Scouting report

JAX RB Chris Ivory - Week 9, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at Kansas City
When your team keeps falling behind early and you're not the pass-catching back, you get what Ivory had last week - four carries for six yards. Until the Jaguars figure out how to stay in games early, Ivory is going to be something of an afterthought. Sharing time with T.J. Yeldon doesn't help, but Ivory has little fantasy value other than as a flex play at this point.

JAX RB Chris Ivory - Week 8, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Jacksonville
Ivory got just seven touches last week, but turned his five carries and two receptions into 48 rushing yards and three receiving yards. Unfortunately, T.J. Yeldon got seven touches, as well, so there's no real separation between the two. And because of that timeshare, neither is a viable option this week (especially against a Tennessee defense that has been tough to run against).

JAX RB Chris Ivory - Week 7, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Oakland
Ivory had twice as many touches as TJ Yeldon last week at Chicago, gaining 31 yards on 11 carries and also catching a pair of passes. He also got into the end zone. Oakland's run defense is bad and the Raiders have allowed five RB rushing touchdowns. While one game doesn't a trend make, it's worth keeping an eye on this week. And Ivory might be the more valuable back this week, though the timeshare makes them both nothing better than flex plays.

JAX RB Chris Ivory - Week 6, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Chicago
Ivory hasn't lit the world on fire since his return and got just eight touches in the game before the bye compared to 18 for T.J. Yeldon. Ivory produced just 29 yards on those touches, but that's not unusual for a grinder such as him. What you're looking for here is touchdowns if he gets a shot as the short-yardage back. He's produced 43 yards on 20 carries in his first two games and seems to be losing ground to Yeldon. No help here.

JAX RB Chris Ivory - Week 4, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Indianapolis
Ivory made it back last week after sitting out the first two weeks, but managed just 14 yards on 12 carries. He's still dealing with ankle and knee issues that limited him in practice this week, so that's not good news. The Colts are 29th in the league in fantasy points allowed to opposing running backs, but given that he's splitting time with T.J. Yeldon and his injury status, Ivory isn't worth anything more than a flex play.

JAX RB Chris Ivory - Week 1, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. Green Bay
Ivory showed up on the injury report this week with a calf injury that could limit him. He has a lengthy history of nagging leg issues over the course of his career. He and T.J. Yeldon will split time in the backfield, even if he does play, which is likely. And Yeldon will be the more valuable overall play, particularly in PPR leagues, thanks to his pass catching ability. Ivory is a flex play if his calf checks out OK.

JAX RB Chris Ivory - 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

2016 Fantasy Outlook
Ivory cashed in on his first 1,000-yard season by signing with the Jaguars in free agency and will pair with T.J. Yeldon to form a formidable tandem. He had a career-high 247 carries last season, up from 198 the year before, so he's never been a truly high volume guy. Ivory has scored 13 touchdowns on the ground over the past two seasons and it will be interesting to see how the Jaguars divvy up carries. Ivory had never been much of a factor catching the ball until last season when he had 30 receptions, so expect Yeldon to continue to be the third-down option. Expect around 200 touches for Ivory, which should include short-yardage and goal-line situations. Ivory is being taken as the 30th running back selected in early drafts, compared to 33 for Yeldon. Both will have value, but neither will be a star unless the other is injured.
