Fantasy Football Week 7 Start 'Em, Sit 'Em: Zach Charbonnet vs. Cam Skattebo
Evaluating who to play in fantasy football this week between Seattle Seahawks RB Zach Charbonnet and New York Giants RB Cam Skattebo.
Two running backs who have complicated fantasy outlooks for Week 7 are New York Giants' Cam Skattebo and Seattle Seahawks' Zach Charbonnet. Skattebo faced a difficult week as he was demoted to backup by Giants' Head Coach John Harbaugh, due to his history of fumbling. In his last five games, Skattebo has fumbled four times, leading to him only playing six snaps and not gaining a carry or a reception.
Skattebo's opponent, Houston Texans, allows the third-fewest rushing yards per game (83.0) and 10th-fewest PPR/standard fantasy points per game for opposing running backs. Meanwhile, Charbonnet, who suffered an ACL tear in the NFC Divisional Playoff last year, has returned and practices regularly. He will face Kansas City Chiefs, who have an elite rushing defense, allowing only 88.0 rushing yards per game and 9th-fewest PPR/standard fantasy points per game.
Fantasy managers should start Charbonnet over Skattebo this Week 7, as the latter's usage is unpredictable and his inability to score touchdowns makes him a less desirable option.
