The call

He's the depth-chart RB on a 51% snap share, which is the every-down early/goal-line role fantasy managers want from an RB2 — the touches are locked in regardless of script.
The DvP composite lists JAX 9 of 32, but that's a 0-game sample at 0.00 confidence, so there's no real evidence this is a hard matchup to fade him for.
The risk is the environment: a 16.5 implied total as a 7.5-point underdog caps touchdown equity, and an 8% target share means he won't bail you out with catches if Cleveland falls behind.
At RB21 in a 24-RB-start format, 13.2 points beats the typical waiver replacement — bench him only if you're holding a clear RB2 with a better game script.
