Week 14 is the most stressful weekend of the fantasy football season. For many managers, it’s win-and-in, lose-and-out. For others, playoff seeding, byes, or bragging rights hang in the balance. There are four teams on bye and a wave of injuries shaking up depth charts. As such, the scramble for last-minute running back streamers is underway. Whatever your situation, several under-the-radar backs have emerged with real Week 14 potential.
Ahead of Week 14 of the 2025 NFL Season, it’s time to see which Running Backs are among the last-minute fantasy football streaming options.
Chris Rodriguez Jr is coming off one of the more efficient outings of his young season. He carried the ball 11 times for 41 yards and a touchdown in Washington’s 27–26 overtime loss to Denver. The touchdown salvaged what would have otherwise been a modest fantasy football line. However, Rodriguez did flash physicality and decisiveness as a downhill runner.
There’s a catch, though: Washington’s backfield remains crowded. Rodriguez’s role is not guaranteed from week to week. He has value if you are absolutely desperate for a touchdown-dependent flex option. Expectations, though, must remain modest. Rodriguez is more of an emergency streamer than an ideal Week 14 play. Sometimes, though, that’s exactly what managers need.
Blake Corum made noise in Week 13. He racked up 81 yards and a touchdown on just seven carries. In limited action, Corum looked explosive and fully capable of handling more work should the Rams call his number.
Still, fantasy football managers need to treat him cautiously. Kyren Williams remains the Rams’ lead back. Corum’s usage has fluctuated wildly all season. That said, the matchup this week is intriguing. Arizona has allowed consistent production to opposing backfields. That gives Corum sneaky touchdown potential if the Rams find themselves in scoring position. He’s not a locked-in start. However, he’s a viable high-upside flyer for managers searching for a spark.
Kenneth Gainwell’s Week 13 production had 20 rushing yards on five carries. He also added two catches for 25 yards. That won’t turn heads, but the usage context still matters. With Pittsburgh’s offense sputtering against Buffalo, Gainwell’s opportunities evaporated as the game script shifted dramatically.
Still, in Week 12, Gainwell handled 16 touches. He also displayed strong involvement in the passing game. He continues to operate as the Steelers’ preferred receiving back. In matchups where Pittsburgh is expected to play from behind, that role becomes extremely valuable.
Baltimore’s defense is formidable. However, it has allowed steady production to pass-catching running backs. For PPR managers who need a floor play with a path to six to eight targets, Gainwell is squarely on the streaming radar.
Kyle Monangai has quietly become one of the most consistent flex options in fantasy football. Over his last five games, he’s hit double-digit fantasy points in four. His workload has been steady, his efficiency respectable, and...
