Ashton Jeanty a Risky Low-End RB2 in Week 10

Friday, November 13, 12:56 PM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty is having a challenging season, and he won't get any relief in Week 10 against a stingy Seattle Seahawks defense. The 22-year-old continues to mix short-pass duties with the run game, but has disappointed fantasy managers overall as his efficiency declines and he loses some of his workload to Mike Washington Jr. In Week 9, Jeanty had six carries for 25 yards and caught five of seven targets for negative ground in a loss to the San Francisco 49ers. He and the Raiders now face Seattle's top-ranked defense that has allowed just 21.7 yards per running back per game through Week 9. Jeanty's contributions to the passing game will also be stymied, especially since Fernando Mendoza is making his first career start. Not to mention that Mendoza is younger than Kirk Cousins and may opt to run the ball himself. Jeanty is a risky low-end RB2 for a difficult Week 10 matchup.

Kaelon Black A Deep League Flex Candidate In Potential Shootout

Friday, November 13, 7:17 PM

San Francisco 49ers running back Kaelon Black handled 11 carries for a season-high 70 yards last week against the Raiders, outgaining starter Christian McCaffrey on the ground. It was the second time in as many games that the rookie outgained CMC on the ground, and the fourth time overall. Black's 29.1% rush share in the 49ers' backfield is among the highest in the NFL among non-starting running backs, and he is making good use of his opportunities, averaging 4.5 yards per carry. San Francisco's offense should be in a high gear again in the Week 10 matchup with the Cowboys. Dallas has given up 129.7 rushing yards and four rushing touchdowns to running backs over the last three weeks and has allowed the fourth-most explosive runs this season. Black is projected as a back-end RB3 in Week 10 and can be started in deeper leagues.
