Chris Rodriguez Jr. Worth Adding as Backfield Insurance

Monday, November 9, 5:54 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Chris Rodriguez Jr. rushed 10 times for 19 yards and a touchdown in Thursday's 33-10 win over Baltimore. He also caught two passes for 13 yards. Rodriguez has scored in consecutive games and now has four rushing touchdowns this season. He played 44.6% of the offensive snaps Thursday, although Bhayshul Tuten remained Jacksonville's lead back despite dealing with foot and ankle injuries. Rodriguez has handled 12 red-zone carries this season, giving him some touchdown potential even in a secondary role. His bigger fantasy value comes as Tuten's backup, with a path to more touches if Tuten misses time. Rostered in 33% of leagues, Rodriguez is worth considering as running back insurance in 12-team leagues and deeper.

Sione Vaki Worth Adds in Deep League Before Week 10

Tuesday, November 10, 5:08 AM

Detroit running back Sione Vaki has factored in enough over the past few games to emerge as a possible waiver wire add in very deep fantasy leagues. He has 30 rushing attempts on the season, with 14 of those coming over the past two contests. Vaki has seven receptions over eight targets this season, with three targets and catches over the past two games. He has racked up only 135 rushing yards and 64 receiving yards, but he's starting to get enough work to be a possible streaming option in very deep leagues. His Week 10 matchup against the Patriots is a tougher one though, so he's likely to be skipped outside very deep fantasy setups. He's one to remember if Jahmyr Gibbs ever were to be injured or out.
