Derrick Henry Back in RB1 Conversation in Week 15

Saturday, December 13, 10:51 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry continues to boast RB1 potential heading into the Week 15 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. Despite finishing as the RB20 in half-PPR leagues against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14, Henry has a bounce back opportunity versus a weaker run defense. In Week 13 against the Bengals, Henry finished with 10 carries for 60 yards and a touchdown to go along with one reception for 44 yards. He could have been used even more in that matchup, and the Ravens' coaching staff took some heat for their decision to not give him the ball more often. The Bengals still rank last against opposing running backs and the Ravens are fighting for their playoff lives, so Henry still carries RB1 value in this game.

De'Von Achane Totals 127 Yards in Monday Night Loss

Tuesday, December 16, 1:01 AM

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane recorded 12 carries for 60 yards to go with six receptions (six targets) for 67 yards as a receiver in Monday night's loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Achane ran efficiently, marking his fifth straight game with at least five yards per carry. The star running back also got involved as a receiver again after recording just one catch over the past two games, leading Miami in receiving yards and notching his sixth game with at least six receptions this season. Despite the Dolphins struggling to move the ball all night in the cold weather in Pittsburgh, Achane was still able to manage 127 total yards and deliver another strong performance for fantasy managers. The 24-year-old profiles as one of the best options in all of fantasy for next week's matchup against the porous Cincinnati Bengals defense.
