Jonathan Taylor‘s poor run continued in the fourth week of the National Football League (NFL). The Indianapolis Colts’ running back, who is the top fantasy pick this year, suffered an ankle injury during Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles. He had 20 carries for 42 scoreless yards. 

Taylor may have let down fantasy managers, but several other RBs delivered brilliant performances. Among them was Saquon Barkley who led his team, the New York Giants, to a 20-12 victory over the Chicago Bears 20-12 on Sunday.

Here’s the list of top Running Backs in Week 4 – 

1. Josh Jacobs (Las Vegas Raiders) – Jacobs, with two touchdown carries, made up for an not-so-impressive performance from the entire offensive unit against the Denver Broncos on Sunday. With a career-high 144 yards rushing on 28 carries, the 24-year-old finished with 34.5 PPR fantasy points, which were the second most the RB has scored in a game in his four-year NFL career. 

2. Austin Ekeler (Los Angeles Chargers) – The 27-year-old had six catches, 109 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns in the Week 4 win over Houston Texans. Ekeler scored 34.9 fantasy points in Week 4 and will remain a top-five RB in PPR formats for the following week matchup against the Cleveland defense.

3. Miles Sanders (Philadelphia Eagles) – The RB played a key role in Eagles’ 29 to 21 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars at Lincoln Financial Field on Sunday. The 25-year-old finished the game with 27 carries for 134 yards and two touchdowns. He also had two receptions for 22 receiving yards.

5. Jamaal Williams (Detroit Lions) – The 27-year-old once again proved to be a reliable option as he scored two rushing touchdowns en route to 108 yards on 19 carries against Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. He finished with 23.9 PPR fantasy points.
