Brian Robinson News
Monday, September 28, 8:54 PM
Atlanta Falcons running back Brian Robinson is clearly the No. 2 option in this backfield, but he has quietly carved out standalone value early in the 2026 season. The backup to Bijan Robinson, Brian Robinson has emerged as more than just a handcuff through the first three weeks. Over his last two games, he has 21 carries, 101 rushing yards, one rushing touchdown, and 16 receiving yards. He has scored at least 8.7 fantasy points (PPR) in each of his last two contests, delivering flex-level production in most leagues. Fantasy managers who have Bijan Robinson on their roster should scoop up Brian Robinson in a heartbeat, as he's one of the top handcuffs in fantasy football. However, there's also a case to be made for him to be claimed by managers who don't have the Falcons' starter.

Kyle Monangai News
Wednesday, September 30, 4:58 PM
Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai is not on the team's Week 4 injury report and was able to practice in full on Wednesday. Monangai has nursed a knee injury in the early weeks of the season, but it has not kept him from playing in any of the first three games of 2026. The 24-year-old former seventh-round pick in 2025 from Rutgers has been impressive so far in his sophomore season while splitting the backfield with D'Andre Swift. He has 30 rushing attempts for 178 yards (5.9 yards per carry) and one rushing touchdown, while catching all four of his targets for 35 yards through the air. At the very least, the physical, big-play back should continue to be a strong RB3/flex option for fantasy managers, even with quarterback Caleb Williams (hamstring) likely to miss another game this weekend when the New York Jets visit on Sunday. Monangai has had exactly 10 rushing attempts in all three games so far this year, although he had just 31 rushing yards in Monday night's upset win over the Philadelphia Eagles.
