Alfred Morris, RB, San Francisco 49ers

Yahoo! Ownership: 18%

After starting collecting an average of 13.6 touches in his first five games of the season, Alfred Morris was suddenly replaced in the Niners' backfield by Raheem Mostert. Versus the Green Bay Packers in Week 6, Morris saw zero touches as Mostert took over as the compliment to Matt Breida. Since then, Morris has seen just 5.5 carries per game. However, with Mostert out for the season with an arm injury, Morris is lined up to resume seeing double-digit carries in the Niners' backfield

The Giants, San Fran's Week 10 opponent, have had their fair share of issues with running backs, allowing over 100 yards rushing in six of eight games this season. Their last time out, against the Washington Redskins, they gave up a season-worst 182 rushing yards with Adrian Peterson collecting 149 yards and a touchdown in Week 8.

The Niners also enter the Monday night clash as 3.0-point home favorites, setting up a favorable and possibly run-heavy game script for Morris in Week 10.
