From the article

Gainwell is 16th in yards per route run (1.46) and tied for fourth in targets per route run (0.25). A closer game would probably benefit Irving, while a negative game script could lead to Gainwell playing more as the passing-down back.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Gainwell's elite target share offers passing-down upside in negative game script.

Gainwell is a strong DFS option against Cincinnati's weak run defense. Among 50 running backs with at least 250 routes run since 2024, Gainwell ranks 16th in yards per route run (1.46) and tied for 4th in targets per route run (0.25). Cincinnati allowed the most DraftKings points per game (28.4) and FanDuel points per game (26.0) to running backs last year. A negative game script could lead to Gainwell playing more as the passing-down back.
