Austin Ekeler News
Wednesday, November 11, 1:28 PM
Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler led the backfield with 10 touches in Week 9's loss to the Rams, handling eight carries for 16 yards along with two receptions (three targets) for 18 yards. Ekeler continues to play behind Rachaad White as the lead, though Ekeler's 48.3% snap share in Week 9 was his highest of the season. The 31-year-old also wasn't overly effective on his opportunities, getting outgained by White 34 to 69 on one more touch. Ekeler doesn't project as anything more than a desperation flex on Thursday night against a Giants defense that has allowed the sixth-fewest PPR points per game to running backs over the last four weeks. Ekeler ranks as RotoBaller's RB40 for Week 10.

Tee Higgins News
Sunday, November 8, 10:03 AM
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins caught both of his touchdowns on first-and-goal in Madrid. Joe Burrow found him from four yards out in the second quarter, then went back to him from eight yards out after the Atlanta Falcons pulled within seven. Higgins finished with five catches on six targets for 32 yards and 20.2 PPR points in Cincinnati's 34-17 Week 9 win. The first score was the 50th touchdown catch of his career, and the second gave him back-to-back multi-touchdown games for the first time. Higgins drew half as many targets as Ja'Marr Chase and caught two of Burrow's three touchdown passes. He had piled up 148 receiving yards against the Baltimore Ravens and 155 against the Tennessee Titans in his previous two games. Higgins caught six passes for 90 yards and a touchdown against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 3. He remains a strong WR2 for the Week 10 home rematch, having cleared 20 PPR points in three straight games. Five of his six touchdown catches this season came during that stretch.
