Fantasy Football Player Notes

Saquon Barkley continued his bizarre trend of alternating top-two fantasy weeks with weeks outside the top 20. Does that mean fantasy managers should fade Barkley in Week 12? In a word, no. Barkley leads the NFL in scrimmage yards and is second among running backs in fantasy points. He faces a Rams defense in Week 12 that has performed better of late against running backs. But they are still giving up an average of 135.2 scrimmage yards per game to opposing running backs. Keep Barkley locked in as a high-end RB1 this week.
