Nick Chubb Continues to Work in Reduced Role

Friday, November 28, 9:12 PM

Houston Texans running back Nick Chubb continues to play a reduced role in the team's backfield, which keeps him from being a good fantasy play in most formats this week. Chubb has only totaled 14 rushing attempts in his last three games for a total of 80 yards, along with two catches for only four receiving yards. He has played under 30% of his team's offensive snaps in each of his last three weeks as well, as the team leans more heavily on rookie Woody Marks. Chubb's fantasy value is extremely touchdown-dependent, which is not usually a good thing since he hasn't found the end zone since Week 5 against the Ravens. He's only the RB57 in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings, so he should be left on the bench or waiver wire in most formats.

Rachaad White Likely to Have Reduced Role in Week 13

Friday, November 28, 7:46 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White has seen an increased role in the rushing game with Bucky Irving (shoulder, foot) sidelined for the last seven games. Now, Irving is back and ready to suit up for the Week 13 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals. The Bucs will likely ease him back into the mix, but this won't be a favorable situation for fantasy managers. The expectation is that Sean Tucker will stay involved as well, so this should be a three-back committee. White will probably be at the bottom of that committee, so he won't be an ideal fantasy option for Week 13. At best, White is a low-end flex option for the upcoming matchup against the Cardinals.
