A.J. Dillon Week 13 Outlook - 49ers at Eagles

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Sat, Dec 2nd 2023, 12:05am EST

In his four starts this season, Dillon has been underwhelming, and that's putting it kindly. He has averaged 16 touches and 63.2 total yards with RB33, RB56, RB13, and RB25 weekly finishes. Dillon has been running like a fullback this season. Among 55 qualifying backs, Dillon ranks 40th in explosive run rate and 46th in missed tackles forced per attempt. Dillon's matchup this week is amazing. Since Week 7, Kansas City has allowed the 11th-highest explosive run rate, the fourth-highest yards after contact per attempt, and the highest yards per carry to zone runs (Dillon 51.1% zone). It's fair to question if Dillon can take advantage of this amazing matchup, though. Week 13 Positional Value: RB3 (if Jones is out)
