BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 52% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Roschon Johnson missed Week 6 due to a concussion, but that shouldn't stop fantasy managers from making him a priority add this week. Starting running back Khalil Herbert was placed on IR prior to their contest this past weekend, meaning he'll miss at least the next three games. D'Onta Foreman received 15 of the 26 running back carries this past weekend. With Justin Fields possibly out for Week 7, the Chicago offense could become very run-oriented.

Prior to Herbert's injury, Johnson worked ahead of Foreman. This likely means that once Johnson is healthy, he'll operate as the 1A in the Chicago backfield. The loss of Fields, while it could mean the Chicago offense becomes more run-oriented, the offense could also become less effective. As long as Johnson returns to the field in Week 7, he should be viewed as an RB3 and should be a priority add for any team hurting at running back.
