The Los Angeles Rams largely passed their Wild Card round test, beating the Arizona Cardinals for a 34-11 win on Monday. They now face the challenge of traveling to the home of the defending Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the divisional round on Sunday.
Rams running back Sony Michel has been a strong offensive contributor throughout the season. We’ll be reviewing its viability as an option in your DraftKings Daily Fantasy lineup this weekend.
Fantasy Football Analysis: Rams RB Sony Michel ($5,300)
Michel completed 13 carries for 59 rushing yards in the team’s big win over the Cardinals last Monday, earning DFS users just a fantastic 5.8 points in the process. It was his second consecutive game on record under six fantastic points.
Fantastic start/sit recommendation
The presence of Cam Akers being back in the lineup reduced Michel’s numbers as a solo back. With that and the specter of coming up against a tough Bucs run defense, it would be best to Sit Michael.
