Austin Ekeler Could See Consistent Role Right Away

Friday, October 2, 5:23 PM

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler recently signed a one-year deal with the organization. He's back with Washington after only playing two games last season due to a torn Achilles tendon. The expectation was that Ekeler would play a depth role, but he might have a bigger impact than expected right away. Fellow back Rachaad White (shoulder) has been ruled out for the Week 4 matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Jacory Croskey-Merritt will be the lead back with Kaytron Allen and Ekeler getting snaps behind him. Ekeler might be on the field more than expected during his first game back with the team.

RJ Harvey a Factor in Broncos Passing Game

Saturday, October 3, 4:00 AM

While he hasn't done much work on the ground this season, totaling only five carries for 24 yards through two games played, Denver Broncos running back RJ Harvey has been a factor in the passing game. Harvey is second among Broncos pass catchers in both targets (11) and receptions (10), while his 64 yards receiving are fourth on the team. This past week, Harvey hauled in six receptions for 41 yards during a win over the Los Angeles Rams. In Week 4, the Broncos face a San Francisco 49ers defense that allowed Arizona Cardinals running back Jeremiyah Love to record five receptions for 19 yards and a touchdown last Sunday. Harvey is RotoBaller's 28th-ranked running back and is projected to score nine fantasy points against San Francisco.
