The Broncos decided to give Knowshon Moreno the majority of the backfield workload in Week 12, and he did not disappoint. Moreno finished with a total of 111 yards on 24 touches against the Chiefs.
Knowshon Moreno sees fantasy value boost with approval from John Fox

John Fox said he was proud off Moreno’s effort after the game, praising his attitude after dealing with adversity throughout his career.
Fantasy Impact: It looked like the Broncos would use a committee of running backs with Willis McGahee out, but Moreno commanded almost all the carries on Sunday. Ronnie Hillman received just three handoffs, while Lance Ball kept a blank stat line throughout the afternoon.
Moreno looks to be locked in as the feature back in Denver. However, considering it was a complete surprise he started this week, fantasy owners need to keep an eye out for any news surrounding this situation. Moreno should be picked up right away, though.
