Buccaneers' Jacquizz Rodgers in line for a big workload in his delayed 2017 debut
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Jacquizz Rodgers will make his 2017 debut on Sunday against the Chicago Bears.
What It Means:
With Tampa's Week 1 matchup against the Miami Dolphins being postponed, Rodgers gets a delayed start to his season. With Doug Martin suspended, he stands to play a big role in the Bucs offense.
Rodgers is numberFire's 18th-ranked fantasy running back for the week. Our models project him for 56.7 yards and 0.3 touchdowns on 12.4 carries and 16.0 yards and 0.1 touchdowns on 2.1 receptions.
