Backfield Breakdown: Week 11 Running Back Usage & Week 12 Waivers Preview

This article is part of our Backfield Breakdown series.

Stat Leaderboards

Snap/Carry/Target Shares

Here we're showing each running back's share of his team's snaps, carries and targets, with the third column in each case being the difference between a player's rates for Week 11 and for the season as a whole. Sorting by these 'delta' columns is a quick way to see which backs got more/less work than usual, be it due to injury, game script or a role change (any of which will be discussed in the game-by-game section at the bottom of this article.)

  • The Packers held Henry to 3.1 YPC, but he scored from four yards out in the second quarter, then had a 42-yard reception in the third quarter and a jump-pass TD pass to Austin Hooper shortly thereafter.
  • Henry entered Sunday as the NFL leader in carries, rushing yards and touches, jockeying with Saquon Barkley and Nick Chubb for the rushing title.
  • Hilliard scored his fourth TD of the season on his 16th reception. His five targets in the red zone (three TDs) account for 15.2% of the team total, while he has 9.2% of the overall targets.

2AJ Dillon2846.7%48.1%631.6%41.5%12.7%7.1%3.30
  • Dillon played 48% of snaps, his second-largest share over the past month, but finished with his third fewest carries/touches in a game this season (it was only the third time he's received less than 10 carries).
  • Jones now has played at least 66% of snaps in the past four games he didn't exit early with an injury (he suffered a minor ankle injury Week 9 but came back for the next game and ran for 138 yards).
    • He managed only 60 total yards but had a decent week in PPR leagues with a 6-20-0 receiving line and a two-point conversion.
    • Jones is averaging a career-high 3.6 catches per game, but at a career-low 6.2 yards per catch. 
      • Last year, he caught 3.5 passes per game (nearly as many) and averaged 7.5 yards per reception.

3Raheem Blackshear1220.7%7.7%00.0%5.6%39.7%2.3%3.40
  • Foreman kept his role as the lead runner but played only one-third of snaps after the first quarter and finished with 24 yards on 11 carries.
    • Hubbard finished with no gain on four carries, faring even worse than Foreman.
  • Foreman's rushing lines in four starts: 26-118-3 / 7-23-0 / 31-130-1 /11-24-0
    • With only two catches for a loss of two yards on six targets.
    • He also had a 15-118-0 line (plus 2-27-0 receiving) the week before he became a starter, so even with the two duds he's run for more than 400 yards over a five-week stretch.
  • Foreman played 44% of snaps on first down, 50% on second down and 25% on third down.

  • Drake had a 29-yard run in the fourth quarter but otherwise did next to nothing, after putting up 24-93-2 and a pair of catches in the previous game (on a season-high 68% of snaps).
    • With Gus Edwards (hamstring) missing a second straight game, Drake got another start and played two-thirds of snaps in the first quarter, but he struggled early on and essentially split snaps 50/50 with Hill after that.
  • The three RBs combined for only 12 yards on eight targets.
  • Hill got 50% of third-down snaps to Drake's 31%, with the Ravens also going zero-back three times.

  • J.D. McKissic (neck) was placed on IR on Saturday. He's done for the season.
  • Gibson played a season-high 68% of snaps, hitting the 60% threshold for the first time since Week 1.
    • Three of his five largest snap shares this season have come the past three games with McKissic sidelined.
  • Gibson finished with 18-72-0 rushing and 3-31-0 receiving, while Robinson had 15-57-0 rushing and no targets.
    • This is the first time Gibson has taken more carries than Robinson in a game both played.
  • Gibson played 59% of snaps on first down, 71% on second down and 85% on third down.

3Dare Ogunbowale47.1%3.6%00.0%0.4%13.1%3.1%1.50
  • Pierce finished with only 17 yards on 12 touches in a game where the Texans trailed 20-0 at halftime.
    • Pierce's team rushing share was down, but that's only because Davis Mills took five carries for 10 yards and a TD. No other RB got a carry, and Pierce has 175 of the 200 RB carries this year (87.5%).
  • This was Pierce's first game since Week 2 without 100 total yards and/or a touchdown.
    • He's averaging 17.5 carries for 78 yards (4.5 YPC) and 2.4 catches for 13.5 yards, with four TDs in 10 games.
  • Pierce has played more than 70% of snaps in four straight games and five of the past six.

  • Williams scored three TDs from inside the five, continuing his dominance of Detroit's touchdowns, though Swift later got a couple IT5 carries in the fourth quarter and punched the second one in for a TD.
    • Williams leads the league with 12 rushing TDs. He also leads the NFL in carries inside the 5 (16) and TDs inside the 5 (9). 
      • Before Swift got the two carries in the fourth quarter, Williams had taken 16 of Detroit's 17 carries inside the 5 this year.
  • Swift got eight touches on 31% of snaps, after seven touches on 31% of snaps the week before.
    • Jackson actually got more carries, touches and snaps Sunday, gaining 77 yards on 10 touches. Jackson has 16 touches to Swift's 15 over the past two weeks.

  • The Lions shut down Barkley, who finished with 15 carries for 22 yards and two catches for 13.
  • Breida scored from three yards out early in the fourth quarter, his first TD of the season, though Barkley dominated snaps and touches by the usual margins, more or less.

