Bell Cow Updates: RB Touch Leaders and Largest Projected Workloads for Week 10

Before we get to the ground and pound, guys, let's fly high with an offense that's been WHITE HOT these last few weeks!

Joe Burrow is playing at an MVP level, and the Cincinnati Bengals' offense? It's become a fantasy manager's DREAM!

With two top-six fantasy wide receivers catching passes, Burrow is making an early case for MVP.

Points are flying, defenses are scrambling and fantasy football managers' FAMILIES are being fed by this offense.

If only we could get the running game going!

Because Chase Brown? He's been leaving fantasy managers HUNGRY for most of the season.

But don't lose hope just yet. Colder days are coming, and perhaps BRIGHTER ones for Brown as they need the run game to get through winter.

That starts with Cincinnati making the ground game a PRIORITY.

Aight, enough flying high. Let's get back to the GROUND AND POUND!

RB Touch Leaders and Largest Projected Workloads for Week 10

Breece Hall | RB | NYJ

Dealing with injuries SUCKS! Especially for fantasy managers wondering whether their player will suffer a setback or get eased back into action.

That wasn't the case for Breece Hall. Returning from a five-week absence, Hall wasted no time, logging 18 touches in Week 9.

But here's what REALLY caught my attention.

Hall played just 43% of the snaps!

EIGHTEEN touches? Somebody made getting him the football a PRIORITY. Imagine what happens when that snap share climbs past 50%.

After a tough matchup against the Chiefs, Buffalo is rolling out the welcome mat.

The Bills surrender 28 touches per game to opposing running backs, along with a touchdown per contest.

More snaps, more opportunities, and a favorable matchup?

Hall is a solid FLEX option in Week 10. We do have some heavy hitters on bye; RB2 territory isn't out of reach.

Thanksgiving is still a few weeks away, but Hall might be getting ready to FEAST early!

Zach Charbonnet | RB | SEA

Game TWO of Zach Charbonnet's return from injury, and wait... WHAT?!

SEVENTEEN touches?! Medical science is something else. These world-class athletes are returning to action faster than ever.

It certainly helped that Jadarian Price, while effective in the passing game, couldn't get much going on the ground.

But here's where things get INTERESTING.

Drew Lock is managing an oblique injury. And considering he hasn't attempted more than 30 passes in a game this season, why wouldn't they lean even HEAVIER on the running game?

Especially against the RAIDERS.

Las Vegas is surrendering a league-high 19.2 rushing fantasy points per game and an ugly 5.22 yards per carry.

Charbonnet's workload is already climbing, and the matchup is practically BEGGING for another heavy dose.

With Lock banged up, another heavy workload could be coming.

Fantasy managers, Charbonnet might be going from the injury report to the DINNER TABLE in a hurry!

Kaleb Johnson | RB | GN

Here we are. A section about Kaleb Johnson, and for ONCE, we're not bashing him for this play.

Anyways, his time might FINALLY be here.

Josh Jacobs is expected to miss time with a finger injury, opening the door for Johnson. And the other backs? JAGs (just a guy)!

But here's where things get INTERESTING.

Johnson gets to play in an offense whose quarterback leads the league with 799 passing yards on throws of 20-plus yards and ranks second in pass attempts.

That's an offense moving the football.

And the BONUS? Red-zone opportunities.

Through nine games, Green Bay is averaging SIX red-zone trips per game. That's plenty of chances for Johnson to find PAYDIRT.

Will Johnson become a true bell cow? Let's not get carried away.

But opportunity is knocking, and with Jacobs sidelined, somebody has to answer the door.

Fantasy managers, check that waiver wire before somebody else beats you to it!
