Malcolm Brown Has Tough Matchup For Week 2
4 years agoLos Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown finished as the No. 5 running back in Week 1, but it's unlikely he'll be able to replicate that in Week 2. The Philadelphia Eagles were ranked fifth against the running back position last season because they penetrate the backfield often. Combine that with their spotty secondary, and you have a recipe for avoiding starting running backs against them. Brown was anchored by his two touchdowns, and it's difficult to expect him to repeat that performance. Consider him a touchdown-dependent RB3/flex in Week 2 with a much lower ceiling than what we saw in the season opener.