3Darrell Henderson46.3%53.3%26.7%31.7%00.0%6.4%0.90
  • Henderson technically made his third straight start (and seventh in 10 games) but played only 6% of snaps and took two carries for nine yards.
    • Before Sunday, Henderson had played at least 41 percent of snaps in each of the Rams' games, with five or more looks (carries + targets) every time.
    • All four of Henderson's snaps were on the first drive. He didn't play after that.
  • Akers got 39% of snaps, his most since Week 3, and took 14 carries for a season-high-tying 61 yards (also Week 3).
  • Williams had a 7-36-0 rushing line and one catch for eight yards on two targets, playing 55% of snaps after only 27% the week before.
    • He also did well with his touches the week before, returning from a two-month absence to take one carry for nine yards and three catches for 30 (on three targets).

  • Kamara finished with 12-42-0 and 4-47-0.
    • Better than the past two games but still disappointing.
    • Taysom Hill didn't score a TD but did take nine carries for 52 yards, including the Saints' only carry inside the 10-yard line.
  • In the eight games both Hill and Kamara have played, Kamara has a 109-450-1 rushing line and Hill is at 44-361-4.
    • Kamara has averaged 6.4 targets and scored two receiving TDs, partially making up for Hill stealing so much rushing work. 
  • Johnson (yes, that David Johnson) played more snaps than Washington in his Saints debut, taking one carry for a loss of four and one catch for a gain of 11. (Mark Ingram missed another game with a knee injury.)

3Kenneth Gainwell1116.2%26.0%13.0%9.1%00.0%5.1%00
  • Scott getting more snaps/touches than Gainwell was a reverse from the past two weeks
    • Whatever the breakdown week to week, they'd likely form a timeshare in the absence of Sanders, who continues to get well over half of the non-QB carries each week.
  • The Colts held Sanders to 13-47-0 rushing and one catch for one yard.
    • The reception was his first since Week 6, and he now has back-to-back games with less than 60 total yards and no TD.

  • Taylor dropped from 94% snap share the week before down to a still-lofty 75% with Jackson back in the lineup.
    • JT had an okay fantasy day with 22-84-1 and three catches for 10 yards, but between a lost fumble and the fact he got completely shut down after the first quarter, it wasn't a good game in real life.
    • Taylor took seven carries for 49 yards and a TD on the opening drive. After that, he managed only 35 yards on 15 carries
  • Taylor played 75% of snaps on first down, 76% on second down and 80% on third down.

  • Johnson played 14% of snaps on early downs and 73% on third downs.
  • Carter got 60% of the early down snaps and Robinson took 33%.
    • Neither was effective on a brutal day for the Jets offense. Carter took eight carries for 19 yards and Robinson had seven for 10 yards.
  • Robinson is averaging 8.3 carries for 25 yards in three games with the Jets, playing 22%, 40% and 22% of snaps.
  • Even with Robinson quiet, Carter hasn't done a whole lot in three games since the Breece Hall injury, averaging 9.0 carries for 40.3 yards and 2.0 catches for 14.3 yards on 3.3 targets. Carter at least is still startable as an RB2 given the decent workload and three straight games in the range of 50-56% snap share (albeit with a slight drop each passing week).

2Damien Harris1523.8%32.5%830.8%34.6%27.4%7.1%11.30
  • Harris returned after missing the previous game with an illness and did well with his touches, taking eight carries for 65 yards and two catches for 28 yards.
    • The Patriots offense struggled otherwise, including Stevenson's 15-26-0 rushing line, which he made up for with 6-56-0 receiving.
    • Harris played only 24% of snaps and finished with just 10 looks to Stevenson's 21.
  • The 78% snap share was Stevenson's third largest this season, and his largest in any game with Harris healthy. Of course, Harris had the much better rushing day, with his long gain (30) accounting for more yards than Stevenson totaled on 15 carries.

    • Patterson finished with 10-52-0 and 2-7-0, while Allgeier had 8-55-0 and 1-9-0.
  • In three games since Patterson returned from IR, he's taken 28 carries for 114 yards and two TDs (plus four targets), while Allgeier has taken 26 for 174 yards and no TDs (plus five targets).
    • Huntley and Avery Williams have added 17 carries for 95 yards, but they weren't as much of factors in this one

  • The usual splits, in a game where the Browns fell behind and couldn't run much after halftime. 
    • Chubb was stuffed to the tune of 19 yards on 14 carries, though he did catch three passes for 48 yards.
    • Hunt took five carries for 32 yards and two catches for 22 yards... efficient work, but also Hunt's fourth time in the past five games with seven or fewer touches (one TD in that stretch).

    • Singletary had season highs for carries (18) and rushing yards (86), scoring his third rushing TD in the past two weeks (also his third of the season).
  • Cook got more than six touches for the first time since a Week 2 blowout. And his work wasn't all with the Bills up big; he had a touch in every quarter en route to 11-86-0 (though he finished without a catch on two targets).
    • Hines, meanwhile, was essentially just the No. 3 back again. The Bills haven't found a real role for him yet.

    • He's averaging 12.6 carries for 41.8 yards in five games for Denver, with three rushing TDs plus 2.2 catches for 11.2 yards.
  • Gordon has started each of Murray's five games with the team but averaged only 7.6 carries for 25 yards, with one TD plus 2.8 catches for 25 yards.
    • The Edmonds injury gives Gordon a better chance to have fantasy value, but Murray is the favorite for lead rusher duties.

    • Harris did have a third-down drop in this one, so it's not all good news.
