  • Raheim Sanders RB | CLE

    Browns' Raheim Sanders: Held to 31 yards

    Sanders rushed the ball eight times for 21 yards in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Steelers. He added one reception on two targets for 10 yards.

    Sanders worked closely behind Dylan Sampson in the Cleveland backfield, logging nine touches to Sampson's 14. Sanders was unable to get much going on the ground, with his longest rush going for only six yards. He should maintain a split in the Browns' backfield heading into a Week 18 matchup against the Bengals, though his fantasy appeal remains minimal.

  • Giants' Devin Singletary: Finds end zone in blowout win

    Singletary rushed the ball eight times for 45 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Raiders. He added four receptions on four targets for 25 yards.

    Tyrone Tracy slightly outpaced Singletary in touches, but Singletary had the more favorable fantasy role. He got the Giants' offense moving early, ripping off a 29-yard run before punching in a one-yard score one player later on the team's second possession. Singletary was also more involved as a pass catcher, logging a season-high four receptions while also topping 80 yards from scrimmage for the second time in his last four games. He should have the chance to end the season in strong form in a favorable Week 18 matchup against the Cowboys while working in a split out of the backfield with Tracy.

  • Giants' Tyrone Tracy: Loses out to Singletary

    Tracy rushed the ball 14 times for 62 yards in Sunday's 34-10 win over the Raiders. He added one reception on two targets for minus-5 yards.

    Tracy led the Giants' backfield in rushing attempts and was fairly efficient with his opportunity. Two of his carries went for at least 10 yards, the longer of which was a 23-yard scamper that pushed the team into field-goal range on their first possession of the second half. However, Tracy missed out on opportunities to Devin Singletary, both as a receiver and near the goal line, to limit his fantasy appeal. Nevertheless, Tracy has at least 60 yards on the ground in six of his last seven games heading into an exploitable Week 18 matchup against the Cowboys.

  • Evan Hull RB | NO

    Saints' Evan Hull: Logs two rushes in win

    Hull tallied two carries for three yards during Sunday's 34-26 victory versus Tennessee.

    Hull had a minimal workload for the fifth week in a row, while fellow backup running back Audric Estime saw an increased workload with a team-high 14 carries for 94 yards. These two have filled in for the Saints' depleted backfield with Devin Neal (hamstring) and Kendre Miller (knee) on IR while RB1 Alvin Kamara (knee) is still sidelined. The 25-year-old Hull has now totaled 17 carries for 36 yards across five appearances this season. He should once again see sparse usage in New Orleans' regular-season finale versus Atlanta.

  • Raiders' Ashton Jeanty: Totals 73 yards

    Jeanty rushed the ball 16 times for 60 yards in Sunday's 34-10 loss to the Giants. He added two receptions on two targets for 13 yards.

    Jeanty couldn't duplicate his Week 16 heroics and was extremely inefficient for most of the game. He delivered long runs of 24 and 14 yards in the second half to bolster his stat line, the former of which came with four minutes remaining in the game and the Raiders down three scores. Jeanty enters a Week 18 matchup against the Chiefs needing 112 rushing yards to reach 1,000 for his rookie season, though he's hit that mark only twice in 16 games to this point.

  • Saquon Barkley RB | PHI

    Eagles' Saquon Barkley: Held to 68 yards against Bills

    Barkley rushed 19 times for 68 yards and was not targeted as a receiver in Sunday's 13-12 win over Buffalo.

    Barkley failed to break away from the Bills' athletic linebacking corps and was held to 3.6 yards per tote Sunday. The 28-year-old failed to extend his modest scoring streak to four games, culminating in a mediocre fantasy performance by the superstar's standards. It was also the first time this season that Barkley did not receive a target, but the workhorse still commanded 19 of Philadelphia's 23 backfield carries. Barkley and his 280-1,140-7 rushing line will attempt to finish off a solid, yet underwhelming, regular season against the Commanders in Week 18.

  • Ty Johnson RB | BUF

    Bills' Ty Johnson: Garners eight touches in Week 17

    Johnson rushed five times for 15 yards and caught three of four targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 13-12 loss to the Eagles.

    Johnson was able to tote the rock a season-high five times while corralling multiple passes for the eighth time in nine games. The running back has proven to be a reliable pass catcher for Buffalo, but unless he reaches the end zone, he doesn't have much fantasy utility in shallow leagues.

  • Sean Tucker RB | TB

    Buccaneers' Sean Tucker: Rushes for eight yards in loss

    Tucker rushed two times for eight yards in Tampa Bay's loss to Miami on Sunday.

    Tucker failed to reel in his lone target in the passing game. Tucker has been handling goal-line duties for the Bucs. Part of a three-way committee in the backfield, Tucker carries extremely minimal fantasy value ahead of a Week 18 date with the Panthers. He's a touchdown-or-bust proposition with Bucky Irving healthy.

  • Buccaneers' Rachaad White: Limited production in Week 17

    White turned two carries into 10 yards and caught both of his targets for seven yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Dolphins.

    White was an afterthought on offense in Week 17, churning out his fewest rushing yards in a game this season, while the two carries were tied for his second lowest total on the year. The running back was able to reel in at least one pass for the 16th consecutive contest this season. With Bucky Irving back operating as the team's primary option in the backfield, White has turned into an unappealing fantasy option.

  • Packers' Emanuel Wilson: Four touches in Week 17

    Wilson rushed three times for 16 yards and caught his only target for eight yards in Saturday's 41-24 loss to the Ravens.

    Wilson, along with the rest of the Packers' running backs, was limited to minimal production in Week 17. Starter Josh Jacobs churned out three yards on four carries and caught one pass for no gain in the game while battling through a calf issue. With Green Bay locked in as the No. 7 seed in the NFC playoffs, it's possible that Jacobs is rested and Wilson earns the nod as the team's lead back in Week 18 versus the Vikings.
