Zack Moss is a fantasy football waiver wire pickup option for running backs. Target him as a free agent add off waivers for Week 16 of the 2022 NFL season.
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 37% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Zack Moss entered Week 15 having accumulated 84 offensive snaps, 24 rushing attempts, 122 rushing yards, and eight targets. Deon Jackson had been limited to 69 snaps, 17 rushing attempts, 35 rushing yards, and eight targets from Weeks 7-14. However, both backs quickly launched into expanded roles after Jonathan Taylor sustained an ankle injury in Week 15.
Taylor suffered the injury on his first touch when Indianapolis traveled to Minneapolis while propelling Moss and Jackson into a combined 37 rushing attempts and 136 rushing yards following Taylor’s departure.
Moss secured a career-high 67% snap share while leading the Colts in both categories (24 carries/81 yards). Jackson attained a 32% snap share, carried 13 times, assembled 55 yards, and generated a touchdown on his only reception.
Taylor’s health should be monitored closely during the week, but Moss has soared into relevance as a potential RB2/RB3 during an enticing matchup with the Chargers in Week 16 if Taylor is absent. Jackson can also be stashed as an additional flex option if the Colts opt to keep Taylor sidelined for any reason.
