Christian McCaffrey (52 last week) 91
The Stanford product was used sparingly in the loss to the Patriots last week, but should see increased usage against the Cardinals. His hamstring injury is fully healed and he’s ready for a full workload.
Ezekiel Elliot (94 last week) 88
The Cowboys star rusher missed the third quarter of last week’s game after aggravating a right knee injury he has played through since Week 5. We expect him to continue playing through the injury.
Jonathan Taylor (95 last week) 90
The former Wisconsin rusher had a monster game against the Jets, but did take a shot to his right knee. We still expect Taylor to produce against the Jaguars, but look for backup Nyheim Hines to get increased touches.
James Robinson (82 last week) 86
Robinson has missed the last two weeks with a heel injury. He should return this week and produce semi-effectively, although he will likely split time with Carlos Hyde.
Cleveland Running Back Room (89 last week) 12
Nick Chubb and Demetric Felton are on the COVID reserve list, while Kareem Hunt remains on IR with a calf strain. D’Ernest Johnson will get the start and had 22 rushes for 146 yards and a touchdown against the Broncos Week 7.
Chase Edmonds/James Conner (90 last week) 88
Edmonds will miss the game, giving Conner the start. Conner had 21 rushes for 96 yards and two touchdowns against the 49ers last week.
