Zac Stacy breaks out for fantasy owners before leaving with rib injury
Zac Stacy was having a big game before leaving with a rib injury. We bring you the fantasy implications here.
Fantasy impact: Stacy was having a nice game before leaving with a rib injury. After the game he said he only had the wind knocked out of him, but keep an eye on the situation. Stacy rushed for 78 yards on 14 carries and will clearly be the feature back going forward if healthy. Daryl Richardson is the number two back in St. Louis, and rushed for 48 yards on 13 carries. If healthy, Stacy will be continue to be the feature back with Richardson the clear number two. Isaiah Pead isn't in the mix at this point if they are both healthy. The Rams do not have a rushing touchdown on the year. The Rams will face the Houston Texans in Week 6 and they have one of the league's worst defenses against the run.
