Two factors likely played a role in the move. The first is that Joseph Randle suffered an oblique injury against the Giants that could keep him out of the lineup against the Seahawks this weekend. The second is the way that McFadden performed against the Giants, often looking unstoppable. If Randle is indeed out, Christine Michael would likely see a bump in snaps behind McFadden.
