Fantasy Football: Five Chiefs To Play Vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers
By Ben Almquist
Spencer Ware – RB
Projection: 18 Carries for 70+ yards and 1 TD; 4 Catches for 30+ yards
Fantasy Football players are falling in love with Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware. Though he hasn’t found the endzone as much as desired, the Chiefs running back has shown the ability to pick up chunks of yards. With the Chiefs favoring the run game, that has made him a cernterpiece of the offense.
The Buccaneers aren’t very good against he run, and I expect the Chiefs will give them a healthy dose of it. That means Spencer Ware will get a large share of the work on offense. Ware will also likely get some work in the passing game where he has shown talent. That means he will get a good number of touches on the day, and that should translate to points.
Spencer Ware is an excellent option as a running back in your fantasy league. If you drafted him as a handcuff to Jamaal Charles, you’re probably laughing at the top of your league right now. Looking at the DFS match up this week, I’m loving Spencer Ware against the Buccaneers. Plain and simple, you should play him.
