Thomas Rawls Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections
RB Thomas Rawls has signed with the Jaguars
Former Seahawk Thomas Rawls has signed with the Jaguars. He should add depth at the very least. However with Leonard Fournette seemingly on the verge of being moved, perhaps Rawls is a deep sleeper in next years best ball drafts.
Bengals release RB Thomas Rawls
The Bengals have released RB Thomas Rawls, who had up until this point had no impact on the offense. Joe Mixon is still the lead dog in this Bengals backfield, with Mark Walton serving as the change of pace back until Gio Bernard has recovered from his knee injury.
Bengals RB Thomas Rawls a healthy scratch Sunday, team left with 2 active RBs
With Rawls a healthy scratch Sunday, the Bengals are left with only 2 active RBs on their roster for their matchup against the Panthers. Look for Gio Bernard to get a heavy workload as both rusher and pass catcher, making him an excellent play today - especially in PPR settings.
The Bengals announced they signed former Seahawks RB Thomas Rawls
Joe Mixon is out for several weeks. Giovani Bernard will take over the top Running Back spot for the Bengals. Rawls is just injury insurance for his new team.
Mike Davis isn't expected to play Week 12; RG Oday Aboushi ruled out
Despite leaving early in the third quarter, Davis led the backfield with 59 yards against the Falcons Monday night. With Davis down, J.D. McKissic, who's typically been limited to a pass-catching role, was the primary back and finished with 12 touches while Eddie Lacy saw three. Thomas Rawls is expected to return to the running back rotation with Davis sidelined but it could be McKissic's backfield against the 49ers on Sunday. While Seattle's running back group has been completely miserable this season, they couldn't have a much better spot and it appears as though McKissic could see a workload big enough to exploit the spot. The 49ers are giving up the most PPR points per game to RBs while allowing the most receiving yards and second-most receiving touchdowns to the position. At just $3.7k on DraftKings, McKissic looks like a solid value; it's definitely a situation worth monitoring this week.
Thomas Rawls a healthy scratch for MNF; Lacy, McKissic and Davis will be active
Rawls is a healthy scratch for the second time in his career. That'll leave the backfield work to Eddie Lacy, J.D. McKissic and Mike Davis, with Lacy expected to lead the charge on non-passing downs and McKissic likely to work in on third-down and as a change-of-pace to Lacy. The Seahawks have had loads of trouble running the ball this season, but Rawls' inactive status does make both Lacy and McKissic interesting targets on the prime-time slate. Russell Wilson and the passing attack is still where most of the Seattle production is going to come from.
Eddie Lacy and S Earl Thomas expected to play Week 11
Lacy will make his return following a one-game absence with a groin injury. It's not yet clear if he'll be the starter again as he was in Week 9 but Thomas Rawls didn't do anything last week to warrant a switch. They'll take on a Falcons rush defense currently 18th in adjusted line yards and third in rushing touchdowns allowed to RBs (0.33/g). Even if Lacy gets the start, he'll like lose some early-down work to Rawls and J.D. McKissic will pick up work in passing situations. On the season, Lacy is averaging 2.7 yards per carry. Even if he was getting a full workload, he wouldn't be a reliable fantasy option. It's probably best to continue avoiding this backfield. Thomas' return is huge for the Seahawks. He's PFF's seventh-ranked cover safety and will provide an upgrade for their banged-up secondary. CB Richard Sherman is down for the year and S Kam Chancellor is in real danger of missing some time as he tends to a stinger. Matt Ryan hasn't had any huge games but he's been consistent. The QB is sixth in the league with 7.93 yards per attempt, fifth in completion percentage (66.6%), and he's tossed multiple touchdowns in three straight games. Seattle has held quarterbacks to the eighth-fewest fantasy points per game this season but with their injuries could hinder their production. If Chancellor is out, it would make things much easier for Austin Hooper, who's been a very reliable weapon for Ryan. He's caught 76% of his passes and returned an impressive 9.3 yards per target. He's second on the team with nine red zone looks and five chances inside the ten-yard line. At $3.4k on DK, Hooper would become a pretty appealing option if Chancellor can't go - he's already our TE3 in points-per-dollar projections on the site.
C.J. Prosise placed on IR
Prosise has been battling an ankle injury nearly the entire season and wasn't able to finish either game he's played in since originally going down in Week 3. Seattle will roll with Thomas Rawls and Eddie Lacy on early downs and utilize J.D. McKissic in the passing game, as they have been. Lacy was inactive last week he could remain sidelined against the Falcons on Monday night. If he's out, it would leave Rawls with a pretty significant workload but he's averaging an abysmal 2.6 yards per carry this season and hasn't picked up more than 39 rushing yards in any game. Atlanta has an exploitable rush defense currently ranked 21st in adjusted line yards but they've given up the third-fewest rushing scores. They're particularly vulnerable to pass-catching backs; in addition to allowing the fourth-most receiving TDs to RBs, they've permitted the second-most receptions to the position. Rawls hauled in two receptions in each of the past two games but as mentioned, he'll likely lose a good chunk of that work to McKissic, limiting his upside.
Eddie Lacy officially ruled out for Week 10, S Earl Thomas doubtful, DT Sheldon Richardson will play
Offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell said Thomas Rawls will be their "guy" against the Cardinals Thursday night with Eddie Lacy sidelined. Rawls took over the early-down role last weekend after Lacy got hurt and posted a season-high 39 yards on 4.3 yards per carry while adding two receptions for 31 yards. Seattle will get C.J. Prosise back after essentially missing five straight games. He's expected to be the primary passing-down back, although he could lose a some of those snaps to J.D. McKissic. The group has a tough matchup this week; Arizona ranks seventh in yards per carry (3.7) and they're holding RBs to the 11th-fewest PPR points this season. On Sunday, they limited Carlos Hyde to 41 rushing yards on 12 carries but allowed him to haul in nine catches for 84. With Prosise back, Rawls won't receive many opportunities to exploit any weaknesses in coverage. Seattle's pass defense allowed 247 scoreless passing yards without Thomas against the Redskins and quarterback Kirk Cousins was 2-for-5 on passes 20+ yards downfield. They have a friendly matchup with Drew Stanton on Thursday, who only completed 50% of his passes for 201 yards, two scores, and a pick against a weak 49ers pass defense. Richardson has been more productive in pass-rush than run defense this season, accumulating the 24th-most pressures among interior defenders. His presence should help Seahawks apply pressure on Stanton, who'll be playing behind the second-worst offensive line in football by PFF's pass-blocking efficiency metric.
