Week 4 is here and that means another round of RB rankings. The top name running backs haven’t been doing well but trust me they will go off this week. It is still early in the season, but you need to run with your top guys still. However, if you went zero RB strategy, these Week 4 RB Rankings will lead you into the win column for Week 4
Just as a reminder, these rankings lists are based on half-PPR scoring.

Week 4 RB Notes:
- Najee Harris hasn’t been the running back he was last season, but has a great matchup against the Jets this week. The Jets are giving up over 22 fantasy points a game this year. I expect Harris to have his breakout this week.
- Jamaal Williams jumps up to RB11 this week since D’Andre Swift will miss a few weeks. Williams has four touchdowns on the year and is expected to have more with Swift out. Last week, Williams went for 87 yards and two touchdowns.
- Khalil Herbert also jumps up with the possibility of David Montgomery missing this week. Herbert had 157 yards and two touchdowns last week. He is sure to do the same this week.
- Lastly, we have Dameon Pierce at RB21. Last week Pierce showed he is the number one back. This week he has the Chargers who are giving up over 23 fantasy points a game. Expect Pierce to show up.
