BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 30% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Seattle Seahawks running back Rashaad Penny ripped off a 20-yard touchdown run and averaged a hefty nine yards per carry against the Niners. Reports that Penny had earned more playing time were a bit misleading though. He carried the ball seven times for 65 yards and wasn't targeted in the passing game.
Relative to the other backs, he did nearly double Mike Davis' workload and starter Chris Carson only touched it 13 times. Penny has the physical tools, he just needs to gain his coaches' trust a bit more each week. It's doubtful he sees much more work or is able to rip off many big runs against the Vikings next week, so he remains a bench stash only as long as Carson is healthy.
