BALLER MOVE: Start 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB36
ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts running back Trey Sermon was a popular waiver wire target last week. Jonathan Taylor missed the Week 5 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars with a high-ankle sprain, giving Sermon his first start this season. The veteran running back had 10 rushing attempts for 38 yards and a touchdown last week.

More importantly, Sermon had an impactful role in the passing game. He had six receptions on six targets for 25 receiving yards, finishing fourth on the team in targets last week. Hopefully, Taylor can play this week against the Tennessee Titans.
However, Sermon would be a top-24 running back if Taylor misses another game. Meanwhile, he isn’t startable in any format if the superstar plays. Unfortunately, there is a chance the Colts are without their top two running backs on Sunday.
Sermon missed practice on Wednesday with a collarbone injury but returned on Thursday. If Taylor and Sermon can’t play, Tyler Goodson would be the next man up in the backfield.
