Jaylen Warren News
Friday, October 16, 12:10 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is enjoying a breakout campaign, ranking as the fantasy RB9 through the first five weeks, and should continue to produce against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 6. The bad news for Warren is that Tampa Bay is giving up the third-fewest yards per carry and fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing backs. On the plus side, however, the Buccaneers have surrendered the fourth-most receptions to the position. Warren has seen at least four targets in every game this season and secured nine of 12 targets from quarterback Aaron Rodgers over the past two weeks. With Pittsburgh incredibly thin at wide receiver, as Michael Pittman Jr. (foot), Roman Wilson (finger), and Ben Skowronek (calf) are all out and DK Metcalf (illness) is questionable, Warren should be heavily involved in the passing game on Sunday. He may cede some opportunities to teammate Rico Dowdle (toe) if he returns, but Warren remains locked in as a fantasy RB1 given his recent performances and workload.

Zach Charbonnet News
Wednesday, October 21, 3:07 PM
Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) was listed as a full practice participant on Wednesday, according to Corbin K. Smith of Emerald Spectrum. Charbonnet remains on the Physically Unable to Perform list after tearing his ACL in the postseason in January, but barring a setback in practice later this week, the 25-year-old is expected to be activated from the PUP list to make his 2026 season debut this Sunday at home against the Kansas City Chiefs. The question fantasy managers now have is whether Charbonnet will have a full workload in his return this weekend after missing the first six weeks of the year. Rookie Jadarian Price (chest) remains on Injured Reserve, but the Seahawks still have two very capable backs in Emanuel Wilson and George Holani, so Charbs could have a limited workload if the Seahawks choose to ease him back in on Sunday Night Football. He may not be a slam-dunk must-start RB in Week 7, but the former second-rounder from UCLA should be rostered in all fantasy leagues. Charbonnet has 20 rushing touchdowns in the last two seasons, including 730 rushing yards and 12 rushing TDs on 184 carries in 16 regular-season games a year ago while sharing the backfield with Kenneth Walker.
