Rico Dowdle News
Monday, September 28, 12:58 PM
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rico Dowdle (toe) was not seen during the open portion of his team's practice on Monday, per Mike DeFabo of The Athletic. Dowdle was inactive for Pittsburgh's Week 3 win over the Cincinnati Bengals due to a toe injury. The Steelers have a short week in Week 4 as they prepare to play the Cleveland Browns on Thursday Night Football, which could increase the likelihood that Dowdle misses a second straight game. Dowdle was off to a slow start to his first season in Pittsburgh before getting injured, recording 65 scrimmage yards on 19 touches across two contests. With Dowdle sidelined against the Bengals, Steelers back Jaylen Warren dominated backfield work and had a monster game, recording 176 scrimmage yards on 20 touches. If Dowdle remains out in Week 4, Warren would likely profile as a must-start running back against Cleveland.

Rhamondre Stevenson News
Sunday, September 27, 6:17 PM
New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson once again didn't give fantasy managers much to cheer about on Sunday. Stevenson carried the ball seven times for 22 yards, while hauling in three receptions for 16 yards through the air in the loss. This is now back-to-back games that Stevenson has seen fewer than 10 carries in a game. The game script was likely part of it during this game, with the Jacksonville Jaguars blowing them out. The Patriots mainly had to focus on passing in the second half, with the team being down multiple scores. Fantasy managers are hopeful for better days ahead for Stevenson against the Buffalo Bills in Week 4.
