## Resource

Which running backs are primed for a Week 2 fantasy football breakout, and which ones should you avoid at all costs? Matt Donnelly breaks down key start/sit decisions, spotlighting David Montgomery’s favorable matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals and highlighting the rising value of Jadarrius Price for the Seattle Seahawks. Javonte Williams of the Dallas Cowboys emerges as a top fantasy play thanks to his increased role and pass-catching ability, while Rhamondre Stevenson’s strong workload keeps him in the mix against a shaky Pittsburgh Steelers run defense. Not every breakout is for real, though. Matt Donnelly warns listeners about risky options like J.K. Dobbins facing the Jacksonville Jaguars’ stingy run defense and Jeremiyah Love’s uncertain split in the Arizona Cardinals backfield. With insights into committee workloads, game-script impact, and looming injury updates, this episode sets the stage for making bold, informed fantasy football moves this week.
