Kenny Gainwell vs. PIT — Low-Volume Backup Role Caps Weekly Appeal
Gainwell continues to operate as a change-of-pace option behind starter Bucky Irving in Tampa Bay's backfield. While offensive coordinator Zac Robinson expressed interest in getting him and Sean Tucker more involved, Tucker is questionable with a quad injury, potentially leaving Gainwell with secondary work to himself. Still, with starting quarterback Baker Mayfield out, this offense faces a tough test in a low-scoring matchup against Pittsburgh.
Our weekly projections expect a modest workload of roughly 5 carries for 19 rushing yards alongside 2 catches for 16 receiving yards. Over his last two games, Gainwell has logged 7 carries and 5 receptions, showing reliable pass-down utility but insufficient volume. Given his sub-20% start rate and limited scoring chances, he remains a bench option in standard leagues, viable only as a deep-league PPR dart throw.

Outlook Tyrone Tracy
Tyrone Tracy vs. Saints — Buried in the Giants Backfield Rotation
Tracy has settled into a minor complementary role in New York's backfield, working behind Cam Skattebo and Najee Harris. Over his last two games, he has logged just four rushing attempts and two catches for 25 receiving yards, reflecting an offense that rarely dials up designed touches for him.
Our weekly projection expects Tracy to finish with around 4.8 fantasy points on roughly four carries and one reception against New Orleans. With an ownership rate sitting at just 3% and near-zero lineup starts, he holds no standalone value and should remain firmly planted on fantasy benches.
