BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 27% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: If you’re playing in Week 17 and you’re looking for a running back to potentially start, Dion Lewis is someone to keep an eye on. The biggest factor here is Derrick Henry and his hamstring. While he is expected to return in Week 17 against the Texans, the Titans are in a win-and-in scenario in regards to the playoffs.
The matchup is pretty good as the Texans are towards the bottom of the league in points allowed to opposing running backs. With the Titans looking at a game they must win to get into the playoffs, I wouldn’t be shocked if Henry is on the field. If Henry does play, then I wouldn’t touch Lewis unless you’re extremely desperate. However, if Henry does end up missing time, Lewis is someone who will be an RB2 by default based on the volume and the matchup.
