Get Ready to Start Thomas Rawls in Week 2

For Week 2 of the 2016 Fantasy Football season, Thomas Rawls is on track to start against the St. Louis Rams.

In Week 1, I was lucky enough to win even though I benched Thomas Rawls and had Gary Barnidge put up a big goose egg.

And because Christine Michael got the start last week, I’m not surprised to see people asking this question:

Should I start Thomas Rawls in Week 2?

The answer is yes! In Week 2 Rawls definitely has a starting spot on my roster.

According to the Seattle Times, offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell said that Rawls “has been our guy.” Rawls added that he believes he is supposed to have a huge workload in Week 2.

The Seahawks will face the Los Angeles Rams in Week 2, and this looks like a very promising matchup. Carlos Hyde was able to run for 88 yards and score two touchdowns against this defense, and sleeper pick Shaun Draughn also scored a rushing touchdown.

With the coaching staff feeling confident enough to name Rawls the starter and an easy matchup, hopefully this is the game where Rawls starts a promising 2016 Fantasy Football campaign.
