BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team PPR Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 38% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Ezekiel Elliott used to be one of the best running backs in the NFL and fantasy football, but obviously those days are long gone. However, the veteran can still provide value, especially around the goal line and as a receiver.
Elliott has racked up 331 yards on the ground and 108 yards through the air in his time in New England and is still relied upon to get some carries, as he is currently averaging 8.6 rushing attempts per game, close to Rhamondre Stevenson's 12.6.
This was one of Ezekiel Elliott's best carries of the season

The former Cowboys star has also scored two touchdowns in the red zone and has had more targets (24), receptions (18), and receiving yards (108) through ten games this season compared to the entirety of last season.
Stevenson suffered a back injury during the Patriots' game against the Colts, and although he seems to be okay now after a week of rest, it's something to keep an eye on. Another thing that could benefit Elliott's fantasy outlook is Bill Belichick's desperation. He doesn't want to damage his legacy any further and we know from his past that he's not afraid to change RBs mid-season. Either way, Elliott should be a valuable pickup in deep PPR leagues.
