LeSean McCoy runs and Darren Sproles jukes in MNF win
Philadelphia Eagles running back LeSean McCoy rushed for 79 yards and a touchdown in the win over the Indianapolis Colts on Monday Night Football. Darren Sproles came up big as well. We bring you the fantasy implications here.
Fantasy impact: McCoy is going to get the bulk of the carries and remains a good play in fantasy but it is clear that Sproles carries fantasy value too, particularly in PPR leagues. Sproles caught every target he received from quarterback Nick Foles and the Eagles offense should continue to produce good fantasy points for fantasy players. The Eagles will face the Washington Redskins in Week 3 who played good defense against the Ryan Fitzpatrick led Houston Texans and the Chad Henne led Jacksonville Jaguars.
