START ‘EM – RB

player. 59. . Running Back. Dolphins. Kenyan Drake. 2

Normally I go with whichever running back is facing the Kansas City Chiefs, but David Johnson is usually a must start for people, so I went a different route for week ten. My Start ‘Em at running back this week is Kenyan Drake.

Kenyan Drake has been underutilized in Miami, as somehow Frank Gore just keeps on trucking. With all of that said, however, Drake is still a nice option as a RB2 or Flex running back this weekend.

The Dolphins face a Packers defense that has been dreadful against the run. Michael Fabiano of NFL.com notes that,

"Green Bay has allowed 4.7 yards per rush and the fourth-most PPR points to running backs since Week 6."

Even with Gore getting more carries, Kenyan Drake could still be an impactful running back for fantasy owners this weekend. He has a favorable match-up, so now we just have to hope that Gore doesn’t get the bulk of the carries.
