It’s time for the fantasy football playoffs in most leagues, which magnifies the importance of squeezing every last fantasy point out of your roster with savvy lineup decisions. To help you find success in the coming weeks, all 32 teams will be in action the rest of the season, meaning any bye week nightmares are officially over. As you finalize your lineups for Week 15, check out my top 30 RB rankings to help you get the best options in place to succeed this week.
One huge injury to keep an eye on this week is to Dolphins RB De’Von Achane, who has been near the top of my rankings for the last few weeks. If he’s out or limited, Jaylen Wright would be a clutch pickup from the waiver wire. He may be ready to return or he may miss time, so keep a very close eye on practice reports and status updates this week.
Besides Achane’s injury, the top news from Week 14 at the position was the huge week that came out of nowhere from Tony Pollard (31.1 FPTS) against the Browns. The only running back with a better total was Jahmyr Gibbs (37 FPTS) on Thursday night. Just behind Pollard, Blake Corum (29.1 FPTS), RJ Harvey (22 FPTS) and Travis Etienne Jr. (21.1 FPTS) were the only other running backs to earn 20+ fantasy points.
This week, there are several top running backs in great matchups, who should be set up to bring fantasy football playoff success.
