Fantasy Football with Ian Hartitz on Rico Dowdle

VideoFantasy Football Handcuffs: Where Every Backup RB Would Rank If Every Starter T...August 19, 2026

From the video

RB5 guys, I'm going with Steelers running back Rico Dow... Rico Dout or Jayla Morren, they are the same person to me for the purposes of this study because I just think it's going to be pretty close to 50/50.

Priority handcuff in a projected 50/50 backfield split

Ian Hartitz identifies Rico Dowdle as a priority handcuff/RB5, noting that he and Jaylen Warren are essentially interchangeable for fantasy purposes as they are expected to split the backfield work 50/50, with either having workhorse potential if the other is sidelined. Hartitz notes Dowdle is a capable receiver, having recorded only five fewer PPR points than Warren over the past two seasons.
