Titans Beat: Bishop Sankey has been the team's 'most impressive' running back

Aug 07, 2015

Jim Wyatt of the Titans:

Bishop Sankey has been the team’s most impressive running back so far in training camp, and I thought he had a really good day on Thursday. Sankey busted through the line on several nice runs, and into the secondary. Sankey, a second round pick last season, has put on roughly 6-7 pound since last year, and the extra weight should make him a stronger and more durable runner this fall. He’s shown better instincts in camp this summer as well.

Fantasy Impact:

Sankey qualifies as a post-hype sleeper. This is his first full offseason and while his rookie year was a disappointment, he showed flashes of what convinced the Titans to make him the first running back off the board in last year's draft. Given his 8th/9th round ADP, he's a good target for the "wait on RB" crowd.

49ers RB Isaac Guerendo "plans to play" TNF

San Francisco 49ers running back Isaac Guerendo plans to play Thursday night against the Los Angeles Rams despite his sprained foot, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Guerendo, who is listed as questionable, insists he "feels good," sources said.

Fantasy Impact:

We're projecting Patrick Taylor as the next man up in the 49ers' version of running back roulette *if* Guerendo is forced out, as he easily has the most familiarity with the team. Abanikanda can be stashed if that's not the case, but shouldn't be in starting consideration if Guerendo does indeed miss Week 15.

Otherwise, consider the fourth-round rookie a fantasy RB2.

— The 49ers ruled out LT Trent Williams (ankle) and S Malik Mustapha (chest), but RB Isaac Guerendo (foot) is questionable. So is Dre Greenlaw, who was full today.
— The Rams ruled out TE Tyler Higbee (knee) and Cobie Durant (chest).

Rams are listing WR Demarcus Robinson (shoulder), WR Jordan Whittington (shoulder), and TE Davis Allen (shoulder) as questionable for Thursday night’s game versus the 49ers.

Related Players: Puka Nacua, Cooper Kupp, Tutu Atwell, Tyler Johnson

Fantasy Impact:

This doesn't really impact Nacua or Kupp either way, but Atwell could log a little extra work here. Consider him a very deep league WR5.
