Richardson carried the ball 24 times against the Chargers, with 122 yards and a TD.
Fantasy Impact: For once, it sounds like T-Rich will be healthy this week. He’s still not 100% after taking a shot to the ribs in Week 6, but he’s getting there.
The Ravens have one of the worst run defenses in the league, so T-Rich has a chance to tee off again. Start him as a RB1 in fantasy leagues.
