5. Rashad Jennings-RB-Oakland Raiders (43.7%)

Jennings had another huge game as the main running back for the Raiders running for 150 yards and a long touchdown of 80 yards. He had a couple catches for -2 yards, but remained involved in the passing game even with Matt McGloin under center.

Jennings has earned a share of the backfield carries if and when Darren McFadden returns. McFadden’s status for next week is up in the air, but Jennings needs to be owned regardless. If he’s the primary back, he’s a RB2 with plenty of upside whether McGloin or Terrelle Pryor start at QB.

This week, the Raiders face the Titans defense which has allowed the sixth most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs, so pick him up on the chance he gets the full workload. If he has to share time, that will obviously hurt his value, but he’s still worth flex consideration.
