Kansas City Chiefs running back Samaje Perine will face the Denver Broncos on the road in Week 18. With Isiah Pacheco marked as out and Kareem Hunt listed as doubtful for this week's contest, Perine should handle the majority of touches out of the backfield. The 29-year-old receiving back will face the Broncos, who rank 15th in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs this season. Despite shouldering the load, Perine's ceiling will be lower with Carson Wentz under center this week. Perine is ranked RB44 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a desperation flex option this week. There is a possibility that Perine is fantasy-relevant through sheer volume on the ground and through the air, but scoring opportunities could be at a premium in this contest. Fantasy managers should look elsewhere.

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright has been mostly a non-factor in his rookie campaign. De'Von Achane has commanded the backfield, but there isn't any indication that head coach Mike McDaniel will split the touches moving forward. At this point in the season, he should be on the waiver wire in most redraft leagues. With Achane fully healthy, Wright will not be a starting option for the rest of the fantasy season.
Still trying to decide between Perine and Wright? Check on the latest news to make sure both players are active and healthy. Our PPR projections show that Samaje Perine is projected to score 7.3 points this week while Jaylen Wright is projected to score 0.0 points.
