Rico Dowdle a Rising Fantasy Asset After Past Two Showings

Wednesday, November 11, 5:18 AM

Pittsburgh running back Rico Dowdle is on the rise as a fantasy asset after what he's done over the past two games. In Week 7 against New Orleans, Dowdle went for 41 rushing yards on nine attempts, plus caught all six of his targets for 45 more yards. In Week 8 against Cleveland, Dowdle finished with 56 rushing yards and a score over 15 carries, while not being targeted in the passing game. He logged 28 offensive snaps in both games, which was over 40% of the team's total in each contest. Dowdle is trending up heading into Week 10, which offers him a pretty average fantasy matchup against Cincinnati. He didn't face the Bengals earlier this season, but has a pretty solid outlook based on what we've seen from him of late, so he can be started in deeper leagues and considered as a flex-level option in standard leagues.

Jeremiyah Love Headed to Injured Reserve With High-Ankle Sprain

Tuesday, November 3, 9:14 AM

Arizona Cardinals rookie first-round running back Jeremiyah Love (ankle) is headed to injured reserve after suffering a high-ankle sprain that is expected to sideline him for four to five weeks, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The first-round rookie suffered the injury during the first quarter of Sunday's 33-30 overtime victory over the Dallas Cowboys, finishing with 23 rushing yards on nine carries. Love had just returned from a two-game absence caused by a separate left ankle injury, making this another setback in his rookie campaign. Tyler Allgeier took advantage of the depleted backfield, rushing for 147 yards and a touchdown on 11 carries while adding five receptions for 44 yards and another score. Bam Knight also exited with a concussion, while James Conner remains on injured reserve. Allgeier is now a priority waiver-wire addition with potential RB2 value during Love's absence, beginning with Sunday's matchup against the Seattle Seahawks.
