BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 26% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts running back Jordan Wilkins continues to reside among available options in the majority of leagues, while also maintaining a presence among the weekly suggestions in this column. Even though most potential owners have not been enthusiastic about adding him, continued attrition by expected starters, should combine with the return of bye weeks to make Wilkins a viable option for your rosters.
Indianapolis still does not possess a clear-cut RB1, and Marlon Mack's protracted hamstring issue should entrench Wilkins and fellow rookie Nyheim Hines into ongoing roles that should keep both backs highly involved in the Colts' offensive attack. Through three contests, Wilkins has accumulated 120 yards on 30 attempts (4.0 YPC), while supplementing that production with 25 yards as a receiver. Those are not eye-opening numbers, but Wilkins’ workload should be sustainable, with prospects of expanding as the season progresses.
