Most Consistent RB of 2024: Top 10 Fantasy Running Back Seasons

Who separated at the top of the 2024 running back board?

The 2024 running back race had a clear leader and a tight chase group. Jahmyr Gibbs of the Detroit Lions finished first among running backs with 363 fantasy points, and Saquon Barkley of the Philadelphia Eagles followed at 349. Bijan Robinson of the Atlanta Falcons (340 points) and Derrick Henry of the Baltimore Ravens (336 points) kept the gap small, but nobody caught the Detroit Lions' back.

The top 10 fantasy RB seasons of 2024, ranked

| Rank | Player | Team | Games | Points | Points per game | Best week | | 1 | Jahmyr Gibbs | Detroit Lions | 17 | 363 | 21 | 46 | | 2 | Saquon Barkley | Philadelphia Eagles | 17 | 349 | 21 | 46 | | 3 | Bijan Robinson | Atlanta Falcons | 17 | 340 | 20 | 31 | | 4 | Derrick Henry | Baltimore Ravens | 17 | 336 | 20 | 36 | | 5 | De'Von Achane | Miami Dolphins | 17 | 300 | 18 | 32 | | 6 | Josh Jacobs | Green Bay Packers | 17 | 293 | 17 | 29 | | 7 | Kyren Williams | Los Angeles Rams | 17 | 272 | 16 | 32 | | 8 | James Cook | Buffalo Bills | 17 | 267 | 16 | 28 | | 9 | Alvin Kamara | New Orleans Saints | 17 | 265 | 16 | 44 | | 10 | Chuba Hubbard | Carolina Panthers | 16 | 240 | 15 | 32 |

Where the 2024 drop-off sits

The sharpest break in this year's table comes after Derrick Henry. The top four running backs all finished at 336 fantasy points or better, then De'Von Achane of the Miami Dolphins lands at 300. From Josh Jacobs of the Green Bay Packers (293) down through Alvin Kamara of the New Orleans Saints (265), the points per game column reads 17, 16, 16 and 16, a flat tier where total points separated the finishers more than weekly production did.

The per-game column also disagrees with the total column at the very top. Jahmyr Gibbs and Saquon Barkley both posted 21 fantasy points per game, so the season title between them was decided by total points, not by week-to-week scoring level.

Which best weeks stood out in 2024?

Two running backs reached a best week of 46: Jahmyr Gibbs and Saquon Barkley, the same two names that dominate the total column. Alvin Kamara's best week of 44 stands out further down the list, larger than the best week posted by any runner who finished ahead of him except those two. Chuba Hubbard's best week of 32 matched the top single week of both De'Von Achane and Kyren Williams, a notable mark for the number 10 finisher.

Bijan Robinson's best week of 31 is the smallest top single game among the top five, which fits a season built on steady scoring rather than one dominant afternoon. Derrick Henry's best week of 36 sits between those profiles.
