LV RB Ameer Abdullah - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs Denver Broncos

Ameer Abdullah comes in on the fringe of fantasy relevance this week. As RB37, we'd hope you have better options on your roster.

He only managed 38 yards on nine opportunities in their game against Pittsburgh last week and has just 23 total opportunities on the year.

LV RB Ameer Abdullah - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs Pittsburgh Steelers

Ameer Abdullah has factored into the mix with Zamir White missing time. He's our RB41 this week so he's not exactly top of mind. But, if you're struggling with injuries and bye weeks, he's possibly worth a Hail Mary.

LV RB Ameer Abdullah - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. Los Angeles Chargers

Ameer Abdullah plays a supplemental role in this offense, but he could see an uptick in usage with Josh Jacobs expected to miss time with a knee injury. The Chargers rank 20th in aFPA to opposing running backs, so it’s a nice matchup for the veteran complementary back. Still, this offense hasn’t looked great at all this year, and Zamir White is likely to get the bulk of the rushing carries, so look elsewhere.

LV RB Ameer Abdullah - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 at Los Angeles Rams

Ameer Abdullah was limited to just four yards on one carry and one target last week against the Chargers. He has potential as a pass-catcher in this offense, but his touches have been so sporadic it’s hard to bank on him for production. Sit him.

LV RB Ameer Abdullah - Week 13 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 13 vs. Los Angeles Chargers

Ameer Abdullah had three carries and three receptions for a total of 55 yards and a touchdown last week against the Seahawks. It was by far his best game of the season, and he showed he can have some fantasy value if he gets touches. He has upside in a nice matchup against the Chargers’ 31st ranked defense in aFPA to opposing running backs. However, even the six touches he had last week - which was a season-high for him - aren’t enough to make him worth starting in most leagues. Leave him on waivers.

LV RB Ameer Abdullah - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Denver Broncos

Ameer Abdullah is coming off a game with four receptions, but he has only 12 all year for 99 total receiving yards. It’s worth watching to see if Abdullah’s role grows down the stretch, but for now, he should remain on waivers in all but the deepest of PPR formats.

LV RB Ameer Abdullah - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 at Los Angeles Chargers

Ameer Abdullah actually had some low-end PPR value with the Panthers last year, racking up 49 targets in 11 games after coming over from the Vikings. He’s likely to be the primary kick returner in Las Vegas, but may also get some snaps on passing downs as well. With Josh McDaniels in charge, there could be a “James White” role open for him, and Abdullah has the skill set to play that function.

Abdullah will start the season against the Chargers, who ranked 28th in aFPA to opposing running backs last year. With a potential shootout ahead of them, it’s possible an increase in passing downs helps Abdullah see more snaps – and potentially more targets – but it’s too risky to bank on, especially this early in the season. Take a wait-and-see approach with Abdullah, unless you’re in a return yardage league.
