Dare Ogunbowale Expected To Be Primary Backup

Saturday, October 24, 3:17 AM

Houston Texans running back Dare Ogunbowale will be the second running back for Houston this week against the Giants, with both David Montgomery (groin) and Jawhar Jordan (quad) ruled out. The veteran has been active in each of the last three games but has only played one snap, without a carry or a catch. While Woody Marks is expected to handle almost all the work in the backfield, the team is confident in Ogunbowale's ability to succeed as well, according to offensive coordinator Nick Caley. Caley said of Ogunbowale, "We have faith whoever's out there, we have faith that we're going to put them in the best position." Barring an injury to Marks, though, Ogunbowale will probably be only involved a little bit in the team's game plan. He is only the RB57 in RotoBaller's Week 7 rankings, so he can be left on the waiver wire in all but the deepest of leagues.

Commanders Elevate RB Craig Reynolds from Practice Squad Amid Injuries

Saturday, October 3, 10:24 AM

Washington Commanders running back Craig Reynolds has been elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts in London. Washington needed another healthy body with Rachaad White (shoulder) ruled out, and the move also adds some uncertainty around how much Austin Ekeler will be asked to do right away. Ekeler only rejoined the Commanders earlier this week after recovering from last season's Achilles tear, so the team has had just a few practices to work him back into the offense. Reynolds' elevation doesn't necessarily mean Ekeler will be inactive, but it gives Washington another option if his workload is limited. Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Kaytron Allen are also available in a backfield that suddenly has several moving parts. Reynolds may end up serving mostly as depth Sunday, but his elevation is worth noting with White unavailable and Ekeler's immediate role still unclear.
