Blake Corum Back on Fantasy Radar After Bye Week?

Wednesday, October 29, 2:29 AM

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum is back on the fantasy radar after a high-volume outing against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London. During that Week 7 contest, Corum rushed for 37 yards on a season-high 12 carries and 34 percent snap share. He also caught a pass. The 24-year-old capitalized on a positive game script, as he and Kyren Williams both handled a dozen rushing attempts in the 35-7 victory. While Williams will remain Los Angeles' lead back, Corum's high-volume showing could be a sign that he'll continue to handle an increased workload going forward. He should showcase this large workload during a projected positive game script against the Saints in Week 9. If Los Angeles takes a sizable lead early in the game, we could see Corum push for 10-12 carries once again. It's common practice for managers to pursue high-volume running backs in good offenses, so even though Corum is behind Williams on the depth chart, he's still an intriguing waiver wire target as a fringe top-36 running back in fantasy football.

Jaleel McLaughlin Inactive for Week 2

Sunday, September 14, 2:40 PM

Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin is a healthy scratch for his team's Week 2 game against the Indianapolis Colts. McLaughlin was also inactive in Week 1, so this decision from the team does not necessarily come as a surprise. Without McLaughlin, Denver will roll with the running back trio of J.K. Dobbins, RJ Harvey, and Tyler Badie.
