Dameon Pierce News
Saturday, October 17, 5:37 PM
Philadelphia Eagles running back Dameon Pierce will get the start in the backfield during Sunday's Week 6 matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Pierce will be forced to start due to Saquon Barkley (hamstring) and Will Shipley (foot) both being out for this game. Last week, Pierce rushed 11 times for 14 yards during the loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The hope is that Pierce has better results against the Panthers' defense, which has struggled to stop the rushing game. They've allowed 156.5 rushing yards per game, which is the second-most in the NFL right now. Fantasy managers looking for help at running back should consider streaming Pierce this weekend.

Josh Williams News

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Josh Williams has been suspended without pay for violating the NFL's Performance Enhancing Substance Policy, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Williams is eligible for reinstatement on December 16, which will come after Tampa Bay's Week 16 divisional matchup against the Carolina Panthers. Williams is an undrafted rookie out of LSU who has only appeared in three games this season, mostly as a special teamer. The 25-year-old has just eight offensive snaps in the three games, recording four carries for 11 yards in Tampa Bay's Week 8 blowout win over the Saints.
