Matt Breida boasts 129 yards, 2 touchdowns in 49ers' victory
San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida rushed 11 times for 114 yards and 1 touchdown and caught 3 passes (3 targets) for 15 yards and another touchdown in a 31-3, Week 5 win over the Cleveland Browns on Monday night.
What It Means:
Breida busted out down the left sideline for an 83-yard touchdown on the 49ers' very first play from scrimmage. It was his first touchdown of the season. He then added a 5-yard touchdown catch two drives later, marking the third-year back's second career multi-score game. Breida was out-touched 16-14 by Tevin Coleman, but this offense is set up for both backs to return standalone value when the matchup is right. The 49ers are taking on a Los Angeles Rams defense that is 15th in the NFL in rushing yards allowed per game, but tied for 7th in rushing yards allowed per carry.
Breida scored a season-high 26.4 FanDuel points on Monday night and is averaging 13.4 FP per game. He's the RB31 in numberFire's Week 6 fantasy rankings, at a cost of $5,900 on FanDuel.
