BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 14% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: He was a waiver wire darling last week, but the team opted to go with Damien Williams as the lead back. However, this past weekend they moved back to Demercado. He led the team's backfield in snaps, playing 53 of the team's 66 snaps. Williams played 12. Based on playtime, Demercado was a bell-cow. He ran 28 routes on the team's 38 dropbacks and earned five targets. No other Arizona running back earned a single one. He also led the backfield in carries with 13. Williams finished with just one. He had a stranglehold on the snaps, routes, targets, and carries in the backfield this weekend. He finished with 58 rushing yards, four receptions, and 17 receiving yards.
It's hard to trust this backfield moving forward considering the 180 they made over the past two games. After being the primary back in Week 5 after starter James Conner left with an injury, Demercado operated as the No. 3 back behind Williams and Keaontay Ingram in Week 6. Now that Demercado was the clear lead back this past weekend, it's hard to know what the rotation will be next weekend. However, assuming this rotation continues, Demercado should be viewed as an RB3 with RB2 upside due to the heavy workload he received this past weekend.
