In fantasy football, running backs are becoming increasingly vital as elite options dwindle. Recent performances highlight key players across several teams as we approach the playoffs.
The San Francisco 49ers' Isaac Guerendo shone before an injury, while Patrick Taylor Jr. steps up as a potential waiver wire gem. The Las Vegas Raiders' Sincere McCormick has emerged as a surprising standout, taking advantage of injuries to his teammates.
The Kansas City Chiefs continue their running back by committee approach, with Isiah Pacheco leading the way, though inconsistency remains a concern. Meanwhile, Seattle Seahawks' Zach Charbonnet thrives when Kenneth Walker III is absent, showcasing his potential as a top fantasy option.
Finally, the New York Jets face uncertainty with Breece Hall's status, leaving rookie Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis to share duties if Hall is sidelined.
