BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED: 23% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars running back Chris Thompson saw his role increase in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. Thompson caught three of his four targets for 20 yards and a touchdown and also added two carries for seven yards in the game.
James Robinson was given a workhorse role for the Jaguars in Week 2, carrying the ball 16 times for 102 yards and a touchdown. He also had a role in the passing game, catching three of his four targets for 18 yards.
Thompson's upside will be limited as long as Robinson continues to see such a heavy workload, but if you're looking for a potential flex option in PPR leagues of 12 teams or deeper, Thompson is a worthy add. Robinson and Thompson are the only Jaguars running backs to earn a touch this season, so Thompson could see a massive workload if Robinson were to go down. Yet even with Robinson in the picture, look for Thompson to see an expanded role in the passing game going forward, making him a potential flex option in deep PPR leagues in the near future.
