broke off a 62-yard touchdown run late in the fourth quarter to account for the majority of his yardage, but he should be poised to handle a lead-back role moving forward for what remains of the season with Chubb sidelined.
-
Ford played more snaps than Nick Chubb for the third time in four games, and all three of those were losses. The one time Chubb played more than Ford was the victory against Pittsburgh in Week 12. With that in mind, Cleveland plays Kansas City in Week 15, so this could be another loss. Ford could be a potential flex in PPR since he scored at least 7.2 PPR points in three of four games, and he just had 13 total touches in Week 14 at the Steelers. He also has at least three catches in two of his past four outings.
-
Ford rushed the ball 10 times for 28 yards and caught three of four targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 27-14 loss to Pittsburgh. Ford's 13 touches were his most since coming back a hamstring injury in Week 9. He was on the field for 40 snaps, more than starter Nick Chubb (26) for the second consecutive game, but that has more to do with Cleveland playing from behind. The Browns have attempted more than 40 passes six times in the seven games since Jameis Winston has taken over at quarterback. That's a situation that benefits Ford, who leads the backfield with 36 targets.
