The running back situation with the Cincinnati Bengals has not been fun. A lot of fantasy owners spent big on running back Jeremy Hill on draft day, but he hasn't been worth that value as just RB32 in PPR leagues. He's being outproduced by teammate Giovani Bernard, who is RB18 in PPR right now.

Well, both guys should be in for a big day against the Cleveland Browns on Thursday. The Bengals are at home and the Browns have been the worst rushing defense for the past two seasons. They were dead last in rushing yards allowed last year and are last once again. They have also been worse on the road. The short week usually affects the road teams a bit more than the home guys, so Hill and Bernard should be treated somewhat normally.
Fantasy impact: Both guys should be in lineups for Thursday with Hill having the higher upside.
