BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB2
ANALYSIS: Fantasy managers should consider starting Zack Moss in Week 3 against the Commanders, especially as a lower-end RB2 option.
While Moss's Week 2 stat line of 12 carries for 34 yards wasn’t impressive, his 80% snap count shows that he is firmly entrenched as the Colts’ lead back. Volume is key in fantasy football, and Moss's high usage gives him a strong foundation for a bounce-back performance.
The Commanders’ defense has shown vulnerabilities against the run, making this a favorable matchup for Moss to find more success on the ground. Even though he may not be a top-tier RB2, his snap count and role make him a viable option for fantasy managers needing running back depth.
Zack Moss vs. Chase Brown:
Snaps: Moss (74%), Brown (25%)
Rush attempts: Moss (21), Brown (7)
Targets: Moss (5), Brown (3)Not a 1A/1B situation, Moss is THE running back, y'all, and you sure would think some solid production is on the way vs. WSH and CAR these next two weeks.

In addition to his heavy workload, Moss’s role in the red zone enhances his chances of scoring, which can provide a solid fantasy floor.
While he may be considered a lower-end RB2 due to his lack of explosive plays, the potential for increased touches and a favorable game script against Washington makes him a solid start in Week 3.
His volume and goal-line opportunities provide the upside to justify him in your lineup, especially for managers looking for a reliable option in deeper leagues.
