Jaguars could feature Corey Grant 'a lot more' in 2018
Brian Sexton of Jaguars.com expects the Jacksonville Jaguars to feature running back Corey Grant more in 2018.
What It Means:
Sexton believes the team is "too smart to leave a weapon like Grant on the sidelines again" in 2018. The back saw just 33 touches in 2017 but is in line for an expanded role this season as a chance of pace back behind starter Leonard Fournette. While he may see more action this season, Grant would only have fantasy value if Fournette would go down with injury and even then he would be battling for carries with T.J. Yeldon.
Our models project Grant for 35.9 touches in 2018, while ending up with 229.6 total yards and 1.7 touchdowns.
