Chase Brown enters healthy at $6900 against Miami, a matchup that rewards backs who contribute in both the run and pass game. His recent production shows a mix of rushing yardage and receiving work, including a touchdown in each sample game, which supports his role as a dual-threat back. A heavier workload or expanded targets would strengthen the start case further.

The Bengals are weighing whether to put in a claim for running back Kaytron Allen, who is available after being waived. Cincinnati's depth chart behind Chase Brown and Samaje Perine is considered thin, making Allen an intriguing addition if the team decides to bolster its backfield options.
