SIT ‘EM – RB

It might seem odd to recommend sitting Adrian Peterson, who was off to such an electric start, but he’s been on the decline as of lately. The Redskins offensive line is banged up, which has led to a lack of running game for Peterson.

Not only are the injuries along the offensive line a problem for Peterson, but this week’s match-up isn’t exactly ideal for him either. The Texans have been very effective against the run, allowing just 3.5 yards per carry to opposing running backs so far.

With the past few weeks being a bit rough for Peterson and the match-up being tough, I’d leave the Redskins running back on the bench in week 11.
