Raheem Mostert Remains Jeanty's Handcuff Heading Into Week 6

Friday, October 10, 7:33 PM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Raheem Mostert struggled to make an impact in his change-of-pace role during Week 5, totaling just 22 yards on a season-high seven touches. While the 33-year-old veteran still flashes big-play ability--highlighted by a 37-yard run against the Bears earlier this year--his current workload leaves him well outside fantasy relevance. Mostert should be viewed strictly as a handcuff to rookie standout Ashton Jeanty, who has firmly established himself as the lead back. Still, with Dylan Laube and Zamir White buried on the depth chart, Mostert remains the clear next man up if Jeanty were to miss time. For now, he's best left on the waiver wire outside of deeper leagues or as insurance for Jeanty managers looking to protect one of fantasy's rising assets.

Backup Role On Tap for Emanuel Wilson Against Steelers

Friday, October 24, 4:53 PM

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson has seen an uptick in snaps in recent weeks, but remains the clear backup to Josh Jacobs in Green Bay's Week 8 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Wilson has averaged almost six carries per game over the last four games as he's been used to manage a bit of Jacobs' sizable workload for the Packers. Even with Jacobs' questionable tag and him being a game-time decision in Week 7 against the Cardinals, Jacobs still saw double the opportunities that Wilson got. As a pure handcuff to Jacobs in case he's out for any length of time, Wilson shouldn't be rostered in all but the deepest of fantasy leagues. For Week 8 against the Steelers, leave Wilson out of your fantasy lineups.
