Jonathan Taylor Faces Difficult Test In Week 5
4 years agoIndianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor will not have an easy Week 5 against the Browns. The Browns are allowing just a little over 90 rushing yards per game and holding ball carriers to less than four yards per carry. This does not bode well for Taylor, who is averaging just 3.8 yards per carry on the season. Taylor is the clear No. 1 option in the backfield but shared more carries last week against the Bears, seeing just 46 percent of the team's offensive snaps. However, he is still averaging a little over 18 carries per game since being named the starter, so he remains a viable fantasy option. He is still an RB2 this week if he can pick up more yards per carry and find the end zone.
