Fantasy Football: Five Kansas City Chiefs To Play Vs Carolina Panthers

Spencer Ware

Projection:18 Carries for 70+ yards and 1 TD; 4 Catches for 50+ yards and 1 TD

Fantasy Football owners will be excited to get Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware back into their lineup.  The Chiefs feature back sat out last week after suffering a concussion against the Colts.  In his stead, Charcandrick West struggled against a Jaguars defense that keyed on the running game.

Spencer Ware should be looking to pick up where he left off.  Ware is especially dangerous as a receiver out of the backfield.  In that role, he should be able to find holes in the Panthers defense.  There have been very few running backs in the NFL as good in space as Spencer Ware.  He won’t be as effective running the ball, but I think he finds the endzone this week.

You should be putting Spencer Ware in as one of your primary running backs in fantasy league play.  He has proven his worth in that role as a reliable player to bring in points.  As a DFS play, he’s a little risky this week because the Panthers do play well against the run.  However, his ability as a receiver should make up for that.
