Gibbs' 29 carries and 5 receptions confirm elite workhorse role in Lions offense.

Gibbs is now a clear workhorse in the Lions offense after two seasons in a committee with David Montgomery; in Week 1 against the Saints, he carried 29 times for 156 yards and caught 5 passes for 30 yards, totaling 34 touches. His 29 carries were five more attempts than any other RB in the NFL in Week 1, while backup Sione Vaki had only 2 carries for 7 yards. The source notes Gibbs is super explosive and the Lions want to touch him as frequently as possible, which is why he likely went No. 1 overall in fantasy drafts.
