Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds rushed 14 times for 74 yards and caught his only targets for 12 yards in the Week 8 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Reynolds has found extra work in the absence of David Montgomery (ribs), but that could be coming to an end after the team's Week 9 bye. Assuming Montgomery can return in Week 10 against the Los Angeles Chargers, Reynolds will be safe to drop to the waiver wire moving forward. In super deep leagues, Reynolds can continue to be stashed.

Green Bay Packers running back Patrick Taylor will take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 15. The 25-year-old has been efficient with his touches as the No. 2 back over the past few weeks, averaging a whopping 9.8 yards per carry. With Aaron Jones (knee) and AJ Dillon (thumb) both listed as questionable for this Sunday's game, Taylor could be in line for an increased workload or even the starting role if both aforementioned backs were to sit out. The problem is the matchup, as Tampa Bay allows the 11th-fewest fantasy points per game to running backs and are tied for the fifth-fewest rushing touchdowns allowed all season. Taylor would garner flex appeal if named the starter but temper expectations due to the matchup. If either Jones or Dillon are active, the fourth-year back can be safely left on the waiver wire.
