Rico Dowdle Rushed for 53 Yards in Loss to Saints

Monday, November 10, 12:26 PM

Rico Dowdle rushed for 53 yards on 18 carries and scored the team's only touchdown in a 17-7 loss to the Saints. He also tacked on 10 receiving yards on three receptions and logged 15.3 PPR fantasy points, marking the fifth time in the last six games that he registered double-digit PPR points. Against the Atlanta Falcons in Week 11, Dowdle has the opportunity to display his better form again. The Falcons ranked 31st in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to running backs (32.08) in the four weeks leading up to Week 10.. Jonathan Taylor trampled the Falcons with 244 rushing yards and three TDs while posting 49.6 PPR fantasy points in Week 10. Dowdle is a no-doubt starting option on all formats, as he is capable of being a major fantasy difference-maker in Week 11.

Rachaad White Remains Lead Back for Week 10

Sunday, November 9, 8:14 AM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Rachaad White will remain as the lead back for at least one more week. White is set to make his fifth straight start with Bucky Irving (shoulder, toe) ruled out for this Week 10 matchup against the New England Patriots. During that time, White has seen a significant increase in playing time which has resulted in increased fantasy value. The downside is, White really hasn't found much success on the ground with 41 rushing yards or fewer in three of those four games. He comes into a tough matchup against a Pats defense that has done well against the run. The 26-year-old will likely need to get involved through the air in order to offer RB2 value this weekend.
