Kobe Lewis

The runway is clear for Lewis to be one of college football’s biggest workhorses. Jonathan Ward took 183 carries last season, 35 of which came in the red zone and 13 of those resulted in touchdowns. Lewis had 44 red zone carries by comparison and only eight of them went for scores. With the potential for even more red zone rushes, Lewis’ touchdown count could spike this season. Meanwhile, Central Michigan has very little in terms of proven depth at running back behind Lewis, so his rushing share should be among the highest in the nation. As for Lewis’ skill set, he averaged 5.9 YPC on 182 carries and also caught 76 percent of his targets in 2019. That type of explosiveness and efficiency with a major workload increase on tap make Lewis one of the top fantasy running back options in the nation this season.
