Gus Edwards

Edwards is a touchdown-dependent flex play with a great matchup this week. Last week, he played 42% of the snaps, with 12 touches and 28 total yards. Edwards only ran six routes to Dobbins' 17, so don't expect any pass-game involvement for Edwards weekly. The sad thing for Edwards is that he is likely just keeping a seat warm for Kimani Vidal in this offense. Edwards didn't manage one explosive run or one missed tackle in Week 1, with only 1.73 yards after contact per attempt. He could finish as an RB3 this week, though, if he falls into the end zone. In Week 1, Carolina had the eighth-lowest stuff rate while giving up the third-most rushing yards, the seventh-highest yards after contact per attempt, and the 13th-highest yards before contact per attempt.
