Peyton Barber expected to be Bucs' starting running back on Monday
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Peyton Barber is expected ot be the starting running back on Monday versus the Atlanta Falcons.
What It Means:
Barber played exceptionally well in Doug Martin's absence in Week 13 and outplayed the veteran back once again last week after Martin was benched for fumbling. Barber racked up 206 yards on 40 touches the last two weeks. Martin will assumedly back him up on Monday.
Our models projected Barber for 42.7 yards on 8.0 touches for 7.1 FanDuel points before the new starting role was announced.
