Mack catapulted into the top 10 at the running back position with ten total touchdowns and 1111 combined rushing and receiving yards last year. His 13.4 points per game were better than David Johnson, Phillip Lindsay, and Leonard Fournette, and he scored three more rushing touchdowns than Ezekiel Elliott.
The Colts did not add a young running back in the draft or and have put veteran Spencer Ware on the PUP list, lending credence to the narrative that the team intends on using Mack as their first and second down back and Nyheim Hines as the receiving back once again in 2019.
Another 10-touchdown season for Mack is not out of the question based on the fact that the Colts project to be a top-10 offense and the offensive line for Indy is one of the best in the league. But the fact that Mack is not a heavily used back in the passing game will limit his ability to finish as an elite fantasy running back especially in PPR leagues.

 Marlon Mack practicing in full
Parris Campbell likely to return in Week 14 as well

FFToday's Take: Mack is likely to return following a two-week absence, but he'll do so against perhaps the toughest run defense in the league in Tampa Bay. Owners may have no choice to start him given the likelihood he'll push for 20 touches, but he's not going to have a ton of upside this week. Although owners can't start Campbell with any confidence this week, he makes for an intriguing stash in an banged-up offense that has been waiting all year to get him involved.
