10 RB sleepers to target for fantasy football Week 13
2. Jaylen Warren, Pittsburgh Steelers
Jaylen Warren missed the Steelers’ Week 12 game with a hamstring injury. During the game, Najee Harris left the game with an abdomen injury, leaving Benny Snell Jr. as the lead back for the remainder of the game. It’s appearing as if Warren is healthy and ready to go heading into Week 13.
Harris’ injury isn’t as serious as it appeared on Monday night, but his status remains up in the air for this week’s game. Monitor Harris’s status over the weekend, and plug Warren in as a low-end RB1 if Harris is out.
1. Zonovan Knight, New York Jets
The biggest surprise of Week 12 was the benching of James Robinson for rookie Zonovan Knight, who impressed with a 14 -for-69 performance en route to a blowout of the Bears. Michael Carter suffered an ankle injury in the game, leaving Knight as the clear lead back.
Carter is doubtful for Week 13’s game against the Vikings, paving the way for Knight to operate as the clear-cut lead back for New York after impressing the Jets staff. Knight can be safely started, especially in PPR leagues.
