Kenyan Drake Fantasy

Baltimore Ravens running back Kenyan Drake has shined at times in 2022, but those moments are now in the past. Gus Edwards has returned from injury, and Drake is now being phased out of Baltimore's rushing attack. Operating as the team's lead back in Edwards' absence, Drake had back-to-back games with 16.7 and 24.9 fantasy points in Weeks 8 and 9, respectively. But when Edwards returned in Week 12, Drake was barely noticeable, rushing the ball only twice for two yards. His recent role reduction should be enough reason for fantasy managers to send him to the waiver wire, or at the very least, stash on your benches in deeper leagues.

Baltimore Ravens running back Kenyan Drake had two carries for two yards during the disappointing loss to Jacksonville on Sunday. With Gus Edwards (knee, hamstring) back on the field and finishing with 52 yards and a touchdown off 16 carries, Drake was left scrounging for touches. At this rate, Edwards should remain the primary option out of the backfield in Week 13 against Denver (assuming he stays healthy), so Drake likely won't be featured in many fantasy lineups for the foreseeable future.

Baltimore Ravens running back Kenyan Drake rushed 10 times for 46 yards during Sunday's win over the Carolina Panthers. He also turned four targets into two catches for an additional seven yards through the air. While Drake played fine, he failed to meet the level of production that was expected with Gus Edwards (hamstring, knee) sidelined. Drake isn't worth starting against the Jaguars in Week 12, especially if Edwards returns to the mix.
