Fantasy Football Player Notes
2024 PPR Draft Rankings
32.
Jerome Ford
(at BAL)
Jerome Ford will be the Brown's starting tailback to begin this season. Nick Chubb's health remains up in the air and he is starting the year on the PUP. Last season, in Weeks 3-17, when Ford was the starter, he averaged 14.9 touches and 66.6 total yards as the RB20 in fantasy. Ford played well, ranking 13th in missed tackles forced per attempt and 16th in yards after contact per attempt (per Fantasy Points Data). Ford begins the year as a strong RB2. After Chubb's return, Ford will retain a role in this backfield that could resemble Kareem Hunt's previous usage for Cleveland. Ford is a fantasy selection that makes sense for every roster build. He will be one of my most-rostered players this year.

Nick Chubb
(at BAL)
Chubb's 2023 season was cut short in Week 2 due to a gruesome injury. I don't want to say the deck is stacked against Chubb to be a meaningful contributor in 2024, but it won't be a cakewalk. Chubb will be entering his age-29 season, and while (with the pay cut) he'll be staying with the Browns, it's tough to count on him as anything more than a dart throw RB3 for 2024 as he begins the season on the PUP.
