Chris Ivory-RB-Jacksonville Jaguars

The Jaguars welcomed back Chris Ivory after he missed the first two weeks due to a mystery illness and hospitalization just before Week 1. In good news, he seemed to be the feature back for Jacksonville right way getting 13 touches on Sunday while T.J. Yeldon only had eight.

Unfortunately for Ivory investors, he wasn’t able to get much going on the ground, though, finishing with only 14 yards on his 12 carries. It may be that the problem with the Jacksonville run game is with the offensive line and neither Ivory or Yeldon are ready to overcome that hurdle.

Ivory is still worth owning in every format since he looks like he’s back to a pretty large share of the workload. However, I’d leave him on the bench until he shows he is healthy enough and getting enough support for the offensive line to get out of our fantasy football busts.
