Chase Edmonds Has Flex Potential In Week 5
4 years agoArizona Cardinals running back Chase Edmonds has gotten a lot of recent buzz in the fantasy community due to the struggles of the team's No. 1 back Kenyan Drake. However, the Cardinals are yet to give any indication that they plan to reduce Drake's workload and feature Edmonds more heavily. Edmonds has 13 receptions and two receiving touchdowns on the year, but has only carried the ball 16 times. The Cardinals face a dreadful New York Jets Defense in Week 5, which should allow several Cardinals skill players to flourish. Edmonds could very much be one of them, but don't expect a drastically increased workload. He should see somewhere around ten touches, including five targets in the passing game, making him a solid flex option, especially in PPR leagues.
