Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. had a disappointing showing against the Chicago Bears in Week 8. This was his lowest fantasy output of the season, as he totaled just 65 rushing yards and 11 receiving yards off one reception. This was the first time this season that the Alabama product failed to score double-digit PPR points. Despite the struggles this afternoon, fantasy managers should continue to view the 25-year-old as a high-end RB2 playing on a potent Washington offense. Next weekend, he will face the New York Giants, who have allowed the 14th-fewest PPR points to opposing running backs.

Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier recorded double-digit carries for the second time in three weeks in Sunday's 31-26 win over the Buccaneers, but was able to gain just 33 yards on his 12 totes. His 2.8 yards per carry was a far cry from the 5.7 YPC he averaged heading into the game and it was the first time since Week 3 that he failed to attract even a single target in the passing game. Bijan Robinson was the preferred option there, hauling in all six of his targets for 37 yards while gaining 63 yards on the ground on 13 attempts (4.8 YPC), just one more carry than Allgeier. The involvement in the rushing game is promising, but unless he finds the end zone, the 24-year-old back is nothing more than a low-end Flex option and handcuff for Robinson managers.
