Week 14 Running Back Rankings

Fantasy Football Rankings: Top Running Backs for Week 14

9) Derrick Henry vs. Pittsburgh

The Ravens and Todd Monken dropped the ball last week against the Bengals.  Most egregious was the total lack of involvement by King Henry in a game where he was only given the ball 10 times for 60 yards.  When your big back is averaging 6 yards per carry, you might want to give the ball to him a little more.  The easiest way to beat the Steelers has been through the air this year, but Henry needs to be involved early, running the ball to set up the pass for Lamar Jackson later in the game.  That, combined with his goal-line work, makes Henry a top 10 option this week.

10) Kyren Williams vs. Arizona

We don’t love how involved Blake Corum has become, but this matchup is still too good to pass up.  Williams is still the preferred option at the goal line, scoring 5 touchdowns over his last 5 games, and the Rams should have their way with the Cardinals in the desert.  We should have plenty of scoring chances for Williams, as well as a great game script for the L.A. running game.  Williams just barely eclipsed Chase Brown, who plays a soft Bills run defense, and Travis Etienne, who has a nice matchup against the Colts.
