In need of a Running Back for Week 13? Here is a list of running back streaming options to help you make the Fantasy Football Playoffs!
-FFB HUB Staff
Team on Bye: Buccaneers and Panthers
Devontae Booker – Raiders at Jets 1:00 P.M. Sunday
Available in 35% of Yahoo Leagues and 40% of ESPN Leagues
With Josh Jacobs out with an injury, Booker is the next man up for the Raiders. In his last four games he has had 34 carries for 171 yards and three touchdowns. Booker should be the primary back on Sunday, and the game script should be in the Raiders favor. Booker will get his chance to shine against the Jets, as long as the Week 12 Raiders don’t show up.
Frank Gore – Jets vs. Raiders 1:00 P.M. EST
Available in 60% of Yahoo Leagues and 68% of ESPN Leagues
What do Ronnie Brown, Cadillac Williams, Maurice Clarett and Frank Gore have in common? They were all running backs drafted in the 2005 NFL draft. It is hard to believe that Gore’s name is still mentioned in 2020 as a potential fantasy option, but here we are. Gore has the backfield to himself for the Jets, and in his past two games he has had 33 carries for 135 yards and a touchdown. He is a touchdown dependent back in order to have significant fantasy relevancy, but the volume has been there for him. If you have a RB on bye this week, Gore is a good streaming option. He is also a good stash for the fantasy playoffs and is the #26 RB over the past four weeks.
Adrian Peterson – Lions at Bears 1:00 P.M. EST Sunday
Available in 52% of Yahoo Leagues and 64% of ESPN Leagues
Another long time NFL Veteran on the list this week. Peterson is a volume play due to Swift potentially missing Week 13. With Swift out in Week 12, Peterson had 15 carries for 55 yards and two touchdowns. While the two rushing touchdowns bolstered his stats, the 15 carries was a promising work load for the veteran back. If Swift is out again, Peterson should see a decent amount of carries again this week.
James White – Patriots at Chargers 4:25 P.M. EST Sunday
Available in 32% of Yahoo Leagues and 34% of ESPN Leagues
White only had 5 carries in Week 12, but turned that into 18 yards and two touchdowns. While the volume is disappointing, White should see more action as the season progresses. His bread and butter is in the passing game, and he now has the backfield to himself in the passing game with Burkhead out. The game script will be in his favor more times than not as the 2020 Patriots will be coming from behind in most games. He is a solid PPR option and a good playoffs stash.
