Alvin Kamara Slides to Flex Range in Week 10

Friday, November 13, 7:22 AM

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara gained 28 of his 32 rushing yards in overtime against Cleveland. He had three carries for four yards in regulation, half as many attempts as he logged against Pittsburgh before the bye. Kamara caught seven passes for 57 yards against the Steelers and three for 17 against the Browns as his snap share dipped from 56% to 49%. He practiced fully Thursday after missing Wednesday's session, when the Saints listed him for rest and a back issue. Travis Etienne Jr. (hamstring) was limited both days and remained on injured reserve Thursday. In the two games they played together this season, Etienne had 21 carries and four catches to Kamara's 18 carries and six catches. Kamara is a low-end flex in 12-team PPR leagues against Carolina after Audric Estim handled 14 carries in regulation. Kamara drew four of the five targets thrown to Saints backs, including an eight-yard catch that got New Orleans to Cleveland's two-yard line late in the fourth quarter. Estim took the handoff on the next play and scored.

Chase Brown News

Chase Brown Falls Short of RB1 Expectations in Madrid

Sunday, November 8, 9:08 AM

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown was stopped for no gain from the one-yard line in the second quarter, and Joe Burrow scored on the next snap. Brown finished with 57 yards on nine carries and caught all three of his targets for 18 yards as Cincinnati beat the Atlanta Falcons 34-17 in Madrid in Week 9. He scored 10.5 PPR points after entering the game at RB11 in RotoBaller's weekend PPR rankings. Samaje Perine rushed for 43 yards on 11 carries, seven of them in the fourth quarter as Cincinnati protected a lead. Brown had seven carries to Perine's four through three quarters. Brown gained two more yards on the ground than he did in Week 8, but his catches dropped from eight against the Tennessee Titans to three. He finished with 8.9 PPR points in his first meeting with the Pittsburgh Steelers, when he caught just two passes. Brown remains a PPR RB2 for the Week 10 home rematch, with his value still tied to catches during a seven-game touchdown drought.
