Clyde Edwards-Helaire

I'm going to be honest, one of the most difficult players for me to project this season is Clyde Edwards-Helaire. His talent, his receiving ability out of the backfield, and the offense he's in all indicate that he should be a top-tier fantasy contributor. Unfortunately, the usage is too unpredictable to feel confident ranking him anywhere higher than a mid-range RB2. If Andy Reid commits to the run game behind this new offensive line, CEH could be a top-5 fantasy option in 2021. On the other hand, we could see more of the same from this offense this season where CEH gets a handful of carries each game, but it's not nearly enough to push him into weekly top-12 consideration. We'll need to monitor training camp reports to see if Reid is looking to change the offense a bit to lean on CEH. If he does, Edwards-Helaire could be the steal of fantasy football drafts this year.

My Very Early Projection: 204-918-6 rushing & 54-424-2 receiving.

Clyde Edwards-Helaire says he's 100% healthy now

Pete Sweeney of the Arrowhead Pride reports that Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire says he is 100% healthy.

Fantasy Impact

Edwards-Helaire went on to say that he was 85-90% in last years Super Bowl. He suffered a lower body injury against the Saints that knocked him out of the last few games of the season. The good news is that he is now 100% healthy and the Chiefs beefed up their offensive line. Edwards-Helaire totaled 1,100 scrimmage yards in only 13 games last season. He is currently being drafted as the RB14 in PPR drafts and is a great pick in all fantasy formats.
