Austin Ekeler Officially Inactive For Week 4

Sunday, October 1, 2:51 PM

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (ankle) is officially inactive for Week 4 versus the Las Vegas Raiders. Ekeler has now missed three consecutive games heading into Los Angeles' bye week. Joshua Kelley will operate as the Chargers' lead back once again, though his stats over the duration of Ekeler's absence have been uninspiring. Here's merely a fantasy RB3/FLEX at this point.

De'Von Achane Soars Again On Sunday

Monday, October 2, 1:59 AM

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane took eight carries for 101 yards and two touchdowns with three catches for 19 yards in Week 4's 48-20 loss to the Buffalo Bills. Achane picked up right where he left off from last Sunday's outburst, hitting paydirt on his first two touches with both seeing Tyreek Hill act as a decoy. But as both offenses calmed after scoring five touchdowns on the game's first five drives, so did Achane's usage. The speedy rookie was still able to show off his wheels on a neat 55-yard run in the face of the rout. Achane out-touched Raheem Mostert (who fumbled twice Sunday) 11-10, which is a promising sight for those who broke the FAAB bank to claim him off waiver wires. It remains to be seen what kind of role Miami has in store for Jeff Wilson Jr. (ribs), who might be on the cusp of a return. Achane's weekly home-run potential should keep him in RB2 territory, regardless.
