Week 12 at San Francisco 49ers
J.D. McKissic had 12 touches last week for 53 yards which were season-highs for the first-year player. He seems to be the best running back option for Seattle in a backfield that has been a trainwreck this season.
It is a great matchup for Seahawks backs this week against a 49ers defense ranked 30th in aFPA to running backs. But even with that advantage, it is hard to recommend any Seattle running back, including McKissic, to be in your starting lineup. Keep him on the bench for Week 12.
Week 11 vs. Atlanta Falcons
The running back situation has been a mess all season long as J.D. McKissic becomes the fifth player to be the top ranked fantasy running back on the team. He only had nine touches last week, with many coming in the passing game and that's where the strength of the Seattle offense is right now.
McKissic will face the Falcons who are 14th in aFPA to running backs. McKissic may be a decent flex play in a PPR league, but should sit the bench in standard leagues as Seattle will give three different running backs this week touches.
Week 9 vs. Washington
Although he has two veterans ahead of him, J.D. McKissic does have some fantasy value. The first-year back had almost as many touches as Eddie Lacy and Thomas Rawls last week. This isn't enough to put him in your lineup or even your roster, but it is enough to keep an eye on him.
