Falcons running back Jacquizz Rodgers has a tough matchup Week 8 against the Cardinals.
Arizona has been solid against opposing running backs, holding them to 13.71 Fantasy points per game. The team has yet to allow a rushing touchdown by a back this season. Running backs have averaged just 46.71 yards against Arizona.
On top of that, Steven Jackson has returned to practice and could play this week. While it's unclear whether Jackson will play at this time, his return should signal a decrease in Rodgers' workload. Based on how successful Rodgers has been the past few weeks, there's a chance he still sees his fair share of carries once Jackson returns. Even if Jackson is out this week, Rodgers still isn't a strong play.
