David Culley will likely do the same with Houston's backfield of Phillip Lindsay, Mark Ingram and David Johnson. Perhaps he'll even find some chances for Rex Burkhead; you don't want to leave that on the bench. Death to fantasy value.   more »

With Brown likely moving on, Akers should earn most of his carries and snaps next season. Fellow running back DARRELL HENDERSON is still around, but the backfield appears to belong to Akers in 2021.

Around the NFL: Rams running backs

The Rams released Todd Gurley, which seemingly frees up some top production from another running back. They've got Malcolm Brown (pictured), who they liked enough to match a restricted free agency offer for a year ago, and last year's third-rounder Darrell Henderson.

Rams leave fantasy owners speechless in loss

The Rams managed just 165 total yards of offense,More with quarterback JARED GOFF throwing for a career-low 78 yards. With star running back TODD GURLEY sitting out the game with an injury, backups MALCOLM BROWN and DARRELL HENDERSON did little to help the offense. Fantasy owners will hope for better results next Sunday when the Rams play against the Atlanta Falcons. Less

Factoid: Darrell Henderson

Rams third-rounder Darrell Henderson is one of the more interesting selections in early summer fantasy drafts. Where to select him depends a little bit on how confident you are in Todd Gurley. Henderson may not be the direct handcuff (that might be Malcolm Brown), but he's the more explosive of the two options.   more »
