J.K. Dobbins Leans on Volume and Touchdowns Entering Week 7

Saturday, October 24, 7:15 AM

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins is a low-end RB2 for Sunday's road matchup against the Arizona Cardinals, particularly in standard and half-PPR leagues, because the volume keeps coming. He has scored in consecutive games despite averaging just 3.3 yards per carry this season, handling 17 carries for 41 yards and a touchdown against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6 and adding three receptions for five yards. Arizona has ruled out defensive tackle Walter Nolen (ankle), while defensive lineman Darius Robinson (back) is questionable. Dobbins has 81 carries this season compared with RJ Harvey's 21, but only 27 receiving yards, and Denver could also regain Jonah Coleman (ankle), who led the team in rushing in Week 2 before getting injured.

Kyle Monangai Out for Third Consecutive Game

Wednesday, October 21, 11:22 AM

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai (toe, thumb) has been ruled out for Thursday's Week 7 matchup against the New England Patriots, according to Kevin Fishbain of The Athletic. Monangai will miss his third consecutive game after suffering the injuries during Chicago's Week 4 victory over the New York Jets, when he rushed for 146 yards and two touchdowns on 30 carries. The second-year back hasn't played since that performance, which has left D'Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson to handle the backfield duties. Swift recorded 16 carries for 44 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 31-23 victory over Atlanta, adding four receptions for 26 yards. Johnson was heavily involved too, rushing 13 times for 51 yards and a touchdown while catching two passes for 34 yards, although he lost a fumble. With Monangai unavailable, both backs should keep seeing substantial opportunities, with Swift holding the lead role.
