Nyheim Hines A Possible RB2 Against Jaguars
2 years agoIndianapolis Colts running back Nyheim Hines was heavily involved in the passing attack during the season opener. Hines hauled in all six of his targets for 50 yards in what ended up being a tie with the Houston Texans. He didn't do much in the running department, but Hines probably won't need to run in order to have fantasy value. The Colts are going to be shorthanded with Michael Pittman Jr. (quad) ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. That means, Hines is likely going to see more involved in the offense during Week 2. He probably won't run the ball a ton, but is looking like a fairly decent fantasy option in PPR formats. Hines might be able to carry RB2 value in PPR formats. At worst, he's worth a look as a flex option in most formats with the Colts shorthanded.
