Jordan Howard Lacks Upside In Week 7
6 years agoChicago Bears running back Jordan Howard will look to get his season on track in Week 7 against the Patriots. Howard has been a frustrating fantasy asset to this point in the season and has lost touches to speedster Tarik Cohen. Howard is averaging 15.6 carries per game but has only 272 yards to show for it with only one rushing touchdown. Howard lost a fumble at the 1-yard line in the Bears loss to the Dolphins but put together some strong runs in the overtime session. This week he will take on a Patriots defense that is allowing the 15th most fantasy points to opposing running backs and have been burned, at times, by speedy running backs in the passing game. Howard is mostly a between-the-tackles type runner and his season is currently trending in the wrong direction. Howard will be no more than a low-end RB2 against New England in Week 7.
