Chase Edmonds is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for running backs. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 18 of the 2022 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 21% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Chase Edmonds was traded to Denver on November 1, but only registered 15 snaps and three touches during his debut with the Broncos in Week 10. He sustained an ankle injury after just three snaps in Week 11 and was placed on injured reserve.
However, Edmonds has also operated as the Broncos’ RB2 since he re-emerged for Denver’s Week 16 matchup with the Rams, and his escalating workload has elevated him into consideration as a roster addition.
Edmonds promptly secured a 42% snap share in Week 16, and also accumulated eight touches and generated 53 total yards- including 31 on the ground.
Edmonds also played on 41 snaps when the Broncos traveled to Kansas City in Week 17, which nearly matched the 42 snaps that were accumulated by Latavius Murray. He also attained a double-digit touch total, including seven rushing attempts, while assembling 734 total yards against the Chiefs. Edmonds also captured all three of his targets while amassing 39 yards.
His expanding role is providing enough opportunities for Edmonds to function as a flex option during your Week 18 matchups.
