Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford is worth a look on waiver wires in deep leagues this week, if you're trying to get ahead of a roster crunch down the road. Ford has been playing behind rookies Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson, but he could be in a much bigger role after the team's bye in Week 9 since Judkins is day-to-day, dealing with an AC joint sprain in his shoulder. Ford hasn't gotten much work lately as a rusher, but he did have multiple catches in five of his last seven games, including a pair of five-catch performances. While Sampson would likely headline the backfield if Judkins misses the team's Week 10 contest with the Jets, Ford would also likely get enough playing time to be a deep-league flex consideration. Last season, Ford led the team with 565 rushing yards, while scoring three rushing touchdowns and posting eight plays of at least 20 yards.

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller (knee) suffered a torn ACL in the Week 7 loss to the Chicago Bears on Sunday and will miss the rest of the year, sources told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. It's a tough blow for Miller and for the Saints' backfield depth behind starter Alvin Kamara. The 23-year-old had ascended into the biggest role of his career in his third year in the league as the direct backup to Kamara, carrying the ball 47 times for 193 yards (career-best 4.1 yards per tote) and a touchdown while adding five catches on five targets for 30 yards as a pass-catcher through seven games. Miller has been plagued by the injury bug since entering the NFL as a third-rounder in 2023, as he missed 20 of a possible 34 games in his first two seasons. With Miller now sidelined until next year, rookie Devin Neal becomes the primary handcuff option for Kamara's fantasy managers.
