Cincinnati Bengals

Jeremy Hill/Giovani Bernard (Running Back): Hill finally had his day as he has caused fantasy owners to rip their hair out all season long. Hill powered his way into the end zone twice for 2 big touchdowns. Hill's yardage was not that impressive however he did get the goal line carries which are incredibly important. Hill finished the game with 19 rushing attempts, 31 rushing yards, and two touchdowns. Bernard on the other hand really stuck to his backup role and only carried the ball 14 times. Bernard gained 33 yards and caught all 4 of his targets through the air for 18 yards.

A.J. Green (Wide Receiver): Fantasy players could not anticipate such a low scoring game for Green who really laid an egg this week. There were so many factors that just took Green out of the game. The game was out of hand, the 49ers could not stop the run, and Andy Dalton was on the sidelines. Green hauled in 1 out of 3 of his targets for 37 yards. It appears he could have re-aggravated a back injury after he left the game but it could have also been that the Bengals wanted to rest the talented wide receiver for week 16 and beyond.

 

San Francisco 49ers

Shaun Draughn (Running Back): Draughn suffered a minor knee injury in this game and should be available for week 16. Draughn had a slow day against a stout Bengals run defense. He finished the game with 9 rushing attempts that gained 38 yards and he caught his only target for 4 yards.
