Ezekiel Elliott Leads Team In Rush Attempts In Loss

Monday, October 14, 10:49 AM

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott saw eight carries in the blowout loss to Detroit. Elliott only gained 17 yards, rushing at an abysmal 2.1 yards per carry against the tough Lions' front. He saw no passing game usage, severely limiting both his fantasy floor and ceiling. Elliott was severely outplayed by Rico Dowdle, who gained 5.0 yards per carry and also saw receiving usage. The 29-year-old is not a usable fantasy option and can safely be dropped in all formats heading into Dallas' bye week.

Rachaad White Bounces Back With Two Receiving Touchdowns

Tuesday, October 22, 12:42 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White rushed for 40 yards on 10 carries during Monday's Week 7 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. He was much more impactful in the passing game, catching all six of his targets for an additional 71 receiving yards and two touchdowns. After losing some touches to Bucky Irving and then sitting out Week 6 due to injury, White bounced back in a huge way against the Ravens. He should remain heavily involved heading into next week's clash with the Atlanta Falcons, especially with Chris Godwin (ankle) likely sidelined for the rest of the season. White is a strong fantasy RB2 given his rushing, receiving, and touchdown productivity.
