Spencer Ware Fantasy Stats

The Las Vegas Raiders are bringing in veteran running back Spencer Ware for a visit. The Raiders are expecting Josh Jacobs (knee), who missed the Week 13 win over the Jets, to miss another game, so it's no surprise that they are looking for reinforcements at the position behind Devontae Booker, Jalen Richard and Theo Riddick. Ware hasn't seen the field in an NFL game in 2020 after seeing only 17 carries for 51 yards in three games for the Chiefs in 2019. In his five seasons in the NFL, the sixth-round pick of the Seahawks in 2013, has 357 carries for 1,631 yards (4.6 yards per carry) and 11 touchdowns. He's also caught 64 passes for 698 yards and two additional touchdowns. If he signs with the Raiders, he won't be fantasy relevant.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (shoulder) was not able to get much going against the Chicago Bears in Week 16. He went down in the fourth quarter due to a shoulder injury, but wasn't able well before that. He rushed five times for 14 yards and caught two passes for 22 yards through the air. Damien Williams handled most of the carries, while veteran LeSean McCoy was a healthy scratch. It's unclear whether or not Ware will suit up against the Chargers in Week 17. He belongs on the waiver wire in most formats regardless if he plays in the regular season finale.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware was signed just a few weeks ago and has already made an impact on the field. Ware wasn't able to do enough on the field to warrant ownership in basically any formats. Damien Williams (ribs) return for the Week 16 matchup in Chicago basically kills any fantasy value Ware might have gained. It's unclear if Ware will be in the Chiefs' gameplan going forward. Williams, LeSean McCoy, and Darwin Thompson should be ahead of him on the depth chart. He'll be someone to avoid in basically every format for the Week 16 contest versus the Bears.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware was signed by the team roughly two weeks ago and is already making an impact on the field. Ware rushed seven times for 26 yards in the victory over the Denver Broncos. However, the Chiefs have a running back committee, so Ware has handcuffed fantasy value. Both LeSean McCoy and Darwin Thompson are going to see carries each week. He's not someone worth owning in basically any format. He'll have a tough matchup against the Bears Defense in Week 16.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware was signed by the organization earlier this week after multiple injuries in the backfield. Damien Williams (ribs) is week to week, while Darrel Williams (hamstring) is done for the season. Ware was with the Chiefs in 2015-2018, but will battle with LeSean McCoy and Darwin Thompson for playing time. Ware surprisingly made his season debut on Sunday, despite being signed just a few days before the game. He rushed five times for 11 yards in the Week 14 victory over the Patriots. He's going to be stuck in a running back committee, so fantasy owners shouldn't bother with Ware. He could be worth a look in the deepest of leagues, but he likely won't see more than a handful of carries per game.

Indianapolis Colts running back Spencer Ware was expected to fight for the third or fourth running back spot, but, after struggling with an injury throughout training camp, the Colts placed him on the Reserved/Physically Unable to Perform list on Friday. He wasn't guaranteed a roster spot behind starter Marlon Mack and backups Nyheim Hines and Jordan Wilkins, so this will make it even more difficult for him to maintain that position. At a minimum, he'll be out until Week 6.

The Indianapolis Colts signed free-agent running back Spencer Ware to an undisclosed deal on Tuesday. In other moves, the team waived safety Isaiah Johnson and defensive tackle DeShawn Williams and released wide receiver James Wright. The 27-year-old Ware had impressive stretches in his time with the Chiefs. He broke out in 2016 when he took over the starting duties and ran 214 times for 921 yards (4.3 average) with three touchdowns on the ground while adding 33 catches for 447 yards and two receiving TDs. He'll add depth to a crowded backfield that includes Marlon Mack, Nyheim Hines, Jordan Wilkins and Jonathan Williams. Ware is unlikely to see much action unless injuries occur ahead of him.

Free-agent running back Spencer Ware, who had 246 rushing yards with the Chiefs last year, visited with the New York Jets on Wednesday. The Jets are looking for depth behind Le'Veon Bell but also still have Trenton Cannon and Elijah McGuire. Ware has shown flashes before with KC when he's had opportunities, but he'd be buried on the depth chart if he landed in New York.

The Indianapolis Colts hosted free-agent running back Spencer Ware for a visit on Tuesday. With Indy's backfield being led by Marlon Mack and with Nyheim Hines in a pass-catching role and Jordan Wilkins providing depth, the Colts would be a poor landing spot for Ware from a fantasy perspective. Ware had his best year with the Chiefs in 2016, rushing 214 times for 921 yards (4.3 yards per carry) and three touchdowns. He also added 33 receptions for 447 yards and two scores that year. Ware's 2019 fantasy value will be tied to wherever he surfaces.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (hamstring) practiced in full on Thursday after being limited in Wednesday's session. Ware sat out the divisional round after being limited in practice all week, but it looks like he's set to return for the AFC Championship against the Patriots on Sunday. He has been out since early December and will surely be the backup to Damien Williams if he's active, giving him limited fantasy upside this weekend.
