Jaguars to see how RB James Robinson feels to determine usage

Sep 07, 2022

"I think we have to get into the football game." -- Doug Pederson on James Robinson's usage. Says they're going to roll with how he's feeling on Sunday.

"I think he's there ... I'm excited to watch him play."

Fantasy Impact:

Etienne is expected to get the bulk of the work but Robinson seems to keep trending up. Still, he's probably a risky Week 1 play until we see how he does and how many touches he gets. Shipley went on to tweet: Pederson says Robinson is a different type of runner than Etienne, and each fits different kinds of things they want to do in the run game. Says Robinson runs lower and more so behind his pads, and having two different types of backs gives them flexibility."

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
