Fantasy Soccer: Week 1 of Corridor Touches for 5 Backfield Key Divisions

Upon entering the 2025 NFL season, there were many questions about Backfield divisions and what could mean for fantasy football. For some teams, we were not exactly sure how the runners would be deployed, instead, throwing some darts in the drafts and waiting for that player to emerge at the end of the day. It is only week 1 and there is still a lot of football to play, but we can gather useful information of fantasy soccer based on touches for some RB committees.

Next, we will demolish the touches and how to approach these players who advance.

Washington commanders

Upon entering week 1, we all ask ourselves how the commanders would shake. The team decided to move from Brian Robinson Jr. Before the start of the season and we thought it would be a 3 heads by Austin Ekeler, Jacory Croskey-Merritt and Chris Rodríguez Jr., Rodriguez was a healthy healthy for week 1 versus the giants. Then, EKELER and JCM divided most of the work into RB, with the QB Jayden Daniels, of course, also obtaining their positions, in fact, a maximum of 11, in fact. Washington also involved WR Debo Samuel Mr. with a 19 -yard TD by land. Jeremy Mcnichols also had a brief appearance and obtained a work in the garbage time with four hawks for 25 yards.

It is not clear if C-Rod will take action in week 2. For now, it seems to be a field division between Ekeler and Croskey-Merritt, the veteran who obtains a passenger game work (3 catches for 31 yards) and the rookie watching the work of the goal line. Croskey-Merritt was clearly the most talented, ending with 10 haules for 82 yards (a long 42 yards fever). Daniels will also obtain his own, so it does not seem that RB will obtain a great volume in this offensive, especially if we see more Rushes Debo.

Pittsburgh Steelers

The Jets and Steelers possibly played the most exciting offensive exhibition on Sunday. The Pittsburgh field offered some options for fantasy in 2025, mainly Jaylen Warren and the rookie Kaleb Johnson. Warren was the clear advantage with 13 total touches, but he was not the rookie Johnson behind him. Instead, Kenneth Gainwell was almost in a 50-50 division in terms of touches with Warren. Johnson finished the game with just a hauling, which is bad news for managers who expected to have a prominent role in the race game for the Steelers. Gavewell will be worth taking a look as an exemption wire in deeper formats this week.

Cleveland Browns

The Browns field will look different in week 2 if Quinshon Judkins can return to the field. But for now, it seems that there is a clear advantage in the Backfield field for Cleveland. That is the rookie companion Dylan Sampson, who walked through the Browns with 20 touches on the team in his overwhelming defeat against the Bengals in week 1. With Sampson leading the way, Jerome Ford was relegated to the change of rhythm and was very ineffective with six hauling for only eight yards. Raheim Sanders also saw three haunts and scored.

We could see that Ford was eliminated once Judkins has returned and up to date. Sampson was widely used in air game with eight trapped for 64 yards. It is not clear if Sanders would continue to see the work of the target line once Judkins has returned. The Browns field could be transformed into a two -headed dragon with both rookies.

Arizona cardinals

Are we finally going to see someone to advance James Conner in a rear field? Conner is always seen as the veteran does not select in drafts, a reliable setback that will do the work as his RB2. But in week 1, we saw what Conner was referring during the training camp, which Trey Benson could be ready to be an RB1. While Conner surpassed Benson 16-9 in his victory of week 1 over the Saints, it was the second year that was more productive. Benson had impressive 8.6 yards for hauling in eight haules for 69 yards. He also added a capture, while Conner had four trapped for only five yards, although he did scored for the air. Most of Benson’s production was in a 52 -yard corridor, but that type of explosiveness is something that is missing Conner at this time of his career.

As a result, we could see Benson slowly overcome Conner in this field during the season; For now, it seems that Arizona’s field could become a true division.

Jacksonville Jaguars

Many pointed out the disappearance of Travis Etienne Jr. after the bust last season. It seems that we were wrong to think that Etienne was cooked. In week 1 and the debut of the new chief coen coen coach, Etienne was leading the field for Jacksonville for a wide margin. Some predicted some type of three -headed monster that would present Etienne, Tank Bigsby and Bhayshul Tuten. Instead, Etienne led the way with 16 hauls (19 touches), with a total of 156 yards. Bigsby did not have a touch until the second half (5 carriers for 12 yards), while Tutor was also quite quiet (3 hauls for 11 yards). The seventh ride selection of the rookie, Lequint Allen Jr., also saw some touches.

The Jaguars were great most of the game, but Tutan and Allen obtained some work in the first half. If you written Bigsby and Tutan in the hope that they will become viable beginnings, that is not seen in the first game. Etienne could return to the fantasy rb form of Top Fantasy; He had approached consecutive seasons of at least 1,500 scrimmage yards in 2022 and 2023 before last year failure. After week 1, it looks like the field of Etienne.
