Cordarrelle Patterson A Risky Choice For Week 14

Sunday, December 8, 9:20 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Cordarrelle Patterson saw six touches during last week's win over the Cincinnati Bengals. The veteran back rushed three times for 16 yards while hauling in all three of his targets for an additional 37 yards through the air. The Steelers have found a way to get Patterson involved in the offense, but his role is unlikely to expand with Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren healthy right now. The expectation is that Patterson will few a handful of touches, but it's unlikely to be enough to warrant streaming him in any fantasy formats.

James Conner Is A Solid RB1 In Week 16

Friday, December 20, 11:55 PM

Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner is a must-start RB1 in Week 16 when the Cardinals face the Carolina Panthers on the road. Conner will look to eclipse 1,000 rushing yards for a second straight season, entering this game with 973 yards. He has been a workhorse all year, posting ten games with 20 or more touches. The Cardinals have no margin for error if they want to keep their playoff hopes alive, and the offense has relied on Conner to carry the load. Since signing his contract extension, Conner has put together back-to-back games with 90 or more rushing yards. The vibes are high with Conner and the Cardinals' rushing attack, and fantasy managers should trust him in this matchup.
