Ollie Gordon vs. Detroit: Heavy Workload Ahead in High-Scoring Matchup
Gordon has firmly established himself as Miami's lead back, highlighted by forcing 10 missed tackles against the Jets in late October. With Jaylen Wright and Kaytron Allen both battling quad injuries, Gordon is poised to handle heavy volume after racking up 44 carries over his last two games.
Our weekly projections slate Gordon for 13.6 fantasy points on roughly 15 carries for 65 yards and solid touchdown potential. Even though Miami enters as a home underdog, this matchup's high projected point total should offer quality scoring opportunities, making him a strong start in fantasy lineups.

Potential Spot Start Awaits in New Orleans With Watson Sidelined
Sanders is positioned as the primary backup under center in Cleveland, which takes on major significance as starter Deshaun Watson landed in concussion protocol and missed practice. While Sanders has only attempted two passes this season, he handled first-team questions with confidence this week and would direct the offense in New Orleans if Watson cannot gain medical clearance.
Should he earn the start, our weekly projections anticipate 172 passing yards, one touchdown, and 17 rushing yards (11.2 fantasy points). However, with Watson’s availability undecided and Cleveland facing a low-scoring road environment, Sanders is rostered in barely 3% of leagues and remains strictly a bench option in standard leagues, profile-fitting only deep two-quarterback or Superflex formats.
