2026 Fantasy Football Rankings - Running Backs
Last Updated: July 30
Top 10 | 11-20 | 21-40 | 41-75 |
Other Positions: QB | RB | WR | TE
Cam Skattebo, RB, Giants. Bye: 8.
Cam Skattebo was terrific when healthy last year, but he broke his ankle. He played in only eight games.
Projected 2026 Fantasy Stats: 1,040 rushing yards. 58 catches. 480 receiving yards. 12 total TDs.Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 224.
Christian McCaffrey, RB, 49ers. Bye: 8.
Christian McCaffrey is now 30, so he could hit a big regression soon, especially after his 311 carries from last year.
Projected 2026 Fantasy Stats: 910 rushing yards. 71 catches. 600 receiving yards. 12 total TDs.Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 223.
Javonte Williams, RB, Cowboys. Bye: 14.
Javonte Williams was a huge surprise for the Cowboys last year. The Cowboys re-signed him, so Williams should continue to see a big workload.
Projected 2026 Fantasy Stats: 1,200 rushing yards. 33 catches. 190 receiving yards. 14 total TDs.Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 223.
Derrick Henry, RB, Ravens. Bye: 13.
Derrick Henry rushed for nearly 2,000 yards and tied for the league lead in rushing touchdowns in 2024. He wasn't as good last year, and the coaching staff seemed to forget that he was even on the roster at times.
Projected 2026 Fantasy Stats: 1,360 rushing yards. 15 catches. 120 receiving yards. 12 total TDs.Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 220.
David Montgomery, RB, Texans. Bye: 8.
David Montgomery is the primary back once again, but he's 29 and will share some carries with Woody Marks.
Projected 2026 Fantasy Stats: 1,140 rushing yards. 22 catches. 170 receiving yards. 13 total TDs.Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 209.
Breece Hall, RB, Jets. Bye: 13.
It was reported that Breece Hall would split the workload with Braelon Allen. So, that didn't happen. Hall will continue to play well for New York.
Projected 2026 Fantasy Stats: 1,060 rushing yards. 62 catches. 540 receiving yards. 8 total TDs.Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 208.
Kyren Williams, RB, Rams. Bye: 11.
Kyren Williams continued to be a touchdown machine, though he gave up some scores to Blake Corum.
Projected 2026 Fantasy Stats: 1,090 rushing yards. 30 catches. 210 receiving yards. 12 total TDs.Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 202.
Quinshon Judkins, RB, Browns. Bye: 11.
Quinshon Judkins had some nice performances last year until he fractured his fibula and was lost for the year.
Projected 2026 Fantasy Stats: 1,090 rushing yards. 35 catches. 250 receiving yards. 10 total TDs.Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 194.
Jeremiyah Love, RB, Cardinals. Bye: 14.
Jeremiyah Love owners couldn't have been happy when they saw that Tyler Allgeier received the first reps among the running backs in training camp. Perhaps this was to be expected, but it's a reminder that both Allgeier and James Conner will be around to take work away from the talented rookie.
Projected 2026 Fantasy Stats: 1,050 rushing yards. 26 catches. 210 receiving yards. 7 total TDs.Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 188.
Bhayshul Tuten, RB, Jaguars. Bye: 7.
Bhayshul Tuten has been "picking up steam" in OTAs, while Chris Rodriguez has missed time with an undisclosed injury. It's anyone's guess as to who will lead the team in carries, but it certainly seems like Tuten has a good head start.
Projected 2026 Fantasy Stats: 950 rushing yards. 30 catches. 220 receiving yards. 7 total TDs.Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 184.
