Cowboys' Elliott, Vikings' Thielen among best bets to score

Inactive Week 5 Howard (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 5 tilt against the 49ers.
Impact Howard has primarily been a red-zone specialist for the Dolphins through four games, totaling just 18 carries on the season, with eight coming from the 20-yard line or closer on his way to three rushing scores. However, he'll now don street clothes for the first time all season, with Miami set to go with a top RB duo of Myles Gaskin and Matt Breida against the 49ers.

Fails to score in loss Howard had two carries for two yards during Sunday's 31-23 loss to the Seahawks.
Impact Howard managed to score in short-yardage scenarios during the first three weeks of the season, but in Week 4 he showcased the sort of low-floor fantasy statline his current usage will result in when he's not lucky enough to score. The 25-year-old hasn't yet exceeded 10 rushing yards in a game this season.

Another short score Howard had three carries for one yard and a touchdown during Thursday's 31-13 win over the Jaguars.
Impact Howard took the field late in the first quarter to punch in a one-yard score, salvaging his fantasy day with a TD for the third consecutive week. Now that he's been completely relegated to short-yardage duties (0.8 YPC through three contests), Howard's low-ceiling, low-floor fantasy value only comes due to his consistent goal-line work.

Takes back seat again Howard had five carries for four yards and one score during Sunday's 31-28 loss to the Bills.
Impact Howard had only five total touches Sunday, the second straight contest in which he was marginalized to short-yardage situations and salvaged his fantasy day with a touchdown. Myles Gaskin and Matt Breida each had more carries than Howard (seven) and are also involved in the passing game. As long as Howard remains relegated to just a goal-line role on an unreliable offense, he'll be difficult to trust for fantasy purposes.

FANTASY PLAYS: Players to start and sit for NFL Week 2

FANTASY PLAYS: Players to add include Hines, Snell, Watkins

FANTASY PLAYS: Players to add for Week 2 include running backs Nyheim Hines of Indianapolis, Benny Snell Jr. of Pittsburgh and wide receiver Sammy Watkins of Kansas City

Salvages day with short TD Howard rushed eight times for seven yards and the team's lone touchdown in Sunday's 21-11 loss to the Patriots.
Impact It's a relief that Howard appears to have escaped the game injury-free, but he couldn't find any running room and ceded the majority of carries to Myles Gaskin (nine carries for 40 yards) and Matt Breida (five carries for 22 yards). He salvaged an otherwise forgettable Dolphins debut with a one-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. Howard's fantasy value in Week 2 against Buffalo and beyond will be tied to goal-line touches, given his competition for carries and lack of receiving acumen.

SEPTEMBER 13, 2020 • MIAMIDOLPHINS.COM
Avoids injury A press box announcement that indicated Howard suffered a hamstring injury Sunday against the Patriots was erroneous, Armando Salguero of the Miami Herald reports.
Impact Meanwhile, DeVante Parker is evidently the Miami player dealing a with a hamstring issue. Howard will thus continue to share backfield duties Sunday with Myles Gaskin and Matt Breida.
SEPTEMBER 13, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Injures hamstring Howard (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest in New England, Doug Kyed of NESN.com reports.
Impact Prior to his departure, Howard had five carries for six yards. As long as Howard is sidelined, the Dolphins will rely on Matt Breida, Myles Gaskin and Patrick Laird on the ground.
SEPTEMBER 13, 2020 • ROTOWIRE
Headlines depth chart Howard is listed as the top running back on Miami's first unofficial depth chart, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Howard reportedly put together a solid inaugural training camp with the Dolphins, and his position as the team's starter out of the backfield appears solidified. Matt Breida also stands to garner a significant amount of carries, and he looks like the favorite for work in passing scenarios, but Howard should balance that out by being the top option around the goal line. The 25-year-old faces a tough matchup against the Patriots in Week 1, but he looks locked in for a respectable workload.

Already inspiring confidence Dolphins running backs coach Eric Studesville lauded Howard's "experience" Tuesday but said it's still too early to decide how backfield snaps will dispense, Cameron Wolfe of ESPN....
Impact "[Howard]'s got good feet for a big back, he's got good vision," Studesville said. "I think he'll have a chance to be a physical presence for us, as well as effective in the passing game with what we're asking for." It's somewhat surprising to hear Studesville express confidence in Howard's pass-catching chops, considering that the 25-year-old has seen his receiving totals diminish with each year in the league, but it at least leaves open the door for possible added utility in PPR leagues. It seems far more likely, however, that Howard will claim the majority of the work on early downs while backfield mate Matt Breida operates as Miami's preferred change-of-pace option. The most realistic outcome for the Dolphins' backfield is probably a committee approach, the likes of which is normally dreaded for fantasy purposes, but if Howard's vision and short-area power can also make him the top option around the goal line, he could provide consistent weekly value.
