Rico Dowdle
RB - Carolina Panthers
Availability
Expert Note
View More NotesPredictably so...the Panthers couldn't run on the Bucs. Rico Dowdle and Chubba Hubbard both were held under 30 yards.
Dowdle salvaged some production with four catches for 14 yards (six targets). Led the backfield with a 57% snap share.
And Dowdle did out-touch Hubbard by a sizeable amount (more than 3 touches) for the second straight game (13 vs 7 in Week 16).
Even so, in the last six weeks, Dowdle has not finished higher than RB14 on the week. In fact, Dowdle only has one RB1 finish since Hubbard returned to the lineup in Week 7.
The Panthers RB does have some noteworthy contract incentives: 1,350 yards from scrimmage and 8 TDs are what remains (sitting at 1270 yards and 6 TDs).

Fantasy Impact
Thank goodness for his receiving work, because he didn't get much of anything going on the ground. He's gone quiet over the last few games, but he's at least had enough receiving work to make him flex-worthy. He will look to put up a better game next week against Seattle.
