3. Did the Jaguars blow it spending big free agent bucks on Chris Ivory when it seems like TJ Yeldon is the more productive runner? How does the Jacksonville backfield shape up the rest of the season? Fantasy players need to know!

So far the returns on Chris Ivory aren’t great, but the veteran back is still trying to get back to 100% after an undisclosed medical emergency sidelined him for the first two weeks. He’s flashed some of the power running that’s made him great over the years, but he still has a ways to go.

I would expect Yeldon to continue starting and receiving more carries than Ivory for the time being. That said, I expect Ivory to take over as the primary back by mid-season if he is healthy by then.
