Ron Stewart on Rico Dowdle

Dowdle down to RB21 as Hubbard reclaims lead role in committee.

Downgraded from RB 16 to RB 21 after losing snap share to Chuba Hubbard in week 13. Dowdle outplayed Hubbard early after the latter's return from injury, but the split has now shifted decisively toward Hubbard (38-27 snaps in week 13). Ron Stewart projects a messy committee approach with Dowdle on early downs and Hubbard in passing situations, positioning both as back-end RB 2/mid-range RB 3 options. Stewart notes the backfield is losing steam and suggests a hot-hand approach will determine usage week-to-week; suggests RB 21 ranking may still be too high for Dowdle.
