Duke Johnson Takes Over Lead Role, Handles 21 Touches
4 years agoHouston Texans running back Duke Johnson was thrust into the lead role after starter David Johnson (head) sustained a concussion. The former Johnson replaced the latter, putting up 73 scrimmage yards on 21 touches with a rushing score. He didn't look very impressive on the ground, totaling just 2.6 yards per carry, though he salvaged his fantasy day with a touchdown. If David Johnson is unable to go in Week 10, Duke Johnson would likely be looking at another 15-plus touches against the Browns with the backs behind him unproven.
