When LeSean McCoy was diagnosed with a torn MCL, all eyes shifted to impressive rookie Karlos Williams despite Mike Gillislee warming up with the starters entering their Week 16 game.

Yet, despite falling under the radar, Gillislee still turned 9 rush attempts against the Cowboys' 26th-ranked rushing defense into 93 yards and a touchdown -- and narrowly missing out on a second touchdown when he was brought down at the one yard line -- to contribute a stellar 6.12 Rushing NEP to help his team to a Week 16 win.

This upcoming week, despite the timeshare with Williams and a matchup with the Jets' seventh-ranked run defense, Gillislee should see just enough work to make for a decent add for those hurting at the running back position in final week of the season.
