Le'Veon Bell has season-high 70 rush yards in Jets' loss

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell rushed 15 times for 70 yards and caught a 6-yard pass on 4 targets in a 33-0, Week 7 loss to the New England Patriots on Monday night.

What It Means:

Bell set a season-high in rushing yards and averaged over 4.0 yards per carry in a Jets uniform for the first time. He's seen at least 15 touches in every game but has only found the end zone in two of them. His passing-game usage has gone down, as Bell has been held to 1 reception each of the last two weeks after averaging 6.8 catches over the first four games. The Jets face a Jacksonville Jaguars defense in Week 8 that is allowing the 11th-most rushing yards per game (117.1) and eighth-most rushing yards per carry (4.8).

Bell scored a season-low 8.1 FanDuel points on Monday night. He has 326 rushing yards (3.3 per carry), 175 receiving yards, 29 catches, and 2 touchdowns this season. numberFire's Week 8 fantasy rankings have Bell as the RB9. Our models project him for 17.4 FanDuel points, at a cost of $7,000.
