Is a Woody Marks Breakout Game Loading?
Woody Marks had his most involved game in the NFL last week against the Jaguars, and he could be in for a breakout game in a favorable matchup against the Titans, who have allowed the third-most fantasy points to running backs this season. The fourth-round pick from USC is a proven producer as a receiver out of the backfield and took over more responsibility from Dare Ogunbowale in Week 3, serving as the clear second option in the backfield behind Nick Chubb. Marks played 11% of snaps in Week 1, 27% in Week 2, and then his playing time jumped to 48% in Week 3. Marks had six carries for 27 yards and one catch for nine more yards, but he has flashed a higher upside than those totals indicate. He could pass Chubb for playing time sometime this season, and even if it's an even split this week, he has enough upside to potentially have a breakout performance. He's only the RB31 in RotoBaller's rankings this week, so he still is high-risk as a flex play, but he's definitely one of the top rookies to watch this weekend if you're expecting one to break through with a big game.
