Adrian Peterson's Touches Could Be Reduced Against Falcons
4 years agoDetroit Lions running back Adrian Peterson will face a Falcons Defense that is allowing the ninth most fantasy points to opposing backs this season. Peterson has been the lead back but was overshadowed last week by D'Andre Swift's two touchdowns and 116 yards. Peterson has a great matchup this week but could take a backseat once again as the Falcons are allowing the most receiving yards to running backs this season. The Lions could choose to feature Swift more in this game, making Peterson a touchdown-dependent option out of the backfield in Week 7.
