Gage LarvadainNegativeSep 15, 2026Dawgs By Nature

Seth McGowanPositiveSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

Samaje PerinePositiveSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

Perine is rostered in only 4% of Yahoo and 11.9% of ESPN leagues, making him one of the best under-rostered handcuffs to stash on your bench.

Braelon AllenPositiveSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

Allen is rostered in only 15% of Yahoo and 12.4% of ESPN leagues, making him one of the best under-rostered handcuffs to stash on your bench.

Ray DavisPositiveSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

Tank BigsbyPositiveSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

Bigsby was squeezed into the top 48 rankings under the idea that he could flirt with double-digit touches in garbage time against the lowly Titans; he is rostered in only 34% of Yahoo and 18.7% of ESPN leagues, making him an under-rostered handcuff.

Tyjae SpearsNegativeSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

Spears played the same number of snaps as Tony Pollard in Week 1, but both are part of the worst offense in football, making Spears an unattractive fantasy option.

Tyler AllgeierNegativeSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

Allgeier appears destined to be relegated to a true backup role by Jeremiyah Love; he should not be expected to produce much against the Seahawks' loaded defense.

Rachaad WhiteNegativeSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

White is more of a pure handcuff than someone to actively start, similar to Kenny Gainwell and Woody Marks.

Kenneth GainwellNegativeSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

Gainwell was more of a clear backup than 1B option behind Bucky Irving in terms of opportunities (15 vs. 6); he is more of a pure handcuff than a flex play for the time being.

Chris RodriguezNegativeSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

Rodriguez saw even snaps (48% vs. 41%) and routes (32% vs. 32%) with Bhayshul Tuten but only six total rush attempts in a game with heavy positive game script for Jacksonville, limiting his fantasy upside.

Tony PollardNegativeSep 15, 2026RotoWire NFL Articles

Pollard ranked RB40 as the 1A back in the league's worst offense, now forced to face one of the feistiest defensive lines in football; Very Fantasy-friendly intentionally ranked him as low as possible while still including him, suggesting he is not a recommended fantasy play.
