Week 3 at Philadelphia Eagles
Shane Vereen had 6 carries and 3 catches on Monday night against the Lions for a total of 55 yards from scrimmage. Vereen is probably the safest Giants back because he’s the main running back used in the passing game, but it’s hard to trust anyone in the New York Giants backfield right now.
Vereen faces an Eagles defense that gave up 4 catches, 52 yards, and a touchdown receiving to Chris Thompson in Week 1, so there’s some upside for Vereen, but he’s a low-end RB3 option in PPR formats this week, at best.
