Cincinnati Bengals RB Chase Brown rushed 13 times for 72 yards in Week 18 against the Cleveland Browns, while adding four receptions for 18 yards and a touchdown on his six targets.
Huddle Up: Brown ran for at least 66 yards in each of his final three games, and he total four rushing touchdowns and four receiving scores across the final five outings. He emerged as a legit low-end RB1 or top-tier RB2 in all fantasy leagues down the stretch. He'll likely be highly sought after early on draft day in 2026.

Huddle Up: Brown is coming off one of his best performances of the season and will now be tested by a strong Browns' defense. Despite the matchup, Brown can be installed as an RB2 in Week 18 with eyes on him potentially reaching RB1 status in 2026 with a healthy Bengals' offense.
