Gus Edwards Week 11 Outlook - Jets at Chargers

Over a span of seven games, so not a single one of them has averaged nine touches per game. Opponents have chosen to run the ball against the Titans on just 39.0 percent of their plays, which ranks as the seventh-lowest percentage in the league. Because of that, running backs have combined for 26.8 touches per game. That's slightly better than the 22.6 these running backs are averaging in games they're all active, though almost all of them are carries. The Titans have allowed 4.41 yards per carry and eight rushing touchdowns, which are both around the league average. There have been seven running backs who've finished top-20 against the Titans, but they all have one thing in common: they all received at least 12 carries, which is something only Gus Edwards can say he's done with all three of them on the field, though the game he did was where Ingram had to leave early. None of these running backs can be recommended starts, including Dobbins who hasn't totaled more than seven touches when all three running backs play the whole game. He offers the most one-play upside, which is why he's the best play, but he's nothing more than a risky RB4. Ingram and Edwards are both low-floor, low-ceiling RB4/5 options.
