Cleveland Browns running back Robert Turbin has a long way to go if he's looking to accomplish the 1,000-yard goal he set for himself. Turbin rushed 10 times for 26 yards in a loss to the Denver Broncos. Turbin saw just one fewer carry than running back Isaiah Crowell, who gained 32 yards on the ground and caught two passes for nine yards. Turbin understandably is off to a slow start after being sidelined until Week 6 with an ankle injury. Considering Crowell and running back Duke Johnson have been underwhelming for the Browns, Turbin has every opportunity to take over the team's backfield.

Fantasy impact: It’s possible that no running back will emerge as the Browns’ clear-cut leader this season. However, this is Turbin’s first legitimate shot at taking the reins in any backfield. Turbin is available in virtually every fantasy league out there. He’s a great low-risk pickup especially in deeper leagues. Turbin is worth stashing and monitoring over the next few weeks.
