Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown ran for 70 yards and a touchdown off 12 carries in Sunday's loss to the Steelers. He also caught all three targets for 30 yards. The 24-year-old had another quality fantasy performance against a tough Steelers defense. Unfortunately, his efforts weren't enough to lead the Bengals to a much-needed win. With at least one trip to the end zone in seven of his last nine appearances, Brown has a chance to keep it going versus a Cowboys defense that has allowed 14 rushing touchdowns during the 2024-25 campaign, the worst in the National Football League.
Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown has had a Pro Bowl-caliber season. He routinely ceded touches to Zack Moss in the beginning of the year. However, with Moss on the shelf for the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign, Brown is now the undisputed top option out of the backfield. With seven touchdowns in Cincinnati's 11 games this season, the 24-year-old needs to be in all fantasy lineups despite a challenging matchup with a potent Steelers' defense on tap.
Coming out of their Week 12 bye, Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said the team is looking for a way to manage running back Chris Brown's workload in the backfield. "We've gotta find ways to manage it. I think circumstances has led to what he's gotten the last two weeks. I'd like for Chase to touch the ball as much as possible he's got the potential to be explosive on every single play. At the same time, you do need another back in there to help manage that workload. We'll try to get other guys mixed in there to give him a little bit more of a break," Taylor said. Zack Moss (neck) is out for the year, which has led to Brown seeing almost all of the backfield touches in recent weeks as trade acquisition Khalil Herbert learns the offense. Brown has had 20-plus touches in two of the last three games. While he could see more help moving forward, he'll remain a must-start for fantasy managers.
Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown rushed for 86 yards on 22 carries during Sunday's Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. He also caught five of his seven targets for an additional 57 receiving yards. Brown has been tasked with handling a larger workload amidst Zack Moss' season-ending neck injury, and the second-year running back hasn't missed a beat. He now has three consecutive games with at least 19 fantasy points (PPR) and should be deployed as a low-end fantasy RB1 when he's back in action on the other side of the Bengals' Week 12 bye.
Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown has emerged as one of the best fantasy options at the position. He got off to a slow start this season. However, since the Week 4 win over the Carolina Panthers, the 24-year-old has totaled seven touchdowns. He's also coming off a potent Week 10 performance versus the Ravens, finishing the night by amassing a career-high nine receptions. With Tee Higgins (quadriceps) cleared to return on Sunday night versus the Chargers, Brown will likely see fewer looks from Joe Burrow. Still, Brown's potential can't be ignored, especially with Zack Moss (neck) done for the remainder of the 2024-25 campaign.
