Woody Marks practises in full Friday after missing Thursday (knee)

Woody Marks practised in full Friday after missing Thursday's session with a knee issue. He was limited Wednesday, did not practise Thursday, then returned to full participation Friday and carries no game status for Sunday's matchup at Cleveland.

A full practice does not guarantee he plays, but Marks appears on track for Week 10. His fantasy value this week depends entirely on David Montgomery's groin injury status. If Montgomery is ruled out, Marks becomes a strong play as the lead back against a Cleveland defence that has allowed 19.5 half-PPR points a game to running backs, the 14th most of 32. If Montgomery plays, Marks remains a hold in a split backfield.

Fantasy impact

Player by player

Woody Marks

Marks handled 18 carries and four targets for 7.9 half-PPR points against the Chargers in Week 9, taking 66 per cent of the snaps. Emari Demercado worked 23 per cent of snaps with six carries and two targets. Over his last three games, Marks has averaged 78 per cent of snaps, 17.3 carries and 2.7 targets per game for 8.5 half-PPR points a game. He is scoring 4.0 half-PPR points a game below what his usage predicts, so his role is worth more than his recent points.

Our models project 8.2 half-PPR points a game from Marks, ranking him 31st among running backs. His Roundup Score of 62 out of 99 ranks 30th of 121 running backs, with subscores of 59 for opportunity and 68 for role security but just three for efficiency. He averages 2.7 carries inside the 20 per game over his last three contests, ranking 20th of 115 running backs. Monitor Montgomery's status closely: if Montgomery sits, Marks becomes a viable RB2 play. If Montgomery plays, hold Marks but keep him on the bench in shallow formats.

What to do

• Check David Montgomery's inactive list status about 90 minutes before Sunday's kickoff to determine Marks's fantasy value.

• Start Marks as an RB2 option if Montgomery is ruled out, given his 78 per cent snap share over his last three games and a matchup that ranks in the easier half against running backs.

• Hold Marks but keep him on the bench if Montgomery plays, as his 7.9 half-PPR points a game this season makes him a touchdown-dependent flex at best in a split backfield.
