3 years agoHouston Texans running back David Johnson could be the lead back heading into Week 15. Rex Burkhead was ruled out earlier in the week despite returning to practice on Thursday. Johnson is in line to be the lead back, though he would cede some work to Royce Freeman. The matchup is fairly neutral against the Jaguars 13th-ranked rush defense in DVOA. Furthermore, Johnson has only managed 3.1 yards per carry on the season. The only reason to have Johnson in your lineup is if your lineup is being decimated by COVID or injuries.--Jacob Taylor
