George Holani Offers Emergency Plug-and-Play Upside Against Kansas City

Saturday, October 24, 6:24 AM

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani could provide emergency fantasy value in Sunday's Week 7 matchup against Kansas City, with Zach Charbonnet (knee) officially ruled out. Holani rushed five times for 20 yards and a touchdown against Denver in Week 6 and should continue sharing backfield opportunities with Emanuel Wilson. Wilson remains the preferred early-down option and ranks RB24 in RotoBaller's Week 7 rankings, while Holani checks in at RB46. Holani's potential passing-down involvement provides additional PPR appeal, although his limited touches make him a risky plug-and-play option best reserved for deeper leagues.

DJ Giddens a Healthy Scratch for Season Opener

Sunday, September 13, 7:55 AM

Indianapolis Colts running back DJ Giddens (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Baltimore Ravens. We already knew that Giddens had fallen to the No. 3 spot on the depth chart after rookie Seth McGowan had an impressive camp, but we weren't necessarily expecting him to be inactive altogether. With that being said, in addition to a mediocre camp performance, Giddens produced just 96 rushing yards on 26 carries as a rookie last year, so he's clearly not a vital part of the offense. Between Jonathan Taylor and McGowan, the Colts will carry just two running backs into Sunday's season opener.
