Dion Lewis Could See Extra Work In Week 1
5 years agoTennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis may get extended run in the Week 1 matchup with the Cleveland Browns. The Browns are expected to field one of the league's most explosive offenses in 2019, which could lead to a negative game script for the Titans offense. This scenario would almost certainly lead to more work for Lewis, who is the preferred pass-catching back on the team. Derrick Henry also missed nearly all of camp with a calf injury, so his usage may be scaled back to avoid aggravating his prior injury. All of these factors are setting up for a solid performance for Lewis in Week 1, although he is still no more than a low-end RB3 due to concerns about the overall productivity of the Titans offense.
