Gainwell's elite per-touch efficiency makes him flex-worthy if he gets 10-15 carries against tough Bears run defense.
Over the last two games, Kenneth Gainwell has averaged 19.5 carries and 114 rushing yards as the RB35 in fantasy points per game. He has been excellent on a per-touch basis with a 15.5% explosive run rate, 3.09 yards after contact per attempt, and a 29% missed tackle rate. However, the Bears' run defense has been strong, allowing only a 26.3% rushing success rate, -0.57 rushing yards over expectation per attempt, and 1.68 yards after contact per attempt. If Gainwell gets 10-15 touches, he can still be flex-worthy despite the tough matchup.
