LeGarrette Blount wants Eagles to stay 'grounded' despite hot start

Philadelphia Eagles' running back LeGarrette Blount wants his teammates to stay humble after their 5-1 start.

What It Means:

“We could lose 10 in a row,” Blount said. “We could go 6-10, so we don't want to jump the gun, jump to conclusions. We want to make sure we take it week by week, day by day, keep a level head and make sure we're going to be ready for whoever the next opponent is.” Blount and the Eagles will take on Washington on Monday Night Football. Washington's sports a top-10 run defense, having allowed 88 rushing yards per game thus far.

numberFire projects Blount will be the 24th-best running back in Week 7. We project he will post 9.6 FanDuel points with 44.7 rushing yards, 20.4 receiving yards and 0.3 touchdowns. Blount will cost $5,800 for this weekend.
