Jonathan Taylor Rushes for Two Scores in Big Win Over Commanders

Sunday, October 4, 8:55 PM

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor totaled 20 carries, 95 rushing yards, and two rushing touchdowns during Sunday's Week 4 win over the Washington Commanders in London. He also caught one of his four targets for an additional two receiving yards. Taylor has now scored multiple touchdowns in three of his four games this season, and he continues to occupy an every-down role as the undisputed leader of Indianapolis' backfield. The veteran ball-carrier is the focal point of the offense with Alec Pierce (heel) and Keenan Allen (groin) sidelined, but the unit should continue to run through him even after those receivers return. Taylor projects as a high-end RB1 rest-of-season, and he should continue to be started in all leagues ahead of Week 5 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, who just surrendered 96 scrimmage yards and a touchdown to Quinshon Judkins.

Omarion Hampton News

Omarion Hampton a Risky RB2 in Week 4 vs. Seahawks

Saturday, October 3, 5:14 AM

Los Angeles Chargers running back Omarion Hampton is coming off his worst performance of the 2026 season. The 23-year-old had less than a 50% snap share, produced 5.6 PPR points, and finished as the RB40 for the week. Gloomy skies remain for Hampton as he heads to Seattle to face the reigning Super Bowl champions. The Seahawks' defense hasn't allowed a rushing touchdown, has allowed the third-fewest yards per carry, and has allowed the sixth-fewest rushing yards through three games. As a result, Hampton enters Week 4 as RotoBaller's PPR RB24 in a tough matchup. Hampton is a borderline RB2 this week and will likely need to find the end zone to pay off for fantasy managers. The young back has yet to live up to lofty offseason expectations as he heads into Week 4.
