Justin Forsett continued to look like the Boncos' lead back in Week 15, out-touching Devontae Booker 14 to 8. Denver's offense really struggled as a whole, so it's not surprising that Forsett only mustered 53 yards. The most important takeaway is his usage, particularly in the passing game, where he caught four of five targets.

If Forsett sees similar usage in Week 16, he could reward fantasy owners against a Kansas City Chiefs defense that has struggled to stop the run in recent weeks. The Chiefs have given up 100-plus yards on the ground in three straight games and have allowed 4.4 yards per attempt (eighth-worst) this season.

Most recently, they just allowed DeMarco Murray and Derrick Henry to combine for 199 yards and 2 scores against them.

If in need of help at running back in deeper leagues, Forsett could be a difference maker for your team in a plus-matchup.
