New York Giants running back Matt Breida (hamstring) is dealing with a hamstring injury in Week 16 and was listed as limited on the team's first practice report on Thursday. The good news is Breida has an extra day to recover this week with the G-Men not playing until Christmas Day against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles, but his status bears watching as the backup to starting RB Saquon Barkley. The 28-year-old should be available in Week 16, barring a setback the next couple of days. Breida doesn't have any standalone fantasy value with limited volume behind a bell-cow back in an offense that doesn't put up many points. He has only 55 rushing attempts all year for 151 yards (2.75 yards per carry) and one touchdown in 14 total contests. If Breida is limited or out on Monday, rookie Eric Gray would be Barkley's direct backup.

Houston Texans running back Dare Ogunbowale (hamstring) is considered questionable for the Week 1 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. The veteran back has been limited all week in practice due to a lingering hamstring issue. That being said, he could possibly be on the sideline for this game, assuming he's not better by Sunday. His absence won't have much of an impact in the backfield. Ogunbowale is fourth on the depth chart and is mainly a special teams player right now. Sometimes, Ogunbowale is mixed into passing downs, so Devin Singletary and Dameon Pierce could see an uptick in value if Ogunbowale is unable to play.
Still trying to decide between Breida and Ogunbowale? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Matt Breida is projected to score 1.0 points this week while Dare Ogunbowale is projected to score 0.0 points.
