Fantasy Football Running Back Handcuff Rankings for Week 8
The latest fantasy football handcuff rankings emphasize the importance of securing backup running backs ahead of potential injuries as Week 8 approaches. The analysis focuses on players who have the best chance of increased workloads based on recent performances and team dynamics.
Leading the rankings is Johnson from Kansas City, who remains a top choice if Kenneth Walker is sidelined. Corum from the Rams also stands out after a strong performance, rushing for 93 yards and a touchdown. Meanwhile, Black's role may expand for the 49ers following Christian McCaffrey's thigh injury, although San Francisco has a bye week.
Other notable mentions include Jones from the Vikings, who is set for an MRI after aggravating a knee injury, and Perine, who scored a touchdown despite being outperformed by Chase Brown. The rankings also consider players like Knight and Rodriguez, who have shown potential but face competition for touches. Overall, the rankings provide insights into which players to target on the waiver wire as the season progresses.
