With Steven Jackson down with a thigh injury, Falcons running back Jacquizz Rodgers will be looking to provide a spark heading into Week 3 at Miami.

Rodgers is expected to be used more in passing downs while Jason Snelling will be used in running downs and in short-yardage situations. Rodgers rushed for 17 yards on 11 carries (1.5 yards per carry) and caught four passes for 41 yards last week against the Rams. He'll face a Miami defense that allowed 133 yards on the ground against the Colts last week. Running backs have scored 13.0 Fantasy points per game thus far against the Dolphins.

At this point, it's safe to say that both Rodgers and Snelling are too big of a risk for any Fantasy owner this week. Both should be viewed as a low-end flex option for desperate Fantasy owners heading into Week 3.
