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.

Kyle Monangai News
Saturday, October 3, 6:11 AM
Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai enters Sunday's home game against the New York Jets with low-end RB3/flex value in light of a tough matchup. Monangai and teammate D'Andre Swift have a stranglehold on Chicago's backfield, accounting for every running back rush attempt so far this season. While the former can't be trusted as a weekly high-upside fantasy play, a steady average of 11.3 opportunities (ten rushes) per game has kept him in the conversation. In Week 4, the second-year back out of Rutgers won't be afforded any favors in a Jets defense that's held opponents to a scant 87.3 yards per game on the ground. All that said, Monangai's involvement in a capable Bears offense and his ability to break off chunk gains should keep his fantasy value afloat until quarterback Caleb Williams (hamstring) returns. The New Jersey native is RotoBaller's PPR RB33 for the weekend ahead.
