Jerome Ford sees 15 carries in Week 1 win

Jerome Ford carried the ball 15 times for 36 yards in a 24-3 win over Cincinnati in Week 1.

Fantasy Impact: He also lost a fumble in the win. Despite all of the carries, Ford operated as the strict backup to Nick Chubb. He wound up taking eight of his 15 carries on the team’s final two drives of the game when the contest was already out of hand. Ford has fantasy value as a handcuff behind Chubb moving forward.
