Running Back Outlook Week 15
Over Jonathan Taylor’s (RB9) last three contests he’s averaged an impressive 22.8 ppg, not once rushing for less than 90 yards. Since returning from the COVID list in Week 13, Taylor is fantasy’s RB1, averaging 26.5 ppg. Taylor takes on a Houston defense this week that allows the second-most fantasy points to RBs this year. Over their last four games, the Texans have allowed a league-high 771 total yards to the position, as well as six total TDs.
We’ve been banging the table for Cam Akers (RB13) for quite some time now, pegging him as a potential league-winner. Over the past two weeks, he looks viable to live up to that billing. Akers is RB7 since Week 13 and has made Darrell Henderson an afterthought in Los Angeles. The rookie has outsnapped Henderson a whopping 102-25 over his last two games. Akers is set to take on a Jets defense that just allowed 98 total yards and one TD on 15 touches to Chris Carson. Over Akers’ two-game tear, he’s averaged 26.5 touches and 144 yards from scrimmage.
