Texans Could Lean On Marlon Mack
2 years agoHouston Texans running back Marlon Mack could see a heavy workload to begin the season. The 26-year-old wasn't able to do much on the field last season. To be fair, the Indianapolis Colts didn't have much of a need for Mack and barely used him. In 2019, Mack rushed for more than 1,000 yards, so the talent is there. Aaron Reiss of The Athletic believes that the Texans are going to lean on Mack early in the season. That could be true with the Texans not having much depth at running back. The assumption is that rookie Dameon Pierce will eventually work his way into the mix. However, the Texans could ease Pierce into things, so Mack could take on a heavy workload. Now, fantasy managers will need to see if the Texans' offensive line is strong enough to actually functionally run the ball.
