START ‘EM – RB

player. 36. . Running Back. Seahawks. Chris Carson. 2

Chris Carson had himself a night last week, rushing for 116 yards against the Chiefs on Sunday Night Football. He should continue to put up good numbers in week 17, as the Cardinals got gashed on the ground last week by newcomer C.J. Anderson.

Be cautious with Carson, however, as there is a chance he might not play much or at all. Monitor his status throughout the week and if Mike Davis or Rashaad Penny are available, grab them off the waiver wire. Penny has been injured, but Davis should be fine.

If Carson does indeed play against Arizona, he will put up good numbers. As I mentioned though, there’s a chance he isn’t in action much and that’d be a terrible reason to lose your fantasy football league.

Tread lightly with Chris Carson, but if he does play, he’s a must start at running back in the final week of the season.
