Week 2 – Rashad Jennings vs. Arizona
Rashad Jennings had a nice first showing. While he finished with only 46 yards on the ground against the Lions on Monday night, he had a late touchdown run and he added 50 yards on four receptions, showing his versatility. Additionally, he had 16 of the Giants 22 rushing attempts, staving off competition from rookie fourth round pick Andre Williams for workload.
This week, Jennings faces a tougher opponent in the Arizona Cardinals, who held the Chargers rushing attack to just over 50 yards last week, 10 of which came on a scramble from quarterback Philip Rivers. Despite a bad matchup, Jennings should continue to be a workhorse in the rushing game and catch some passes to augment his rushing performance, and he looks like a solid RB2 this week, and moving forward.
