Kenneth Dixon's 2016 season didn't get off to the best start as he missed the first four games with a sprained knee. But slowly, Dixon has been gaining steam. While teammate Terrance West has been holding around 40% of the snap count in recent weeks, it's West who has continued to see his numbers rise, and Week 11 was Dixon's highest to date at 38% of offensive snaps.

While Dixon and his teammates struggled against a stout Dallas pass defense, Week 10 against the Cleveland Browns showed what he may be capable of -- as he took 11 touches for 80 yards. Dixon only has 27 rushes on the season, but his Rushing Success Rate -- the percentage of rushes that result in Positive Net Expected Points (NEP) -- checks in at 51.9%, well above the league average of 40.2%.

Dixon has clearly carved out a role in this offense and slowly is garnering more and more playing time. He may a players you can grab on the cheap who could see a much bigger role next season.
