Week 10 Running Back Streamers For Fantasy Football: Braelon Allen & More

Welcome to Week 10, and we’re officially past the halfway point to the season. And we’re just six weeks away from the fantasy playoffs beginning. Still so much can happen, but if you’re hovering around that last playoff spot in your league, there’s no letting up. We’re back to four teams on bye weeks, which means you’ll have to sit D'Andre Swift, Bucky Irving and Jonah Coleman this week. So if you’re teetering on the playoffs, we have some work to do.

Let’s get into some streamers. As always with running backs, we’ll mine the fantasy football rankings for players outside the top 24. Make sure to check out our fantasy football projections to get further confirmation why these players are targets. Lastly, all stats versus each position group listed below are from our wonderful DvP tool and any utilization data came from our UR Score.

Running Back Streamers for Week 10

Devin Singletary | Giants vs. Commanders (TNF)

An NFC East battle to kick off the week in primetime, and the early game could signal another big workload for Singletary. The Giants gave him 21 totes against the Eagles, though that resulted in just 31 yards. It’s the volume we’re looking at, because with the short week it’s likely that Cam Skattebo sits out the week again.

The Giants have been rumored to be in the RB market (more on that with the next player), so if they make a splash at the Nov. 10 deadline that will wipe out Singletary as a streaming option. Going against the Eagles, it’s a good matchup. They’re allowing 108.9 rushing yards to RBs (No. 8).

Seth McGowan | Colts vs. Dolphins

This is purely a play if Jonathan Taylor gets traded. McGowan is next man up and could get a sizable workload should JT exit the organization. The Dolphins have fought hard, but running backs have still gotten home to the tune of 23.2 FPG since Week 5. Yes, DJ Giddens could eat into the touch pie a little more than we like, but RB carries are so rare to find at any point in the season.

Braelon Allen | Jets vs. Bills

We got a look at the backfield split between Breece Hall and Allen. The touches were 18-10 in favor of Hall, and the rush attempt share was at 67% to 33%. The fact that it didn’t go more heavily toward Hall is good for Allen.

The Bills are fourth with 24.2 FPG allowed to RBs. A lot of the damage has been through the air, as the Rams’ RB duo of Blake Corum and Kyren Williams combined for 83 receiving yards. While the Bills have yet to allow a 100-yard rusher this season, just getting a player with a chance at 10+ touches in a game where the Jets will have to score points to keep up with a Josh Allen-led offense is a bet worth making.
