New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo has emerged as the team's bell cow and enters a challenging Week 4 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers as a volume-based RB2. The Chargers' defense has been elite against running backs, allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to the position (14.57 FPPG) and boasting the NFL's best red zone defense with a 25% TD rate. Despite the tough matchup on paper, Skattebo has been a top-8 fantasy RB over the last two weeks, commanding a 52.7% timeshare and proving his versatility with eight receptions and two rushing touchdowns. While L.A. is stingy on touchdowns, they rank 24th in rushing yards allowed (92.3), meaning Skattebo's high-volume role should keep him productive.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten (shoulder) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers. Tuten started the week as a limited participant in practice, but was able to upgrade to a full session on Friday. That was enough for the Jags to clear the rookie back for Sunday's contest. He should remain in the mix, but Travis Etienne Jr. is still the lead back right now. That being said, Tuten isn't going to offer strong starting value, but is certainly worth a stash in most fantasy formats.
Still trying to decide between Skattebo and Tuten? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Cam Skattebo is projected to score 12.7 points this week while Bhayshul Tuten is projected to score 5.7 points.
