Dobbins is a sit this week, though. I don't think gamescript is in his favor, and Jacksonville's run defense should be able to keep him from ripping off any big runs.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalBust

Dobbins' game-script sensitivity and Jacksonville's elite run defense warrant a Week 2 sit.

Dobbins reprised his early-down-only role in Week 1, playing 40.4% of snaps while handling 53.3% of designed carries and seeing only a 15.2% route share; he finished with 8 carries and 36 rushing yards. Though he looked like his normal self with a solid 12.5% explosive run rate and 3.5 yards after contact per attempt, the source recommends sitting him in Week 2 due to unfavorable game script and Jacksonville's strong run defense, which allowed the second-lowest explosive run rate, ninth-fewest yards after contact per attempt, and sixth-lowest missed tackle rate in Week 1.
