Rob Kelley Expected To Be Primary Backup
6 years agoWashington Redskins running back Rob Kelley is expected to serve as the immediate backup to veteran Adrian Peterson in the team's backfield. While the signing of Peterson splashed cold water on Kelley's overall value, there is still some fantasy appeal here. Peterson is 33 years old, and he hasn't played a full 16-game schedule since the 2015 season. Kelley is viewed as a player who can be an every-down back like Peterson, perhaps the only other back on the roster to fit that description. He is a decent handcuff to AP, and a worthwhile RB5 if you have deeper rosters in standard fantasy play.
