Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor continued his dominant season with a monster showing in his team's 38-14 Week 8 victory over the Tennessee Titans. Taylor recorded 12 carries for 153 yards and two touchdowns, adding two catches for 21 yards and a receiving score as well. The 26-year-old running back is arguably on an MVP pace so far this season. Through eight games, Taylor has recorded 850 rushing yards and 12 touchdowns on 143 carries as well as 206 receiving yards and two touchdowns on 25 catches. He's the engine of a dominant Colts offense that is currently averaging over 30 points per game. Indianapolis will travel to Pittsburgh to take on the Steelers in Week 9. As long as Taylor is healthy, he profiles as a must-start fantasy running back every week.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown hasn't had the year most had anticipated heading into the 2025 campaign. He scored a touchdown in the Week 1 win over the Cleveland Browns. Unfortunately, the 25-year-old hasn't visited the end zone since. However, Brown at least displayed signs of life in the Thursday night win over the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 7, finishing with 11 carries for 108 yards, marking his first game in nearly a year with over 100 yards on the ground. Rightfully so, fantasy participants remain skeptical. Still, Brown was selected early in fantasy drafts leading up to the season, so will managers feel comfortable keeping him on the bench? Some will continue to take that approach, and that's understandable. On the other hand, injuries have been a common issue for teams around the National Football League, meaning others may not have anywhere else to turn. All things considered, Brown has one of the highest ceilings at the running back position. Despite some imposing run-stoppers for the Jets, specifically Quinnen Williams and Brandon Stephens, Brown's pass-catching acumen gives him more than enough upside to warrant starting consideration in all fantasy setups.
Still trying to decide between Taylor and Brown? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Jonathan Taylor is projected to score 8.5 points this week while Chase Brown is projected to score 11.7 points.
