Commanders Elevate Derrick Gore For Week 16

Washington Commanders running back Derrick Gore was signed to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game against the New York Jets. He had been on the practice squad, but Washington had a clear need at running back after ruling out Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) and demoting Jonathan Williams (concussion). With that said, Gore will operate as the Commanders' No. 3 running back and lacks fantasy appeal at the moment.

Saints Cut Jordan Howard, Derrick Gore

The New Orleans Saints cut running backs Jordan Howard and Derrick Gore from their roster on Tuesday. The team has been without veteran Mark Ingram II for the past two games, so these transactions could indicate he is close to returning. Ingram was expected to miss three to four weeks from the injury he suffered on October 30th, meaning he's nearing the earlier part of that timeline. Neither Howard nor Gore has made an impact this season. Howard has only one carry for one yard, while Gore has yet to touch the ball in 2022. Fantasy managers could look to stash Ingram II in case anything happens to Alvin Kamara down the stretch.

Chiefs Waive Derrick Gore

The Chiefs waived running back Derrick Gore (thumb) with an injury settlement on Thursday. The 27-year-old fractured his thumb during a preseason matchup versus Washington and was subsequently placed on the injured reserve list. Assuming he clears waivers and enters free agency, there's a chance he could rejoin the roster once healthy. Gore, who had 256 yards and two touchdowns off 51 carries (11 games) last season as a rookie, should draw interest from at least a few clubs. Yet, his fantasy appeal in any format outside of dynasty leagues is currently non-existent. However, he may pop up this year as a streaming option if he's fortunate enough to find work.

Derrick Gore Leads With 12 Carries In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs backup running back Derrick Gore saw an expanded role in Week 16 with Clyde Edwards-Helaire (collarbone) exiting early versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. Gore was quiet before CEH went down, but would finish the contest with 12 carries for 43 yards and three receptions for 61 yards. Much of Gore's work came with CEH sidelined and the score very much out of reach for the Steelers, but managers should still note that he had one more carry than Darrel Williams. More should be known on CEH's status ahead of a Week 17 matchup versus the Cincinnati Bengals, but Gore is worth stashing with the understanding that Williams would likely be the lead back in the backfield if Edwards-Helaire is unable to suit up.

Derrick Gore Has Big Day In Week 14

Kansas City Chiefs running back Derrick Gore put together a nice performance in a Week 14 victory versus the Las Vegas Raiders. The Chiefs jumped ahead early in the contest and Gore fell one carry short of leading the backfield. Leading the Chiefs backfield with 67 yards on nine carries, Gore also scored a touchdown and chipped in with a pair of receptions for 23 yards. Despite the nice performance, much of his volume on the afternoon could be attributed to the game getting out of hand early. Moving forward, Gore is still likely to play behind Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Darrel Williams, but he could be of use to managers seeking an insurance policy for CEH. Next up for Gore will be a Week 15 matchup versus the Los Angeles Chargers.

Tyrann Mathieu Active, Derrick Gore Out

Despite being a late addition to the injury report, Kansas City Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. He'll help the Chiefs defense, though there's no reason to play the Chiefs defense in fantasy against a high-scoring offense like Dallas. Running back Derrick Gore is inactive with Clyde Edwards-Helaire returning from Injured Reserve, which puts an end to Gore's increased usage in KC. He can be dropped in redraft leagues.

Derrick Gore - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Kansas City Chiefs running back Derrick Gore saw his first extended action of the year in Week 8 and made the most of his opportunity with 11 carries for 48 yards and one touchdown. Jerick McKinnon was expected to be the back up to Darrel Williams, but it was Gore that got the opportunity and made the most of it. Heading into Week 9 versus the Green Bay Packers, Gore should once again be expected to backup Williams. The Packers defense has had a strong season versus the run and are allowing just 77 yards per game on the ground, but have given up seven rushing touchdowns on the year. Williams remains the lead dog in the Chiefs backfield, but Gore is the next man up and should see some opportunities in Week 9. Gore can be considered as a flex option in the deepest of leagues, but there should be other players with more opportunity to help managers in Week 9.

Derrick Gore Finds End Zone In Week 8

Kansas City Chiefs running back Derrick Gore came out of nowhere to put together a nice performance in a Week 8 victory versus the New York Giants. Having just one carry on the season entering tonight, Gore would finish with 11 carries for 48 yards and a touchdown. Despite the nice game, Darrel Williams still saw plenty of action out of the Chiefs backfield. With Clyde Edwards-Helaire (knee) being eligible to return from injured reserve in Week 9, Williams remains the running back to roster. Moving forward, Gore is nothing more than a dart throw in the deepest of leagues.
