2024 NFL Fantasy Football Rankings — Start, Sit RB Week 6

NFL DraftKings Network

By: Zach Thompson

While there were several strong performances from top names at running back in Week 5, it was Tank Bigsby of the Jaguars who set the pace with more than eight fantasy points more than any other running back. Bigsby wasn’t in my rankings last week, but he makes his debut this week after his breakout performance.

Saquon Barkley is back from his bye week and back in my top spot while the Vikings, Chiefs, Rams and Dolphins get their bye week in Week 6.

With injuries and timeshares continuing to shift from week to week, let’s take a look at my top 25 RBs for Week 6:

  1. Saquon Barkley (vs. CLE)
  2. Derrick Henry (vs. WAS)
  3. Bijan Robinson (at CAR)
  4. Jahmyr Gibbs (at DAL)
  5. Alvin Kamara (vs. TB)
  6. Jordan Mason (at SEA)
  7. Kenneth Walker Jr. (vs. SF)
  8. Josh Jacobs (vs. ARI)
  9. Breece Hall (vs. BUF)
  10. James Conner (at GB)
  11. Brian Robinson (at BAL)
  12. Jonathan Taylor (at TEN) if ready to return
  13. David Montgomery (at DAL)
  14. Joe Mixon (at NE) if ready to return
  15. Chuba Hubbard (vs. ATL)
  16. James Cook (at NYJ)
  17. Rhamondre Stevenson (vs. HOU)
  18. Tony Pollard (vs. IND)
  19. J.K. Dobbins (at DEN)
