Cincinnati Bengals RB Brian Leonard (ribs) is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday Night Football against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Leonard was held out of practice all week and is extremely unlikely to play. Leonard has battled injuries all year, and has just 61 yards from scrimmage.
Brian Leonard injury update: No fantasy value with doubtful status
Brian Leonard is doubtful for Week 7 against the Steelers. We break down the fantasy implications.

Cedric Peerman is expected to be the primary backup to BenJarvus Green-Ellis.
Fantasy Impact: Not much. Green-Ellis has been a workhorse for Cincy, and the team has done little to indicate they will limit his carries.
Peerman hauled in 76 receiving yards last week in garbage time. He probably won’t get as much playing time unless the Bengals fall down early again. Neither of these players should be on the fantasy radar.
