Jeremy McNichols Hopes To Build Off Breakout Game

Friday, October 4, 5:36 PM

Washington Commanders running back Jeremy McNichols is coming off the best game of his career and could continue to carve out a role in the Washington offense with Brian Robinson Jr. (knee) questionable for Sunday's game. Last week, the former Titan found the end zone twice on just eight carries. He totaled 68 yards. Fantasy managers in deeper formats looking for an upside running back should consider stashing McNichols over the weekend, as he could see a similar workload if Robinson cannot suit up. Austin Ekeler typically sees passing work, which could open the door for McNichols to receive double-digit carries.

Ray Davis Still A High-Upside Bench Stash

Friday, October 4, 10:40 AM

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis remains one of the best running back bench stashes across the league as the NFL enters Week 5. Under offensive coordinator Joe Brady, the Bills lean on James Cook and the running game. The rookie has been called upon to spell Cook on early downs. Veteran Ty Johnson would command the passing downs work if Cook suffered an injury. Blowouts have given Davis several opportunities, averaging over eight carries per game over the last three contests. In a closer game, his touches are likely cut in half. Keep Davis on fantasy football benches against Houston.
