The potential for Peyton Hillis to wear down because of his increased workload has been a hot topic as of late. Do the Browns need to develop a productive backup running back? Mike Bell has compiled 19 carries for 30 yards (1.6 average) since joining the Browns in Week 6 after he was traded from the Philadelphia Eagles.

''I think what you'd like to be able to do is have two or three backs where you could interchange them all the time,'' Mangini said. ''You could play them in all different spots. Mike Bell's done a good job when he's been called on. It's just that Peyton has had such a good season and provides so much to our offense. It's hard to make the case to take him off the field.''

Cowboys "moving away" from RBBC, declaring Rico Dowdle No. 1 RB

Mike McCarthy moving away from running back by committee concept, declaring Rico Dowdle the No. 1 RB. “Rico needs to touch the ball,” he said.

Related Players: Ezekiel Elliott, Deuce Vaughn, Dalvin Cook, Hunter Luepke

Fantasy Impact:

This is great and all, but the Cooper Rush-led offense looked beyond miserable last week, and it's hard to see how it's going to get much better moving forward. Consider Dowdle a high-floor/low-ceiling RB3 in Week 11.

WR Jonathan Mingo set to make Cowboys debut in Week 11

Jonathan Mingo is expected to make his debut for the Cowboys this week, per MM.

Mingo was inactive last week following the trade to allow time for ramping up.

Related Players: Jalen Tolbert, KaVontae Turpin, Jalen Brooks

Fantasy Impact:

We wouldn't expect a ton of action from Mingo fantasy-wise, but it's not as if he has a murderer's row of talent standing between himself and a WR2 role. He can be left on waiver wires in most every format, but might be worth checking to see if he ended up on waiver wires in Dynasty leagues.
