Khalil Herbert
RB - Cincinnati Bengals
Week 12 Outlook
Availability
Khalil Herbert did not record a carry or draw any targets in a 34-27 loss to the Chargers in Week 11.
Fantasy Impact
Herbert played on a handful of snaps but Chase Brown dominated the Bengals backfield in the close loss. The good news is that Herbert appears to have a tight grip on the No. 2 RB role in Cincinnati, making him worth a look as a handcuff in fantasy. He will be on bye in Week 12.
Bengals RB Khalil Herbert is officially active for a Week 10 matchup with the Ravens.
Fantasy Impact
Herbert was just recently traded to the Bengals, so there was some uncertainty as to whether or not he would be up to speed with the offense in such a short amount of time. He will likely have a limited role against Baltimore.
Khalil Herbert is expected to play on Thursday against the Ravens.
Fantasy Impact
Herbert was traded to the Bengals earlier in the week on Tuesday. He reportedly worked aggressively over the last few days to get up to speed on Cincinnati’s offense. Chase Brown should still remain in his lead role.
Khalil Herbert has been traded to the Bengals in exchange for a seventh-round pick.
Fantasy Impact
Herbert's move to Cincinnati comes shortly after the Bengals announced that Zack Moss will be out indefinitely with a neck injury. The workload split between Herbert and Chase Brown is yet to be determined, but Herbert's arrival could limit Brown's ceiling, as it is reasonable to assume Herbert could inherit goal line work and cut into Chase's volume. Depending on the split, Chase will likely still be fantasy-viable but may fall into the RB3 range rather than the RB2, while Herbert's fantasy value is yet to be determined.
Khalil Herbert is officially inactive for Week 9 for the Chicago Bears against the Arizona Cardinals.
Fantasy Impact
Herbert is once again a healthy inactive for the Bears, with D’Andre Swift and Roschon Johnson leading the Chicago ground attack against the Cardinals Sunday.
