Week 14 – Marion Grice vs. Kansas City
Marion Grice had five carries for 16 yards in relief of the banged up Andre Ellington last week, and he added 24 yards on three receptions. Grice seems to be the backup, so he’s worth picking up as an insurance policy if you own Ellington. If Ellington is a go, then Grice has limited fantasy value, but if the hip injury keeps him out, then Grice should be considered a viable RB2 option against the 30th ranked Chiefs run defense.
Update:
Grice could get more work against the Chiefs with Andre Ellington now declared out for this week. Grice will split time with Stepfan Taylor, limiting the fantasy value of both players, but Grice will likely get enough work to be relevant for fantasy owners who are desperate following the loss of Ellington.
