5 years agoWashington Redskins running back Chris Thompson has not been operating in the pass-catching role that once made him a valuable fantasy play in PPR formats, and now he's run out of time for the 2019 season. Thompson has seen just 17 targets in four games since returning from injury in the first week of December, and the only potential boon to his value in Week 17 is that Case Keenum will finish out the season at quarterback. Thompson was utilized more often early in the season when Keenum ran the offense. In any case, it would be a blind roll of the dice to expect a one-game turnaround in the final week of the season. Thompson simply hasn't shown you what you need to trust him, and should not be considered a safe flex play.--Chris O'Reilly
