- Quinshon Judkins rushed for 96 yards and two touchdowns on 17 carries against Tennessee in Week 7, adding one eight-yard catch on one target for 23.4 PPR points.
- Quinshon Judkins posted 21.6 PPR against Pittsburgh in Week 4 with 53 rushing yards, a touchdown, six catches for 43 yards and seven targets—his only other double-digit PPR game; the source expects a limited passing role with Dylan Sampson healthy.
- Quinshon Judkins has at least 17 total touches in five straight games, and the source makes him a No. 2 pick against a Steelers defense that has allowed at least 11.2 PPR to an RB in five of seven games, including four total touchdowns.
- J.K. Dobbins is listed against Kansas City with seven projected points, a 31st-place RB ranking, 293 rushing yards, eight catches for 27 yards and three touchdowns.
- Josh Jacobs was eligible to play at Detroit in Week 7 after missing the first six games on the Commissioner's Exempt List; Matt LaFleur said, "we'll work through it."
- Pierre Strong Jr. had 11 carries for 28 yards and five catches for 39 yards on six targets against Dallas; with a 2% CBS Sports roster share, he is the source's flex pivot if Jacobs does not play.
- Detroit ranks eighth in fewest fantasy points allowed to running backs, though Travis Etienne, James Cook and Chuba Hubbard each scored at least 14.8 PPR against the Lions in Weeks 1, 2 and 4, respectively.
Why it matters: For fantasy managers, Judkins combines 23.4 PPR, 17-plus touches in five straight games and a Steelers defense allowing 11.2-plus PPR to an RB in five of seven games, making him the source's No. 2 pick. Strong's 2% CBS roster share is the separate low-owned Green Bay option if Jacobs does not play.
