NFL Week 16 Waiver Wire Targets (2022)

Deon Jackson and Zack Moss – Running Back – Indianapolis Colts (12% and 1% owned) Jonathan Taylor left Week 15 with an ankle injury and has since been basically ruled out for the remainder of the season.  That leaves Deon Jackson and Zack Moss as the ones who will pick up the slack. Jackson has stepped into this role a few times this season and has flashed, so he seems to be the more exciting option at this time.  He did rush 13 times for 55 yards and caught one pass for a touchdown against the Vikings.   Moss carried the ball 24 times for 81 yards and did not record a reception, although he does have decent pass-catching abilities.  The Colts face the Chargers in Week 16, a pretty good matchup for Running Backs.  Both backs are worth rostering to finish the season, but it may be difficult to predict who gets the most work.  I would prioritize Jackson based on past experience.
