Tyler Badie News
Monday, September 21, 11:16 AM
Denver Broncos running back Tyler Badie could have some short-term PPR appeal if the team's backfield remains shorthanded. Badie had only one carry for one yard in Sunday's win over Jacksonville, but he caught two of three targets for 28 yards after J.K. Dobbins left with a hamstring injury. RJ Harvey was already inactive with a hamstring issue, leaving Jonah Coleman to handle most of the early-down work while Badie worked more in passing situations. The problem for fantasy managers is that the injury outlook has already improved. Dobbins was reported to be "good" Monday, while Harvey is also trending in the right direction. If either returns for Week 3, Badie's path to useful volume becomes much thinner. RotoBaller currently recommends him only in 14-team PPR leagues and deeper. Badie is worth monitoring, but for now he is more of a deep-league stash than a player fantasy managers need to prioritize.

Will Shipley News
Friday, September 18, 6:55 PM
Philadelphia Eagles running back Will Shipley was barely seen on the field during the Week 1 win over the Washington Commanders. Shipley rushed the ball twice for four yards while hauling in his lone target for eight yards in the victory. Shipley saw minimal work in the backfield behind workhorse back Saquon Barkley. The expectation is that the Eagles will continue to mix in Tank Bigsby and Shipley sparingly when Barkley needs a break. It's unlikely that either back offers a ton of weekly value while Barkley is healthy. Between the two backs, Bigsby is the much better handcuff for fantasy managers. Shipley belongs on the waiver wire in most formats until he proves otherwise.
