Quinshon Judkins
vs Cam Skattebo

““ Quinshon Judkins had a surprisingly solid performance last Thursday night against the Steelers, but I still don’t buy it. The Browns are winning, yet Judkins is still having a tough time getting going. The second-year back is averaging an abysmal 3.0 yards per carry this season and hasn’t topped 70 rushing yards in a game yet.”

“Judkins is averaging 0.64 yards before contact per rush, 33rd on that same list. He has been targeted on 24.3% of his routes (RB15) but has still run a route on only 35.6% of dropbacks (RB26), sharing passing duties with Raheim Sanders . Pittsburgh is 24th in expected points allowed per game to running backs , coming off allowing 69 total yards on 15 touches to Chase Brown on Sunday.”

“Judkins has a 68.3% snap rate with 53.3% of the rushing attempts, a 38.5% route share, and a 13.5% target share. He has handled all three of the Browns’ red zone rushing attempts this season. Unfortunately, he has been woefully inefficient with his workload, with zero explosive runs, 1.42 yards after contact per attempt, and an 8% missed tackle rate.”

“Quinshon Judkins is the Ballers consensus RB22 and can be benched if you have better options.”

“Quinshon Judkins has had 12 carries in each of his first two games and hasn’t had a run of 10 or more yards. He’s averaging 2.3 yards per carry behind a rebuilt Browns offensive line that ranks dead last in the run-blocking metric adjusted line yards. But Judkins gets a favorable home matchup against a Panthers defense that has given up the most rushing yards to RBs.”

“Quinshon Judkins is the RB33 in fantasy points per game, averaging 15.5 touches and 49 total yards per game.”

“Judkins is averaging 2.25 YPC on 24 carries (54 total yards), but he did have five receptions this week with Dylan Sampson out of the lineup. That may be enough to convince another owner that he is a true workhorse back and worthy of an RB2 trade. Maybe an opportunistic Chuba Hubbard owner would consider swapping for Judkins, knowing that the Browns are fully committed to him as their RB1?”

“Cam Skattebo is getting nearly every touch in this backfield, with 46 more touches this season than Najee Harris , the Giants’ No. 2 RB. We haven’t seen much touchdown luck yet, and that total will likely remain relatively low in this offense.”

“Cam Skattebo is the top option and veteran RB Najee Harris has ascended to the No. 2 role. Tracy has kept a spot on the active roster because he can contribute as a kickoff returner but he’s had just one touch each of the past two weeks. He’s still on a rookie contract and has flashed some explosiveness as a rusher and receiver his first two years.”

“If Jeanty struggles against the Dolphins, it will be a long season once again for Jeanty owners.” – Muntradamus ( Beast Dome ) Cam Skattebo (RB – NYG) “I don’t know about “likely” to disappoint, but there’s certainly a chance that Cam Skattebo could leave his investors wanting for more.”

“Skattebo was a highlight from the group of New York backs in 2025, turning 125 touches into 617 yards and 7 touchdowns in his eight appearances. Skattebo had the best rushing success rate (39.6%) of the backs, compared to a 37% rate for Devin Singletary and a 31.8% rate for Tyrone Tracy.”

“Everyone hopes that Skattebo can stay healthy after missing over half is rookie season with a gruesome ankle injury. Yet, the star running back recently said he won’t change his playing style.”

“Obviously, for this to happen, Cam Skattebo would need to avoid the injury bug and play a full season. Tough ask with his running style. But when he was on the field, he showed elite metrics.”

“When given an opportunity to handle the early-down work for Big Blue last season, Skattebo finished as an RB1 in three of five weeks. Not only does he have a nose for the end zone and constantly runs through arm tackles, he is also an adept receiver, and one of Jaxson Dart ‘s best friends.”
