NFL Fantasy 2024 Start ‘Em, Sit ‘Em: Running Backs for Week 15
Week 15 of the 2024 NFL season is upon us, and it’s time to make some tough decisions about your fantasy football lineup. With so many great running backs to choose from, it can be difficult to know who to start and who to sit. To help you out, we’ve put together a list of running backs who we think you should start and sit in Week 15.
Start ‘Em
Alvin Kamara, New Orleans Saints
Kamara has been one of the most consistent running backs in fantasy football all season long, and he’s a great option to start in Week 15 against the Atlanta Falcons. The Falcons have allowed the most fantasy points to running backs this season, so Kamara should have a big day.
Derrick Henry, Tennessee Titans
Henry is another running back who has been very consistent this season, and he’s a great option to start in Week 15 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to running backs this season, so Henry should be in for a big day.
Josh Jacobs, Las Vegas Raiders
Jacobs has been a bit of a disappointment this season, but he’s still a good option to start in Week 15 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers have allowed the third-most fantasy points to running backs this season, so Jacobs should be able to find some success on the ground.
Sit ‘Em
Saquon Barkley, New York Giants
Barkley has been struggling all season long, and he’s not a good option to start in Week 15 against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles have allowed the fewest fantasy points to running backs this season, so Barkley is likely to have a tough day.
Ezekiel Elliott, Dallas Cowboys
Elliott has also been struggling this season, and he’s not a good option to start in Week 15 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Buccaneers have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to running backs this season, so Elliott is likely to have a tough day.
Melvin Gordon, Denver Broncos
Gordon has been splitting carries with Latavius Murray all season long, and he’s not a good option to start in Week 15 against the Kansas City Chiefs. The Chiefs have allowed the fifth-fewest fantasy points to running backs this season, so Gordon is likely to have a tough day.
Sleeper Pick
Rachaad White, Tampa Bay Buccaneers
White has been a bit of a surprise this season, and he’s a good sleeper pick for Week 15 against the Dallas Cowboys. The Cowboys have allowed the most fantasy points to running backs this season, so White should have a chance to put up some good numbers.

Here are some running backs who are dealing with injuries and could miss Week 15:
- Christian McCaffrey, San Francisco 49ers (ankle)
