AJ Dillon A Desperation Flex Against Saints

AJ Dillon A Desperation Flex Against Saints

one year ago

Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon will take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 3. After getting the start last week due to the absence of Aaron Jones (hamstring), the 25-year-old draws a tough matchup against the Saints. New Orleans has held opposing running backs in check through two weeks, allowing the 10th-fewest fantasy points per game to the position, and they have yet to allow a rushing touchdown. Dillon looked awful last week in replacement of Jones, averaging only 3.6 yards per carry and being taken off the field often for backups Patrick Taylor and Emanuel Wilson. Jones has a chance to return this week, but even if he doesn't, it will be tough to trust the Packers' No. 2 back as even a flex option in such a poor matchup. Dillon is nothing more than a desperate flex for those in need of running back help.
