What It Means:

Forte's 59 touches (52 carries, 7 catches) are tied with Lamar Miller for second-most in the NFL, behind DeAngelo Williams. Gailey isn't expressing concern about Forte's durability in his age-30 campaign, but it's inevitable that backup Bilal Powell will start cutting into Forte's workload as the season progresses. For now, however, Forte can continue being fired up as a top-tier RB1.

The Jets face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 3, where we expect Forte to rush 16 times for 70 yards and 0.32 touchdowns, adding 22 yards on 3 catches through the air.
