Running Backs Age 29 or Older

The following 40 running backs will be 29 or older on opening day, Friday, September 4, 2009. Youth is a factor in long-term fantasy football performance. Older players are less valuable than normal in keeper and dynasty leagues. Older players with more than 200 rushing attempts last year could be at a higher risk for injury.
