Bobby Rainey, RB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Bobby Rainey is yet another running back who get an upgrade already for Week 2 because of an injury to the starter.

Doug Martin left the Week 1 contest with a leg injury, which is still undisclosed in terms of severity.

Last year, Rainey averaged 18.43 carries for 69.57 yards and 0.57 touchdowns per game over his final 7 contests, but among a 163-yard day and a 127-yard day, he had 4 games with fewer than 40 yards.

Rainey did score a touchdown but also had a fumble in the fourth quarter. Either way, Rainey is a speculation type of recommendation for now. The Rams are far from a pushover defense, but they did allow 186 rushing yards to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 1.

Don't shy away from Rainey if you pick him up and need running back help in Week 2.
