Week 10 outlook
@ NYG ·No injury report yet
Austin Ekeler is a low-end RB3 this week. We're projecting 12 carries, 39 rushing yards, 1 reception and 11 receiving yards. Ekeler has been given more work, and nobody had to miss time for it. The sample is small, just 2 games in this role. Points have been hard to find against the Giants: the 7th-fewest allowed to running backs. Worth a flex spot this week.
