Bengals want to manage RB Chase Brown's workload

Around the Jungle on X

Nov 26 · 9:48 AM EST

Head coach Zac Taylor said they want to find ways to manage running back Chase Brown's workload.

Related players: Khalil Herbert, Trayveon Williams, Kendall Milton

Fantasy Impact:

Taylor said they want Brown to touch the ball as much as possible, but added the Bengals need another back to get work as well. Coming off the bye week, that back should likely be Herbert, who the Bengals got in a trade from the Bears before the deadline. When we last saw the Bengals in Week 11, in a loss to the Chargers, Brown ran 22 times for 86 yards and added five catches for 57 yards. Herbert didn't have a touch in the game and played on about 5% of the snaps.

RB Khalil Herbert to make Bengals debut on TNF

Khalil Herbert will make his Bengals debut on Thursday night against the Ravens, league sources confirmed.

How big of a role could Herbert play? He'll be a compliment to Chase Brown on offense. He could see a few carries and also has experience as a kick returner. Look for him to have a role on special teams too.

Related Players: Trayveon Williams

Fantasy Impact:

So it sounds like Herbert will work in as a short-yardage back, leaving a majority of the workload to Brown in Game 1. Herbert doesn't need to be started in Week 10 but odds are good that he'll be in fantasy consideration moving forward. Brown should be locked into lineups in this divisional rivalry.

Bengals place RB Zack Moss on IR with neck injury

Pro Football Talk

Nov 05 · 3:34 PM EST

Tight end Erick All and running back Zack Moss have been placed on injured reserve. All will miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL and Moss is expected to miss extended time with a neck injury.

Related players: Chase Brown, Khalil Herbert, Trayveon Williams

Fantasy Impact:

With Moss out, the Bengals made a move for Herbert who should take over as the team's RB2 behind Brown and give the team some depth with Williams.

Bears trade RB Khalil Herbert to Bengals

Pro Football Talk

Nov 05 · 9:32 AM EST

Running back Khalil Herbert is on to Cincinnati.

Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that the Bengals have agreed to a trade with the Bears that will add Herbert to their backfield for the rest of the season. A 2025 seventh-round pick will go back to the Bears as compensation.

Fantasy Impact:

Moss is dealing with a neck injury and there is no timetable for his return, we reported on Monday. So the Bengals needed help at the position. Herbert should slide in as the team's RB2 behind Brown, who is the clear RB1. Meanwhile in Chicago, Johnson becomes an interesting fantasy addition as the team's clear RB2 behind Swift. Swift started slow this season, but has come on as of late, however, Johnson could see his value climb and is probably worth adding off the wire if you have the room.
