Ahmad Bradshaw injury: Giants RB expected to play, boosting fantasy value
Ahmad Bradshaw is expected to play Sunday when the Giants take on the Bengals, despite a foot injury. We break down the fantasy implications.

Bradshaw has not scored a touchdown in two straight games, after finding the end zone in every game from Week 5 through Week 7. Andre Brown has taken over goal-line duties, with a touchdown run in his last three outings.
Fantasy Impact: Bradshaw will suit up, but how much he’ll actually play is unclear. On top of that, his fantasy value has taken a big hit the last three weeks, with Brown leeching touchdowns. At the moment, it’s hard to call Bradshaw a runaway must-start.
If you do have to start a running back from the Giants’ offensive backfield, at least you’ll be getting a decent matchup this week. The Bengals are giving up 4.2 yards per carry on the year, and have surrendered nine rushing touchdowns.
