Doug Martin The Clear No. 2 Running Back This Season
6 years agoOakland Raiders running back Doug Martin has his role set coming into Week 1 versus the Rams. Martin was brought in during the offseason to back up Marshawn Lynch, but we don't know what role he will play in the offense. Martin saw limited action in the preseason with only seven carries over two games, but averaged a solid 3.8 yards per carry. He is not a passing down back, which means no third-down work for him, making him a risky fantasy option due to lack of potential volume.
