The Top RBs To Start in Week 14
Zack Moss, Indianapolis Colts (at CIN)
Analysis by Derek Tate | Zack Moss averaged 24 touches per game from Weeks 2 to 4 when starting RB Jonathan Taylor was unavailable due to an ankle injury. Well, with Taylor once again out of the lineup, Moss once again saw over 20 total touches to lead Indy’s backfield.

Unfortunately, his 21 total touches against a formidable Tennessee Titans front seven only produced 57 yards with no scores, but the volume is an encouraging sign moving forward. Moss’ upcoming matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals should see him get back on track. He’s a top-12 play at the RB position in Week 14.
Alexander Mattison, Minnesota Vikings (at LV)
Analysis by Jason Katz | Hopefully, the bye week did the Minnesota Vikings well. It has been quite some time since Alexander Mattison was a worthwhile fantasy starter. Outside of Week 9, Mattison’s last game before the bye was his best fantasy outing since Week 6. He scored 8.3 fantasy points. Yeah, it’s been bad.
There were concerns in the two games preceding the bye that RB Ty Chandler was going to earn a larger role. Those did not come to fruition — Mattison remains the clear RB1.
Now, he finds himself in a great spot against a Las Vegas Raiders defense allowing the sixth-most points per game to running backs. They are surrendering 4.4 yards per carry and 105 rushing yards per game.
Regardless of who the Vikings start at quarterback this week, Mattison should be a safe bet for around 15 touches. WR Justin Jefferson’s return will only help open things up for the ground game.
