Week 2 vs. Dallas Cowboys
Adrian Peterson was a healthy scratch in Week 1 as Washington appears to be fully-in on Derrius Guice. The problem now, however, is Guice will be out for several weeks, which means Peterson should take over main rushing duties now. He ran for 1,000 yards as the lead back a year ago, so he should get plenty of opportunities with Guice out of the lineup.
He gets what could be a tough matchup against the Cowboys this week. Dallas has a good defense, but allowed Saquon Barkley to run all over them in Week 1 (11 carries, 120 yards). We like Peterson as a lower-end RB2 option.
