Jordan Howard Fantasy

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard couldn't get anything going with the ball in Week 2. He gained 18 yards on eight carries, adding eight yards on his lone catch of the game. Howard and rookie Miles Sanders both struggled with the ball even though plenty of Eagles offensive playmakers missed time due to injury. Howard will likely only have fantasy value this season in weeks that he scores a touchdown.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard is a low-floor option for Week 2. Howard saw the fewest touches in the Eagles backfield in Week 1, and wasn't consistently used for short yardage work either. Still, he did look decent and perhaps earned a few more touches going forward. Looking like a touchdown-dependent option, Howard won't put up huge yardage numbers, so fantasy owners are looking at a risky floor in combination with a ceiling that isn't particularly high. Howard is not a recommended option in most lineups for Week 2.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Jordan Howard carried the ball six times in Week 1, gaining 44 yards. He also caught two passes for 11 yards through the air. Howard trailed Darren Sproles (9) and Miles Sanders (11) in carries, but averaged the most yards per carry in the Eagles backfield with 7.3. Howard was efficient, but seemed to take a backseat to Sproles and Sanders in the backfield. With Corey Clement still around and sure to play on offense eventually, Howard looks like a touchdown-dependent, low-upside running back option going forward.
