BALLER MOVE: Start in 14+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: RB43
ANALYSIS: Indianapolis Colts running back Tyler Goodson wasn’t on fantasy football radars until a few weeks ago. Unfortunately, the Colts won’t have Jonathan Taylor for the third consecutive game because of a high-ankle sprain, leaving Trey Sermon and Goodson to fill his shoes in the backfield.
While Sermon played more snaps in Week 6, Goodson was the better fantasy football running back. He had eight rushing attempts for 51 yards and four receptions for 14 receiving yards against the Tennessee Titans, totaling 8.5 half-point PPR fantasy points. By comparison, Sermon scored 2.9 fantasy points on 18 rushing attempts.
Goodson is an explosive playmaker, providing Indianapolis with a home run threat out of the backfield. More importantly, he has an excellent matchup in Week 7.

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically.
