From the article
Since Week 4, Ollie Gordon has been the RB16 in fantasy points per game, averaging 18.6 touches and 90 total yards. Gordon will find more uphill sledding this week, though. Over their last five games, Detroit has allowed the eighth-lowest rushing success rate, the fewest yards after contact per attempt, and the 12th-fewest rushing yards over expectation per attempt.
STACKED’s take
Gordon's upside capped vs. Detroit's elite run defense; needs TD.
Since Week 4, Gordon has been the RB16 in fantasy points per game, averaging 18.6 touches and 90 total yards. Among 42 qualifying backs, he is eighth in explosive run rate and 23rd in yards after contact per attempt. His only drawback has been lack of passing game involvement—over his last four games, he has only six targets and zero receiving yards. He has to get it done on early downs, which he has been doing. However, Detroit's run defense has allowed the eighth-lowest rushing success rate, the fewest yards after contact per attempt, and the 12th-fewest rushing yards over expectation per attempt over their last five games. Gordon will need a touchdown to pay off for fantasy this week, along with all the volume he can handle.
