Kenneth Dixon rushed 11 times for 39 yards and hauled in 8-of-11 passes for 42 yards and a touchdown in Baltimore’s Week 14 loss to the New England Patriots.
Fantasy Impact:
Kenneth Dixon looks to have overtaken Terrance West for the starting running back job in Baltimore after the rookie out-touched the veteran 19-6 on Monday night. Despite struggling in the first half and getting tackled for a safety, the rookie showed impressive running ability in the second half and making the Patriot defenders work to bring him down. The eight catches and the 11 targets were both season highs for Dixon as he was the beneficiary of numerous check-downs by quarterback Joe Flacco. Dixon’s touchdown catch came on play-action pass where he was wide open in the flat and was able to walk in for an eight yard score. Next up for Dixon and the Ravens is a matchup with the Eagles in Week 15 where Dixon will be a solid flex play for the second round of the fantasy playoffs.
