Sony Michel Expected To Play Despite Questionable Designation
3 years agoLos Angeles Rams running back Sony Michel (shoulder) is expected to play in Week 7 against the Detroit Lions despite having a questionable designation for Sunday's game. Michel was able to practice on a limited basis on Thursday and Friday and should retain backup duties to Darrell Henderson Jr. On the season, Michel has seen only 28.9% of the offensive snaps behind Henderson, and he has single-digit carries in three of his six games so far in 2021. There's a chance that the 26-year-old could see additional work on Sunday if this game turns into a blowout against the winless Lions, but it's hard for fantasy managers to bank on that. As long as he continues to play second fiddle to Henderson, Michel will struggle for standalone value as more of an RB4/flex.
