Week 16 of the 2024 fantasy football season features a full slate of 16 games with all 32 NFL teams in action. This means that managers will have all available running backs to choose from for their starting lineups in this round of the fantasy playoffs. For those debating between Breece Hall, Jerome Ford, and Chuba Hubbard, here's which one is the best pick.
Is Breece Hall a good fantasy pick in Week 16?
Breece Hall is having a solid 2024 fantasy football season for the New York Jets, currently ranking as the overall RB16 this year. He has also finished among the top 20 weekly running backs in eight of his 13 games, demonstrating his consistency.

Up next for Hall is a Week 16 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams' mediocre defense. He set a season-low last week by totaling just 11 touches, so he will be looking to get back to his usual workload of averaging 17 touches per game.
Is Jerome Ford a good fantasy pick in Week 16?
Jerome Ford lost most of his value in fantasy football when Nick Chubb returned from an injury for the Cleveland Browns. His upside has returned again ahead of Week 16 after Chubb suffered another season-ending injury last week.
In his expanded workload following Chubb's exit last week, Ford turned in a season-best RB8 finish. This gives him a bright outlook ahead of his matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals' defense which has severely struggled this season.
Is Chuba Hubbard a good fantasy pick in Week 16?
Chuba Hubbard has been a reliable fantasy football running back this year, currently ranking as the overall RB14 with nine weekly finishes as the RB22 or better. He continues to be the featured back for the Carolina Panthers and his role appears safe after rookie Jonathon Brroks recently suffered another knee injury.
His workload has been extremely consistent this season with at least 17 touches in 11 of his past 12 games. All of this makes him an intriguing lineup in a relatively favorable matchup against the Arizona Cardinals' defense.
Should I start Breece Hall, Jerome Ford or Chuba Hubbard in Week 16 fantasy football?
Chuba Hubbard is the recommended running back to use in Week 16 fantasy football over Breece Hall and Jerome Ford. His consistent output this year and solid matchup this week are among the reasons why he is the preferred pick.
Sportskeeda's Who Should I Start tool predicts that Hubbard will score 3.5 additional fantasy points than Hall and 4.4 more than Ford. He has the highest yardage expectations and is the most likely to score a touchdown, clearly making him the best option of the trio.
