Ke’Shawn Vaughn expected to be active
Bruce Arians says Jamel Dean and Giovani Bernard are out vs. Patriots on Sunday. With Gio Bernard out, Ke’Shawn Vaughn dresses as the No. 3 running back, though Arians said he might use Fournette more in Bernard’s pass-catching and third-down role. (Greg Auman on Twitter)
Nerdy Football Analysis: If Fournette is utilized on third downs this would be a nice bump in his value for PPR leagues giving more RB2 value. We may see Vaughn sprinkled in on Sunday night against the Patriots but I would guess Fournette does see an increase in usage this week.
