Week 16 Overview

Gainwell went 13-80-0 on the ground and also went 7-46-0 through the air. Gainwell’s usage as a receiver has made him a much better PPR play than teammate Jaylen Warren. Warren was questionable with an illness, but Gainwell’s effectiveness could continue giving him a bigger role. Gainwell has become a start in PPR leagues moving forward, even against a tough Lions’ rush defense.

Shark Bites

The Steelers backfield has been a question mark all season with RB Jaylen Warren starting and having the primary rushing role but Kenneth Gainwell’s pass catching and blocking getting him plenty of work. Both paid off for fantasy managers this week. Warren went 14-143-2 on the ground and 2-8-0 through the air on 2 targets. Gainwell went 9-50-0 on the ground and 5-78-1 through the air on 7 targets. Gainwell’s TD came on an incredible catch at the end of the first half.
