Raheem Mostert News

Raheem Mostert Inactive for Raiders' Season Finale

Sunday, January 4, 4:14 PM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Raheem Mostert (knee, ankle) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the Kansas City Chiefs. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity on Friday. Mostert finishes the season having missed two consecutive games. In his absence, Zamir White and Dylan Laube should earn more snaps as the No. 2 running back behind Ashton Jeanty. This game is meaningless for both the Raiders, who have already secured the No. 1 pick in the draft, and the Chiefs, who were previously eliminated from playoff contention. We could see this Kenny Pickett-led offense get creative with personnel on Sunday, but Jeanty is the only Vegas running back who can be started with confidence in fantasy football.

Chase Brown News

Chase Brown Should Be In Line For A Heavy Workload In Miami

Friday, October 9, 1:09 PM

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown should be ready to get a large volume of touches as the Bengals head to Miami to face the Dolphins. Brown had an inefficient day on the ground last week, rushing nine times for just 10 yards in the 17-22 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars. The back salvaged his fantasy day with elite usage through the air, catching 11 passes for 71 yards on 11 targets. Things should be easier for him as the Bengals take on one of the league's worst defenses in Week 5. The Dolphins defense has not been able to stop anyone on the ground or through the air so, it should be smooth sailing for Brown this weekend. Brown could also benefit from the absence of Ja'Marr Chase or Tee Higgins due to injury, opening up more opportunities for fantasy success. Brown is ranked RB5 in our RotoBaller Week 5 PPR rankings, making him a strong start at the position. Fantasy managers should start Brown with confidence this week despite his slow start to the season.
