Jonathan Dwyer RB1 on Steelers depth chart

Nov 27, 2012

Steelers RB Jonathan Dwyer to start at RB Sunday for Steelers? New depth chart lists him as No. 1. All three RBs are healthy. Rashard Mendenhall listed behind Isaac Redman.

Fantasy Impact:

The Steelers should have run all over the Browns last week. But, Mendy fumbled twice and got benched leaving Dwyer their top option. It may be hard to trust this depth chart once the game starts because all three backs are healthy, but it seems like Dwyer will at least get a chance in a pretty good matchup with the Ravens, who at times struggle to stop the run. If QB Ben Roethlisberger doesn't play, the Ravens would likely play to stop the run and force the Steelers to throw with Charlie Batch at QB. Dwyer will be an OK option, perhaps as a low-end RB2 or flex, but if you can avoid the situation, that may be the best option...

“I will be playing on Sunday. Very excited, can’t pass up playing the Packers. I will be out there for sure.”

George Kittle says he’s good to go for Sunday

Related Players: Eric Saubert

Fantasy Impact:

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
