LeQuint Allen Jr. News
Saturday, September 26, 8:47 PM
Jacksonville Jaguars running back LeQuint Allen Jr. has yet to log an offensive touch through two games this season, and he remains off the fantasy radar heading into Week 3 against the New England Patriots. Allen played 2% of the snaps in Week 1, and although that snap share jumped to 15% last Sunday, his only statistic in the final box score was one target that fell incomplete. The second-year Syracuse product continues to occupy the No. 3 spot on the depth chart behind Bhayshul Tuten and Chris Rodriguez Jr. Allen may have some long-term appeal in dynasty leagues, but this is clearly Tuten's backfield. He belongs on waivers in all redraft leagues as long as Tuten and Rodriguez are healthy.

Mike Washington Jr. News
Saturday, October 3, 5:57 AM
Across the first three games of his NFL career, Las Vegas Raiders rookie running back Mike Washington Jr. has recorded 15 carries for 102 yards and a touchdown. The 23-year-old has flashed high-end upside, including rushing for a 36-yard touchdown in the Raiders' Week 3 win over the New Orleans Saints. However, his production upside is limited while playing behind star Las Vegas back Ashton Jeanty, who has operated as a true three-down workhorse. In Week 4, the Raiders will take on the Kansas City Chiefs. Kansas City has defended well against the run so far this season, ranking 10th in the NFL in total rushing yards allowed (299). The Chiefs have also been very good at limiting explosive plays on the ground, allowing just one carry of 20 or more yards. Given his limited workload, Washington Jr. needs big plays to be useful for fantasy managers. Washington Jr. remains a high-end handcuff running back option, but he should be left on benches in Week 4.
