Royce Freeman Sees 12 Carries In Week 16
3 years agoHouston Texans running back Royce Freeman saw 12 carries in the Texans Week 16 win over the Chargers. Unfortunately, he could only turn it into 34 yards rushing. Freeman got a boosted role after David Johnson (quadriceps) was ruled out. The matchup was as good as it gets, and Freeman was incapable of taking advantage. Unless Johnson and Burkhead both miss time with injuries, Freeman isn't a valuable fantasy asset as the third running back in an offense that usually isn't even close to how explosive they were in the shocking Week 16 win over the Bolts.
