Jets' Le'Veon Bell excited to get Sam Darnold back in Week 6
New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell told reporters on Wednesday that "Sam is probably one of the most valuable players on the team" and that "Sam can help the team tremendously".
What It Means:
Bell has averaged 14.2 FanDuel points per game despite the miserable state of the Jets' offense. Darnold's return to the team should lead to an increase in Bell's efficiency and scoring opportunities, finally enabling him to turn his volume of touches into elite production. In Week 6, Bell will face a Dallas Cowboys run defense rated 21st overall by our power rankings.
numberFire's models project Bell for 18 FanDuel points in Week 6. His projection includes 79.6 rush yards, .47 rushing touchdowns, and 5 receptions for 38.1 receiving yards. He is priced at $6,800 and is the RB5 in our weekly rankings.
