Zach Charbonnet Won't Play in Week 5

Friday, October 9, 12:41 PM

Seattle Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, per John Boyle. Charbonnet is nearing his return to the field, but he isn't quite ready yet. He was able to get through limited practice sessions this week, but it's not enough to clear him for game action. The 25-year-old will miss at least one more game, but he could return for next Thursday's matchup against the Denver Broncos. Emanuel Wilson should remain the lead back after rushing for 81 yards and a touchdown last week. It looks like Wilson will have streaming value for at least one more game.

Browns Add Running Back Jaleel McLaughlin to Active Roster

Tuesday, September 15, 12:34 PM

The Cleveland Browns signed running back Jaleel McLaughlin to the active 53-man roster from the practice squad on Tuesday, according to Zac Jackson of The Athletic. McLaughlin will take the place of running back Dylan Sampson (knee), who was placed on the Injured Reserve with a significant knee injury. With Sampson out for the foreseeable future, Raheim Sanders will now be the RB2 in Cleveland behind starter Quinshon Judkins, with McLaughlin settling in as the RB3 for the Browns as they head into a Week 2 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The 26-year-old McLaughlin should remain firmly on the waiver wire in most single-year fantasy football leagues, but he could become intriguing for RB depth in point-per-reception formats if he works his way into a decent chance-of-pace role behind Judkins. The former undrafted free agent from Youngstown State has 226 career carries for 1,093 yards and three touchdowns while adding 59 receptions for 263 yards and four touchdowns as a receiver in his three NFL seasons with the Denver Broncos.
