4 years agoLos Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler will face a tough Atlanta Falcons Defense that is allowing just 67 yards per game in Week 14. Ekeler has been very active since returning in Week 12 from a hamstring and managers can expect that to continue on Sunday. Despite the Falcons tough run defense, they have allowed five receptions and 36 yards per game to opposing backfields and that's where Ekeler is best utilized. Managers shouldn't expect too many much rushing yards for Ekeler, but should expect him to be heavily involved in the pass game. This game should be a back forth battle and Ekeler will be extremely valuable in PPR leagues. Overall, Ekeler should be considered a fringe RB1 in Week 14.--Daniel Burdeen - RotoBaller
