Summary

Host Ian Hartitz breaks down Antonio Gibson's fantasy outlook ahead of the 2021 season. We know Gibson is the team's best early-down option, which is something we couldn't attest to before last season. The pint-sized elephant in the room: J.D. McKissic. Ian explains why the nature of McKissic's targets last season shows us why we should expect him to be less involved in the 2021 version of this offense. Ultimately, Gibson is a borderline RB1 that you should be happy to have on your fantasy team this season and beyond.

0:46.3

Like, you see every single thing since he's been selected, six, six overall, screams running

0:51.3

back, except when he go back to Memphis and you see that he only had 33 career rush attempts.

0:56.5

44 career receptions.

0:58.2

The guy was playing more of a wide receiver running back, high bid roll.

1:01.0

I don't know what they're putting in the water of Memphis, but similar to what we saw

1:04.6

out this year.

1:10.6

So Gibson, you know, was really the one of the first or just, I guess, the most successful
