While the sample size is small, Jay Ajayi has shown over the past two weeks why many were so high on him after the Dolphins drafted him in this past year's NFL draft.
Since being activated from the injured reserved-designated to return list two weeks ago, Ajayi has accounted for 89 yards on just 11 carries and on Sunday outgained starting tailback Lamar Miller 48-to-43 despite being out-touched by him 16-6.
And with Ajayi's hard-nosed running style leading to rumors that he's already earned an expanded role on this team both on early downs and near the goal line, he should continue to get more and more touches for this Dolphins squad as they try to keep their lead back healthy.
All this makes Ajayi a worthwhile add this week, especially for those looking for a high-upside tailback or a handcuff to Miller.
