6 years agoDetroit Lions running back Kerryon Johnson faces off against a tough Miami defense in Week 7. After leaving the Week 5 game against the Packers with an ankle injury, he did not return. Having a bye week to recover, Johnson gets to face a Dolphins defense that allows 118.2 yards per game. He's had almost identical carry counts with LeGarrette Blount in every game this season, but Johnson has clearly been the more productive back rushing for over 220 yards in the past three games. While Blount does steal short yardage and goal-line carries, the rookie is the playmaker in the backfield. Make sure to monitor his injury as the week progresses but all systems should be a go. Slot Johnson in as your flex in Week 7.--Steve Janik - RotoBaller
