Peyton Barber's Red Zone Workload Has Grown Again

At the start of the season, Peyton Barber saw a modest but significant red zone workload. He had an opportunity market share of at least 25% in three of his first five games, hitting 33.3% in each his fourth and fifth games.

He then had only three opportunities combined from Weeks 7 to 10. Things bounced back a bit in Week 11, with 5 opportunities and a 31.3% market share.

Week 12 saw him notch 5 opportunities again (1 target, 4 carries), accounting for a team-high 83.3% market share -- which was also the highest share in the NFL last week.

Two of his four touchdowns this season have come in the last two weeks, and with this significant increase in red zone work, we can expect him to keep finding the end zone with some regularity.
