Nyheim Hines, RB, Indianapolis Colts

Yahoo Ownership: 22%

Marlon Mack left the Colts' Week 12 win early due to a concussion, putting his Week 13 status in doubt.

In Mack's absence on Sunday, Nyheim Hines was the next man up, recording 9 carries for 28 yards while adding 2 catches for 22 yards. Jordan Wilkins had three catches but didn't record a carry.

With Mack playing in just seven games this year, we have a decent sample size of the Colts' backfield without him. Hines has averaged exactly seven catches per game in Indy's four Mack-less outings. Here are Hines PPR outputs in the four full games Mack has missed: 12.2, 9.3, 28.3, 16.0.

If Mack misses the Week 13 clash at Jacksonville, Hines would be on the flex radar in standard leagues, and he could be a fringe RB2 in PPR formats.
