Kerryon Johnson-Championship Week (1 Viewer)

[GreedoShotFirst]

I've got Cook and Jacobs who will be sitting on my bench this week, but I did pick up Kerryon Johnson. Anyone have insight into if/how much he will play? I'm tempted by the idea of a guy with fresh legs getting in their against defenders with all their week 16 bumps and bruises. And given the injuries to all of the other Lions RBs, it feels like there is a shot that KJ could get a full load of carries this week.

If I had to guess, we will see a Bo Scarbrough and Kerryon tandem which I believe is what they want to do next year.  Hopefully that means Kerryon gets the passing work but I doubt he get all or close to all the touches.  If Bo doesn’t play then they will just substitute another grinder.

I get the "fresh legs" angle and that is a bit intriguing but I'd just be too worried he's not only rusty but maybe not really ready and leaves the game early.

Think it would be a desperation play.

Could see Denver at home absolutely crucifying this team.

Right ,KJ  better in ppr than standard. Bo will do a lot of the grunt work.
