Rasheen Ali Sees No Offensive Work in Week 1

Saturday, September 19, 11:38 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Rasheen Ali was active in Week 1, but he never saw the field on offense. Ali played 14 special-teams snaps in the 41-23 win over Indianapolis and did not record a touch. Derrick Henry handled 24 carries, while Justice Hill worked as the clear second back with six carries and one reception. That left nothing for Ali behind them. Baltimore still lists him third on the running back depth chart, and his special-teams standing has slipped too. Ali entered Week 1 as the Ravens' top kick returner, but LaJohntay Wester is now listed first with Ali second. None of that points to a growing fantasy role. Ali remains useful depth for Baltimore, but Week 1 showed a wide gap between him and the two backs ahead of him. Until he gets offensive snaps, there is very little here for fantasy managers to chase.

Jonah Coleman News

Jonah Coleman Shoulders the Bulk of the Workload Sunday

Sunday, November 8, 1:19 PM

Denver Broncos running back Jonah Coleman totaled 17 rushing attempts, 57 rushing yards, and one rushing touchdown during Sunday's Week 9 win over the Carolina Panthers. He also caught all four of his targets for an additional 31 receiving yards. Coleman had another impressive showing as he cemented himself as the team's No. 1 running back ahead of JK Dobbins. The rookie now has 36 touches, 192 scrimmage yards, and two touchdowns over the last two weeks. The 23-year-old has quickly jumped from No. 3 to No. 1 on the depth chart, and he should continue to lead the way on the other side of the Broncos' Week 10 bye. Eventually, there may be a conversation about selling high on Coleman in redraft leagues when RJ Harvey (knee) returns, but for now, there is no doubt that this backfield belongs to Coleman.
