Week 11 vs. Cincinnati Bengals
Kenyan Drake had four carries and two receptions for 31 yards. It’s not really surprising to see Drake ebb and flow with an offense and team that has been riddled with off-field issues and on-field inconsistencies all year. Drake can produce occasionally, but it’s been hard to trust when.
This week, Drake faces a Bengals defense that ranks 26th in aFPA to opposing running backs. He’s a risky option, but if you’re in a deeper league or can use three running backs, he might be worth a gamble – especially in PPR formats. I expect this game to be more competitive and for Drake to find a little more room. We have him ranked just inside our top-30 running backs this week, and fantasy managers should approach him with caution.
