NFL Week 13 active gave us more than enough thrills, curse words, and headaches, even with six fewer teams on the slate than usual. From a fantasy football perspective, there wasn’t a great deal of information to glean from utilization unrelated to injuries. That tends to be the case this late in the season, but we saw a several players across running back, wide receiver and tight end who were substantially utilized but didn’t do much of anything.
This happens to some degree each week, of course, though it’s not too common for it to occur from all three of those skill positions. Perhaps it stands out more with fewer teams, but it’s worth a quick peek.
Indianapolis Colts RB Zack Moss was utilized 22 times and produced just 7.7 points in PPR. Green Bay’s AJ Dillon touched the ball 19 times for 9.7 points, and Pittsburgh Steelers running back Najee Harris managed the same output on his 19 utilizations (18 handles). No performance at the position stung more than Austin Ekeler‘s 4.7-point day (17 utilizations).
