Miami Dolphins running back Knowshon Moreno is expected to see 8-10 carries against the Green Bay Packers in Week 6. He has been out since Week 2 due to a dislocated elbow.
Knowshon Moreno could get 8-10 touches for fantasy owners
Knowshon Moreno is expected to be back in Week 6. We break down the fantasy implications.


Moreno was fantastic against the New England Patriots in Week 1, rushing for 134 yards on 24 carries. While he was out, Lamar Miller stepped up as the featured back, posting a massive 5.7 yards per carry for season totals of 277 rushing yards and two scores.
Even if Moreno gets 8-10 touches, Miller should still get touches in the teens and could put up nice fantasy value. Plus, he was really just sharing some carries with Daniel Thomas, so Thomas is really the big loser here.
Fantasy impact: The Dolphins have been running the ball well and the Packers haven’t stopped the run. Miller should be viewed as a solid RB2 while Moreno is a risky flex, but he should obviously be owned in all leagues.
