Duke Johnson Looking At Increased Workload
4 years agoHouston Texans running back Duke Johnson could see an increased workload in Week 10 against the Browns. Teammate David Johnson (head) is in the concussion protocol and is "up in the air" for Week 10, according to head coach Romeo Crennel. Enter Duke Johnson, who, despite running rather unimpressively, saw a career-high 20 touches in relief of his teammate against the Jaguars. Now, he'll face a Browns Defense that has been stingy on the ground but somewhat susceptible to receiving backs. With the Texans as road underdogs, look for Johnson to do some damage as a receiver out of the backfield, making him an RB2 in all formats, particularly PPR.
