Christian McCaffrey, Mike Davis To Split Carries
4 years agoCarolina Panthers running backs Christian McCaffrey and Mike Davis are expected to share the load against Kansas City in Week 9. The Panthers clearly want to be careful with McCaffrey after his high-ankle sprain and have a luxury at backup with how well Davis played. It's unclear how much of a split it will be, though it's reasonable to expect around 20 touches for McCaffrey and around 10 for Davis. Of course, the game flow could dictate this- and it doesn't change the players' outlooks all that much. McCaffrey is a strong RB1- while Davis can be used as a flex in deep leagues.
