Jerick McKinnon A Solid Flex Option In PPR For Week 2
4 years agoSan Francisco 49ers running back Jerick McKinnon should be heavily involved in the team's offensive gameplan in Week 2 against the New York Jets. McKinnon carried the ball three times for 24 yards and caught three of his five targets for 20 yards and a touchdown in Week 1. Last week's game was his first NFL action since 2017, so there's good reason to believe the team will use him more heavily going forward now that he's shaken off the rust, so to speak. Expect McKinnon to see around 10 touches in Week 2, with over half of his touches coming in the passing game. He's a great flex or RB3 option in PPR leagues. In non-PPR, he's a bit more risky with a lower ceiling, but can still be considered as a flex option.
