Delusional Injury Update: Latest James Robinson, Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Miles Sanders, Other RB News Affect Week 11 Start Calls
Running back has been a problem for fantasy football owners in Week 11, with the likes of Aaron Jones and Alvin Kamara ruled out and Elijah Mitchell “in doubt.” Heading into Sunday, a couple of IR players, Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Miles Sanders, will play, but “suspicious” RBs James Robinson, Latavius Murray and Jamaal Williams look like contest-time decisions fight. All the time, to begin with, their decision hangs in the balance and fantasy owners will frantically check out the latest trauma updates, which we’ll provide below.

Is James Robinson playing Week 11?
Robinson (knee, heel) limited practice on Thursdays and Fridays, and Jaguars coach Urban Meyer said the sophomore is feeling “pretty good” ahead of Sunday’s game against the 49ers.
It looks like Robinson would be a good fit and if he does, we can assume he’ll handle the majority of Jacksonville flights. It was a below average match, but Robinson did enough as a receiver that he was still a starter in every format. If Robinson is absent, Carlos Hyde will handle nearly all of the Jaguars’ RB touches and deserves a versatile position.
WEEK 11 STANDARD RATINGS:
Midfielder | Run back | Wide receiver | Tight ending | VND / ST | Kicker
Does Miles Sanders play Week 11?
Sanders (ankle) was activated from IR on Saturday afternoon and is fully expected to begin on Sunday with the Saints.
Before his injury, Sanders had had a disappointing season, in part because he averaged just 12.5 touchdowns in six full games. Since his injury, Philadelphia has become an executive-dominated team, so there is hope for an increase in production. Of course, Jordan Howard isn’t thinking about simply walking away, especially around goal, so for now, we’ll consider Sanders the nominal leader of a committee. Against New Orleans’ league-leading defence, he was merely a low-level snapper. Howard gets that distinction in the standard leagues, too.
WEEK 11 PPR ASSESSMENT:
Midfielder | Run back | Wide receiver | Tight ending | VND / ST | Kicker
Is Clyde Edwards-Helaire playing Week 11?
Edwards-Helaire (knee) hasn’t played since Week 5, but after being activated from IR on Saturday afternoon, he’s scheduled to face the Cowboys in Week 11.
CEH was playing well before the injury, dashing for 100 meters and scoring in head-to-head matches. However, Darrel Williams has performed brilliantly in his absence, and with goodbyes set to come in Week 12, it looks like these two will split back yard duties. We give Edwards-Helaire a slight advantage in value, but the two are merely versatile in this slightly advantageous match.

Does Latavius Murray play Week 11?
Murray (ankle) hasn’t competed since Week 6, but after a week of limited practice – and the release of Le’Veon Bell – Murray is trending against the Bears.
However, we don’t know what Murray’s role will be. He had acted as a starter and de facto goalscorer prior to his injury, but in his absence Devonta Freeman led the forward line and played well as both a runner and a runner. take. Chances are, this will be closer to an even split, and whoever gets the scoring line will have more value. We give the Freeman a slight nod this week at least, but both backs can be used as bends in low, mid-ceiling floors.

Does Jamaal Williams play Week 11?
Williams (thigh) has been reported injured most of the season, but after a week of limited practice, he’s catching up on his first game since Week 7.
With an average of nearly 12.5 touchdowns per game, Williams is generally valued for versatility in most games. However, with all the factors heading into this week’s game, including the tough game, the unspecified role and the fact that Tim Boyle is starting in midfield, Williams shouldn’t be considered for fantasy squad. His presence won’t help D’Andre Swift, but being two years old is still a stepping stone in all formats.
