Aaron Jones Sr. News
Friday, October 2, 12:54 PM
Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. is facing what is likely to be his most favorable fantasy circumstances of the year when the Miami Dolphins visit U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday. The veteran not only has complete control of the backfield while backfield mate Jordan Mason (thumb) is on injured reserve, but he's now facing the 32nd-ranked defense against half-PPR running backs. The Vikings have certainly struggled themselves on offense, ranking dead last in yards gained, but Jones figures to get the lion's share of work against one of the NFL's worst teams. As quarterback Kyler Murray acclimates to a new offense, any semblance of a passing game should benefit Jones. He's RotoBaller's No. 14 running back in Week 4, making him a high-quality RB2 in most formats.

Ashton Jeanty News
Friday, October 2, 12:47 PM
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty will shoulder his toughest workload yet when the Silver and Black host the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 4. Despite still searching for his first rushing touchdown of the season, the second-year back ranks sixth in the NFL in carries (63) and 10th in rushing yards (206), and he adds 13 targets for 97 yards and two passing TDs. Jeanty is also carrying a massive workload, playing over 80% of offensive snaps through Week 3. The Chiefs have allowed fewer than 100 yards on the ground in three straight games, but Jeanty should still produce plenty given his versatile role. He is a high-end RB2 across fantasy formats in Week 4.
