Fantasy football managers weigh starting options for ailing running backs

Fantasy football managers are evaluating their rosters ahead of Week 1 games due to uncertainty surrounding the health of several running backs. Ashton Jeanty and Jeremiyah Love are among the players currently listed with injury concerns. The running back position remains limited regarding three-down starters, forcing managers to rely on players who can contribute both in the rushing and passing game. Analysts are currently compiling rankings to help determine which players are viable starters or streamers. These decisions are crucial as owners look to secure points from players who can handle significant touches. Managers must continue to monitor injury reports throughout the week to adjust their lineups before kickoff.
