James Robinson sees only eight touches in Week 1 loss

James Robinson rushed only five times for 25 yards and lost a fumble during Sunday's Week 1 loss to the Texans.

Fantasy Impact:

Robinson saw fewer carries than Carlos Hyde but some of that could be due to punishment as Robinson lost a fumble in this one. His six targets in the passing game are encouraging and could become a normal occurrence if Trevor Lawrence is forced to throw 50+ times a game. Either way, fantasy managers have to be disappointed with Sunday's showing from Robinson and the increased presence of Hyde in the backfield. Robinson is best viewed as an RB3 for Week 2 against the Broncos.
