Alexander Mattison Week 9 Outlook - Raiders at Bengals

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Oct 31st 2024, 1:05pm EDT

Since Week 5, Mattison has been the workhorse for Las Vegas, playing at least 57% of the snaps weekly, averaging 20.3 touches and 73.3 total yards. During this stretch he has been the RB29 in fantasy points per game. Mattison remains a volume bet only weekly because we're not getting efficiency here. Among 43 qualifying backs, he ranks 34th in missed tackles forced per attempt and 38th in yards after contact per attempt. This is a great matchup on the ground for Mattison this week, where his volume could carry him a bit further. Cincy has allowed the ninth-most rushing yards per game, the third-highest zone success rate (Mattison 62.7% zone), and the highest rushing success rate. We've seen Mattison pile up the volume and finish with a nice day (RB19 vs. LAR), and it easily could happen again this week.
