Benny Snell Jr. A Solid Flex Option If James Conner Sits
4 years agoPittsburgh Steelers running back Benny Snell Jr. saw the majority of the backfield work for his team in Week 12 with James Conner on the reserve/COVID-19 list last week after testing positive for the virus. Although the team has yet to comment on Conner's status for Week 13, he is looking unlikely to play against the Washington Football Team. If Conner sits, Snell will get another turn as Pittsburgh's lead back on Monday evening. It's not a great matchup, however, as Washington's run defense has been solid this year, allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points per game and ranking 13th in run-defense DVOA. Fantasy gamers can treat Snell as a high-end flex option if Conner remains inactive.
