Justin Forsett came on as the "lead back" for the Denver Broncos, out-touching Devontae Booker nine-to-five. He played three fewer snaps than Booker, but it seemed pretty clear that Denver isn't confident in the rookie back heading into the playoffs.

If he continues to cut into Booker's playing time, he could be a fine play in Week 16 against a Kansas City Chiefs defense that has been gashed for over 100 yards on the ground in back to back games and has allowed 4.3 yards per attempt (eighth-worst) this season.

With run-stuffing middle linebacker Derrick Johnson out for the season, this could end up presenting a very inviting matchup for fantasy championship week.

He's still nothing more than a speculative add, but taking a shot on Forsett could pay dividends if you have the space on your bench.
