Demetric Felton Fantasy Stats

Indianapolis Colts running back Demetric Felton ran the ball four times for 44 yards and a touchdown in the team's win against the Bengals. Felton also caught both of his targets for an additional eight yards through the air. Felton struggled with his first three carries, netting just four yards, eventually taking his final carry 40 yards for a touchdown to help seal the win for Indy. Felton didn't see action until the fourth quarter, playing behind Jonathan Taylor, Tyler Goodson, and Evan Hull, indicating he might be on the outside looking in for a spot in the rotation this season. That being said, with the injury to Trey Sermon (hamstring), the RB2 role is up for grabs and Felton made his case for it with his performance.

The Chicago Bears signed running back Demetric Felton to a contract on Sunday. Felton, a former sixth-round pick by the Cleveland Browns in 2021 out of UCLA, has appeared in 24 games since his debut and has accumulated 209 scrimmage yards and two touchdowns on 28 touches. This signing likely aims to bolster the running back depth ahead of Thursday's Pro Football Hall of Fame Game, especially since Travis Homer and Ian Wheeler were injured in Saturday's practice. To make room for Felton, the Bears granted an international roster exemption to punter Tory Taylor, who does not count against the 90-man roster limit. This exemption will not affect the 53-man roster limit, which will come into play when the Bears make final roster cuts.

The Bengals signed running back Demetric Felton Jr. to the practice squad. The 25-year-old, drafted in the sixth round of the 2021 NFL Draft, appeared in 24 games for the Browns. He had just eight carries for 20 yards during his time in Cleveland. However, Felton was slightly more productive as a pass-catcher, amassing 20 receptions for 189 yards and two touchdowns. Bengals offensive coordinator Brian Callahan touted the former UCLA Bruin's skillset. Yet, Callahan indicated Felton would only be utilized as a running back instead of seeing time in the slot, something he did while with the Browns. That said, Felton isn't likely to produce anytime soon, although he's worth monitoring if the Bengals encounter injuries at the position throughout the 2023-24 campaign.

The Cleveland Browns cut running back/wide receiver Demetric Felton Jr. on Tuesday in order to get their roster down to the required 53 players. Entering the 2023 regular season, the Browns are going with a running back depth chart that includes bell-cow back Nick Chubb, Jerome Ford and the recently acquired Pierre Strong Jr. Felton, a sixth-rounder in 2021 out of UCLA, had just eight carries for 20 yards while catching 20 passes on 25 targets for an additional 189 yards and two touchdowns in his two seasons with Cleveland. The 25-year-old was more impressive as a pass-catcher and return man on special teams in his rookie campaign. There's a good chance he'll clear waivers and return to the team's practice squad to begin the year.

Cleveland Browns running back Demetric Felton Jr. carried the ball eight times for 31 yards in a 17-15 loss to the Washington Commanders in preseason action on Friday. Felton got the start with Nick Chubb not playing and second-string running back Jerome Ford nursing a hamstring injury. The team is calling Ford's hamstring a week-to-week injury, opening the door for Felton to compete to be the main backup to Chubb in the meantime. Look for Felton to continue to see plenty of opportunity to play in the remainder of Cleveland's preseason games.

Cleveland Browns running back Demetric Felton Jr. carried the ball seven times for 46 yards and a touchdown while adding another nine yards on two catches in a 21-16 win over the New York Jets in the preseason Hall of Fame game on Thursday. Felton found the end zone in the second half on a 16-yard rush. The third-year running back also was active on special teams, returning five punts in the contest. With just eight carries and 20 catches to his name in the NFL, Felton is looking to carve out a role as a pass-catcher in the running game behind Nick Chubb and Jerome Ford this preseason.

Cleveland Browns running back Demetric Felton Jr. is going to play as a running back this spring behind Nick Chubb and Jerome Ford. The Browns also have John Kelly and undrafted rookie Hassan Hall in the running back room. Hall likely needs to add muscle before he can be considered a candidate to play a meaningful role, but he's in line to see a lot of work this summer at training camp and has a chance to earn a spot on the practice squad. The 24-year-old Felton has also been used as a wide receiver and a return specialist on special teams, but none of those spots have really worked out for him. He has seven carries in his two years with the Browns, and he's unlikely to see a big role in the backfield unless Chubb or Ford get injured.

The Cleveland Browns officially activated running back Demetric Felton from the reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. He didn't play in the Week 10 blowout loss to the New England Patriots but will return for Sunday's game against the Lions. The 23-year-old has rushed for 16 yards on three attempts while catching 13 passes for 147 yards and a touchdown over nine games this season. Felton will be used as a change-of-pace back and serve as the backup behind Nick Chubb (who was recently activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list) and D'Ernest Johnson. The UCLA product is not on the fantasy radar in Week 11.

Cleveland Browns running backs Nick Chubb and Demetric Felton remain on the Reserve/COVID-19 list and have been ruled out for Week 10 against the New England Patriots. The Browns were holding out hope that Chubb would be able to play this Sunday, but he wasn't able to deliver two negative tests 24 hours apart. With both Chubb and Felton out and Kareem Hunt (calf) still on Injured Reserve, D'Ernest Johnson will serve as the team's lead running back against the Patriots. John Kelly is also on the COVID-19 list, so the Browns will likely call up recently signed running back Brian Hill to the active roster to back Johnson up on Sunday. With the big volume increase this weekend, Johnson will be in the RB2 picture for Week 10.

Cleveland Browns running backs Nick Chubb and Demetric Felton have tested positive for COVID-19, according to sources. Both players are vaccinated, so they would need two negative tests 24 hours apart in order to come off the Reserve/COVID-19 list and play in Week 10 against the New England Patriots. If Chubb cannot gain clearance before Sunday's game, D'Ernest Johnson would get another shot at the lead-back role for Cleveland with Kareem Hunt (calf) still currently on Injured Reserve. It's a tough blow for Chubb and his fantasy managers, as he's coming off a 137-yard, two-touchdown performance in the Week 9 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. The team's other RB, John Kelly, is also on the COVID-19 list, so Johnson is the only healthy RB on the team's current roster. Johnson would have RB2 upside if Chubb isn't available this weekend.
