Fantasy Football Player Notes

Coleman's 16 carries in Week 12 were the byproduct of a favorable game-script, but that's not exactly something that we should anticipate here. Philadelphia's defense is a much more formidable unit than Houston and we could see New York get down early if the Eagles offense is even functional. Coleman should still be the lead option in this backfield, but with potentially losing goal-line work to Walter like last week, there's very little upside to playing him in a crucial fantasy week. Coleman can be viewed as a mid-range RB3.

Johnson was the hot waiver wire add for Week 12, but he wound up finishing third in the Jets backfield in terms of touches. There's the possibility that the Jets utilize Johnson more this week as the pass-catching option if they're playing from behind, but that is a major question mark now that there are three options in this backfield. Johnson can be viewed as a mid-range/low-end RB3, but it's probably best to just stay away.

Walter came out of literally nowhere last week to score Week 12's most inconsequential touchdown - and he averaged over 4 YPC on his 9 attempts - but we still shouldn't be looking his way for fantasy football. He can remain on your league's waiver wire.
