Description: Bengals running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis racked up 63 yards on 11 carries Saturday in a loss to Houston. | Insight: Green-Ellis missed last week's regular season finale against Baltimore after tweaking his hamstring in warmups. The injury didn't seem to affect the Law Firm's play on Saturday as Green-Ellis averaged a very respectable 5.7 yards per carry. | | |

Description: Cincinnati halfback BenJarvus Green-Ellis (hamstring) was a limited participant for both Wednesday and Thursday's practices, but a full participant on Friday and should be ready to go in Saturday's AFC Wild Card Playoff against Houston. | Insight: Green-Ellis put together an excellent second half of the season, rushing for 557 yards over his final six games. The Texans ranked seventh against the run yielding just 97.5 ypg. so the going is likely to be tough. | | |

Description: Cincinnati halfback BenJarvus Green-Ellis, who tweaked his hamstring during warmups for Week 17, was a limited participant for both Wednesday and Thursday's practices, but should be ready to go in Saturday's AFC Wild Card Playoff against Houston. | Insight: Green-Ellis put together an excellent second half of the season, rushing for 557 yards over his final six games. The Texans ranked seventh against the run yielding just 97.5 ypg. so the going is likely to be tough. | | |

Description: Cincinnati halfback BenJarvus Green-Ellis tweaked his hamstring during warmups and didn't play last Sunday against the Ravens, but practiced on Wednesday and should be ready to go in Saturday's AFC Wild Card Playoff against Houston. | Insight: Green-Ellis put together an excellent second half of the season, rushing for 557 yards over his final six games. The Texans ranked seventh against the run yielding just 97.5 ypg. so the going is likel to be tough. | | |

