The Jacksonville Jaguars’ backfield has been a mess this season. A big reason why has been the inability of T.J. Yeldon to improve in his second NFL season.
Fantasy football start/sit advice, Week 8: T.J. Yeldon a bad play vs. Titans
T.J. Yeldon and the Jaguars have struggled mightily at running the ball this year.


After a promising rookie season, Yeldon has struggled to break out this season with just 200 rushing yards and one score on 60 carries (3.3 avg.). He is now losing carries to backup Chris Ivory, making his already low value even lower heading into Week 8.
Yeldon has gotten just 12 carries over the past two games while catching two passes for 9 yards. The only good news for him is Ivory has been pretty ineffective as well, so perhaps Yeldon will start getting more touches again.
It will be interesting to see how the Jaguars divide up the snaps Thursday when they face the Tennessee Titans.
Fantasy Impact: Yahoo! ranks Yeldon as the 31st-best running back in Week 8. He faces a Titans defense allowing the eighth-fewest fantasy points to running backs this season.
Keep Yeldon on the bench this week.
