Nathan Jahnke's fantasy football roundup highlights the usage and statistics of key players, providing the essential insights needed for fantasy success in 2024. This analysis focuses exclusively on players relevant to fantasy football leagues.

Here are Nathan’s 10 biggest reactions to Sunday’s games. For a more detailed analysis, be sure to read his full summary from Sunday.

The Browns returned to a three-person committee: D'Onta Foreman was much more involved in the Browns offense this week.

In week 1 Jerome Ford was the clear running back, playing 57 of a possible 76 offensive snaps. This was a career high in both total snaps and offensive snap percentage. This made it seem like Ford was a sure bet to start in fantasy leagues.

Instead, this week began as a three-man committee. Foreman played just one snap in the first game, but started this game with seven snaps on the first drive. In the first half, Ford played 14 of 36 possible snaps, while Foreman played 12 and Pierre Strong, Jr. nine played.

Strong suffered a hamstring injury early in the second half, which put the game back into a two-man committee. Foreman ended up with twice as many runs as Ford and was on the field for goal-line snaps. Foreman is worth a waiver-wire signing, but it will be hard to trust either running back going forward. Foreman could prove to be the better option of the two if he can convert some goal-line actions into touchdowns.

Deuce Vaughn makes the rotation of the running back more difficult: Vaughn played 10 offensive snaps and ran the ball four times, making this only the third game of his career in which he made a notable contribution.
