Bhayshul Tuten Continues String of RB2 Performances in Week 3

Sunday, September 27, 5:36 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten surpassed 65 rushing yards once again in a 35-6 victory over the New England Patriots. He finished with a season-high 73 rushing yards on 15 attempts, a touchdown, and also added two receptions for 17 yards. Tuten has been a symbol of consistency so far this season, a rare commodity at the running back position. No matter how well the offense has done overall, he has managed to get his touches and fantasy points. If Tuten can continue this run of 15-plus touches and 70-90 total yards, he will continue to be a valuable RB2 for fantasy managers. He'll be looking to produce once more in Week 4 against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Jacory Croskey-Merritt A Risky Option in Week 3 Against Seattle

Saturday, September 26, 8:49 AM

Washington Commanders running back Jacory Croskey-Merritt was bottled up for only 48 yards on 13 touches in Week 2's loss to the Dallas Cowboys. And after leading Rachaad White in touches, 17 to 9, in Week 1, the two each saw 13 touches apiece in Week 2. White looked good and produced 83 total yards against Dallas and could see more work going forward. Among qualified rushers per NFL Pro, Croskey-Merritt's -25 rushing yards over expected ranks third worst. The second-year back will also be without the team's top QB in Jayden Daniels (elbow) as they face the vaunted Seattle Seahawks defense in Week 3, who are allowing 3,7 yards per carry so far this season, which is tied for seventh-best in the league. Croskey-Merritt projects as a low-end flex option in Week 3, coming in as RB40 in RotoBaller's Week 3 PPR rankings.
