Gus Edwards Remains A Risky Option Against Texans

10 months ago

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards has never instilled confidence into fantasy managers when they need to start him. There isn't really anyone in the Ravens backfield that is a surefire fantasy lineup lock, and it's been that way for a long time now. The Houston Texans sit right around the middle of the pack as they were tied for the 14th toughest defense against opposing running backs. While they've given up 12 touchdowns to running backs this year, they've allowed the sixth-fewest rushing yards and the lowest amount of yards per carry in the league. Edwards' saving grace is his red zone opportunities which seem to have shrunk toward the end of the season. So, this doesn't bode well for Edwards and makes him a touchdown-dependent option.
