Chris Brooks is the Packers Running Back to Roster for Now

Tuesday, September 29, 10:08 PM

Green Bay Packers running back Chris Brooks has been highly underwhelming to start the season, but he remains the most-involved member of this Green Bay backfield. Brooks has handled more snaps than MarShawn Lloyd and Kaleb Johnson in each of the last two weeks, even though it has amounted to only four carries and two receptions during that span. The 26-year-old is far from the must-start range in fantasy football, but if we absolutely had to start a Green Bay running back, the snap share comparison would point to Brooks by a slight margin. There's reason to believe that the Packers could finally start to run the ball a little more starting in Week 4, as they're heavy favorites against a Jalon Daniels-led Buccaneers squad. Because of his snap share, Brooks is at least worth some consideration on the fantasy radar this week, even if he's not a guaranteed plug-and-play option right away.

Seth McGowan News

Seth McGowan Remains Stash Option

Tuesday, September 29, 6:22 PM

Indianapolis Colts running back Seth McGowan saw the most action of the season during the Week 3 win over the Houston Texans. McGowan rushed the ball four times for 14 yards in the two-point victory. The 24-year-old has seen a minimal role in the backfield over the first three weeks of the season. His role is unlikely to grow much with Jonathan Taylor being the workhorse back in Indy right now. The rookie back is still one of the more interesting handcuff options around the league. McGowan could be one injury away from being the starter in an offense that loves to run the ball. He's worth stashing in deep leagues and dynasty formats on the chance that Taylor misses time.
