NFL Week 12: Running Backs To Start
-----------------------------------
**START _Kenneth Walker III_:** in Week 11 against the Rams, Walker totaled 111 yards from scrimmage, showing some of his best form. He made defenders miss and accelerated to gain extra yardage when needed. Afterward, Mike Macdonald [indicated that Walker may have earned more work](https://url.us.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/jXqpC2koWriE8Zm6f0FVC5nj5s?domain=seahawks.com) going forward. Tennessee ranks 25th in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to RBs this season.
Walker [displayed his versatility against Los Angeles](https://url.us.m.mimecastprotect.com/s/_s2BC31pwvfR294xiOH8CQBelP?domain=seahawks.com), and he rushed for his fourth TD of the year. As you make a fantasy football playoff push, more receiving work to add to his rushing numbers can only make Walker a more important option down the stretch.
**START Aaron Jones:** In his ninth NFL season, Jones is still admirably showing off his blend of elusiveness and power. He carried the ball a season-high 16 times last week and rushed for 70 yards. This week, Minnesota takes on Green Bay, which ranks 26th in rushing yards allowed to RBs over the past four weeks. Jones should carry enough again to help ease some pressure on J.J. McCarthy.
**START Woody Marks:** The Houston rookie has flashed some potential at times this season, and he might be an essential performer for the Texans vs. Buffalo. The Bills are highly vulnerable to opposing RBs, and Houston will want to control the ball as much as possible against the Bills. Buffalo ranks second in Fantasy Points Per Game allowed to RBs. Consider Marks as a flex play or fill-in RB if you need one.
**START Alvin Kamara:** The longtime Saints star can still provide respectable fantasy totals at times. Before New Orleans' bye, Kamara totaled 115 scrimmage yards in Week 10. New Orleans faces Atlanta this week. The Falcons have allowed the second-most receiving yards to RBs over the past four weeks. Start Kamara for a decent statistical floor as a flex or bye week lineup plugger.
**More Fantasy Football RBs To Start In Week 12:** Quinshon Judkins vs. Las Vegas, Travis Etienne vs. Arizona, Kareem Hunt vs. Indianapolis, Devin Singletary vs, Detroit.
**Fantasy Football Waiver Wire Power Rankings: Week 12 Running Backs**
1. Sean Tucker: His huge three-TD game in Week 11 makes him the No.1 add of the week, and he could be a regular starter until Bucky Irving returns.
2. Bhayshul Tuten: Monitor the status of his ankle injury, but Tuten should become more of a factor in the Jacksonville backfield in the weeks ahead.
3. Emanuel Wilson: Might be needed to start for the Packers in Week 12 as Josh Jacobs is dealing with a knee injury.
4. Kenneth Gainwell: Caught seven passes for 81 yards last week and could be in line for more shared work in the Pittsburgh backfield.
5. Devin Singletary: Rushed for two TDs last week and should continue to be a goal-line finisher for the Giants.
6. Chris Rodriguez Jr.
7. Ollie Gordon
8. Jaleel McLaughlin