Description: Cincinnati halfback BenJarvus Green-Ellis tweaked his hamstring during warmups and won't play Sunday against the Ravens. | Insight: If the Bengals hadn't already clinched a playoff berth, Green-Ellis would probably be out there. But with Cincy's fate as the AFC's sixth seed already sealed, the Bengals can afford to rest him this week. Backup Brian Leonard should see most of the carries Sunday against Baltimore. | | |
| 12/23/2012 5:43:00 PM |
Description: Bengals running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis ran into a wall Sunday against the Steelers. He didn't even pick up one yard per carry, settling for 14 yards on 15 rushes in the game. | Insight: Green-Ellis has carved up inferior opponents -- Kansas City, Oakland, San Diego, Dallas, Philadelphia -- for 543 yards and three touchdowns over his last five games but a strong run defense shut him down Sunday. | | |
| Hot | 12/9/2012 5:12:00 PM |
Description: Bengals running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis ran for 89 yards on 12 carries Sunday against Dallas and has 437 over his last four games. | Insight: Green-Ellis only had 537 rushing yards in his first nine games. Fantasy owners have every reason to keep rolling with the Cincinnati running back. | | |
| Hot | 12/2/2012 8:04:00 PM |
Description: Bengals running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis powered his way to 118 rushing yards Sunday against the Chargers. | Insight: Green-Ellis has rushed for over 100 yards in three straight games. He's on pace to finish the year with 1,176 yards rushing, which would be over 100 yards higher than his previous career-high set in 2010 as a member of the New England Patriots. | | |
| 11/25/2012 5:21:00 PM |
Description: Cincinnati halfback BenJarvus Green-Ellis ran for 129 yards and a touchdown on 19 carries Sunday, his second consecutive 100-yard game. | Insight: Oakland has been kind to opposing rushers this season (remember Doug Martin?), and Green-Ellis was the latest back to take advantage of that generosity. He'll have a much tougher matchup in Week 13 against San Diego. | | |
| 11/18/2012 7:20:00 PM |
Description: Cincinnati halfback BenJarvus Green-Ellis enjoyed his first 100-yard rushing game of the season Sunday in a win over Kansas City. | Insight: He also scored a touchdown, his fourth of the season. He certainly hasn't been as prolific for the Bengals as he was during his tenure in New England but you could definitely do a lot worse than Green-Ellis for a flex/RB2. | | |
| 11/11/2012 11:37:00 AM |
Description: Bengals running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis returned from illness to practice Friday and is active for Sunday's game against the New York Giants. | Insight: The Giants are yielding 132.7 ypg on the ground making "The Law Firm" a solid fantasy option in Week 10. | | |
| 11/9/2012 2:44:00 PM |
Description: Bengals running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis returned from illness to practice Friday and is expected to play Sunday against the New York Giants. | Insight: The Giants are yielding 132.7 ypg on the ground making "The Law Firm" a solid fantasy option in Week 10. | | |
| 11/4/2012 6:03:00 PM |
Description: After a four-game touchdown drought Bengals running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis finally returned to the end zone on Sunday. | Insight: Don't get too excited. Green-Ellis only had 56 yards on 17 carries. He still hasn't rushed for 100 yards in a game this season and is probably a flex option at best. | | |
| Cold | 10/22/2012 10:57:00 AM |
Description: Cincinnati halfback BenJarvus Green-Ellis produced another medicore outing Sunday against Pittsburgh, finishing with just 69 yards on 18 carries. | Insight: Green-Ellis was a touchdown machine last year in New England, scoring 11 times on 181 carries. This year the Law Firm has just two scores on 125 touches and hasn't registered a touchdown since Week 3's win against the Redskins. Perhaps he'll show more life after the bye week. Cincinnati's next game is at home against Denver two Sundays from now. | | |
| 10/9/2012 12:58:00 PM |
Description: The loss of backup running back Bernard Scott isn't likely to change the workload for Bengals starting running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis. | Insight: Scott had a total of eight carries this season for 35 yards. Green-Ellis isn't matching the production we saw from Cedric Benson in this same offense last season and fantasy owners aren't happy. The "Law Firm" hasn't posted double-digit fantasy points since Week 2. | | |
| 10/7/2012 4:19:00 PM |
Description: Bengals running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis had a terrible fantasy day against the Dolphins in Week 5, rushing for just 14 yards on nine carries. | Insight: Bernard Scott outcarried Green-Ellis 5-to-3 and rushed for 40 yards early in the game before leaving with a knee injury. Green-Ellis may hold onto the top running back job only because Scott cannot stay healthy; he's certainly doesn't deserve the role based on his performance this season. | | |
| 9/30/2012 7:20:00 PM |
Description: Bengals running back BenJarvus Green-Ellis fumbled twice, losing one, Sunday against the Jaguars one week after fumbling for the first time in his career. Green-Ellis finished with a pedestrian 82 yards on 26 carries while Andy Dalton vultured a one-yard touchdown. | Insight: How quickly can a strength become a question mark? In two weeks, Green-Ellis has gone from one of the more sure-handed running backs in the league to someone with butter fingers. At least he's getting a ton of carries, but that will change if he doesn't hold onto the ball. | | |
| 9/23/2012 4:55:00 PM |
Description: For the first time in his career, BenJarvus Green-Ellis let the ball slip out of his grasp for a fumble. He finished with a lackluster 38 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries. | Insight: Green-Ellis had his worst game this season Sunday against the Redskins but at least he got in the end zone to salvage the day. The running back came into Week 3 with zero career fumbles on 549 carries and 30 catches. Of course, his first fumble ever was lost to Washington so it goes against his final fantasy line in most leagues. | | |
| 9/17/2012 11:45:00 AM |
Description: Bengals halfback BenJarvus Green-Ellis had 21 carries for 75 yards and 30 yards receiving in another workhorse day for the Cincinnati running back. | Insight: Green-Ellis is averaging 21.5 touches-per-game and 100 combined yards from scrimmage. He just needs to start finding the end zone to become a solid RB2. | | |
| 9/10/2012 10:47:00 PM |
Description: Bengals halfback BenJarvus Green-Ellis carried the rock 18 times for 91 yards and a touchdown Monday night in his team's 44-13 loss to the Ravens. | Insight: Green-Ellis didn't see the ball much in the second half because Cincinnati had to air it out but he still managed to put up solid numbers across the board. Green-Ellis probably won't see quite as much action once Bernard Scott returns to the lineup but for now, he's a solid RB2 option and maybe even an RB1 depending on how many teams are in your league. | | |
