ANALYSIS: Running back Bo Scarbrough certainly made his presence felt in his Detroit Lions debut in Week 11. He led the team with 55 rushing yards and 14 attempts and scored the team's first touchdown of the game.
The Lions have struggled to run the ball all year. Kerryon Johnson (knee) was placed on injured reserve a few weeks back and rookie Ty Johnson hasn't been able to establish himself at all. J.D. McKissic has shown some promise in the passing game but the team has been resilient to use him as a classic rusher. In comes Scarbrough, who the team threw right into the fire. Scarbrough's 14 carries in Week 11 were by far the most on the team. McKissic was second on the team with only three attempts.
Despite his lack of track record, Scarbrough is a must-add in all formats. He has a fantastic matchup against the Redskins in Week 12 and looks like a safe bet to get double-digit touches in the game, which will make him a low-end RB2 option in just about all leagues.
