Jahmyr Gibbs Looking for Improved Efficiency in Week 2

Friday, September 12, 1:00 PM

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs had one of the least efficient games of his career in Week 1 against the Green Bay Packers, totaling just 50 yards from scrimmage on 19 touches without reaching the end zone. Gibbs led the Lions in receptions with 10, but he was only able to log 31 receiving yards on those 10 catches. The 23-year-old has a much easier matchup on paper in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears, who allowed 120 rushing yards to the Minnesota Vikings on Monday night. In two games against Chicago last season, Gibbs rushed for 196 yards and a touchdown on 32 carries and added six catches for 62 yards as a receiver. However, it's worth noting that fellow Lions back David Montgomery did not play in one of those games, and Gibbs had fewer rush attempts (nine) than Montgomery (11) against the Packers on Sunday. Gibbs remains a must-start fantasy RB1 in Week 2, but he may need to stay heavily involved as a receiver to post a monster game.
