Theo Riddick 2018 Outlook
Riddick caught 53 passes in 2017 but wasn't the same dynamic weapon as he was in previous seasons. Still, Bleacher Report contends that Riddick's injury history is the only reason that he's not a more productive back. He's an explosive threat as a runner to the edge and as a receiver out of the backfield, but the injuries have restricted him to a third-down role in Detroit. He's capable of producing more, but the Lions have wisely been cautious with his workload. Why the love? As FantasyPros noted, the 2017 Offensive Rookie of the Year Alvin Kamara broke a tackle once every 3.5 touches, the best mark in the NFL. Riddick was next-closest at 3.8 touches so he still has the skills to produce. But the concerns are obvious: Ameer Abdullah is back. So are Zach Zenner, Dwayne Washington and Tion Green. In addition, free-agent LeGarrette Blount joined the team and the Lions dealt a fourth-round pick to move up to select Kerryon Johnson in the second round of April’s draft. Toss in rookie FB Nick Bawden and you have eight guys battling for probably four or five roster spots. All that said, expect Riddick to not only be on the final roster, but also to retain his receiving back role.

Theo Riddick 2017 Outlook
Riddick, who missed the final month of the regular season last year, had surgery on both of his wrists, which prompted his season-ending trip to injured reserve. The Lions did not announce Riddick's surgery at the time he went on IR, and Riddick declined comment on his injury after the season, while he was wearing a cast on his left wrist. Riddick is expected to be a full participant in organized team activities later this spring, but his injury adds another concern for a Lions team looking at possibly upgrading its backfield this off-season. Ameer Abdullah played in parts of two games last year before undergoing season-ending foot surgery -- he also underwent surgery to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder after his rookie season of 2015 -- and Riddick missed seven games total last year, including the playoffs, with wrist and ankle injuries. The Lions finished 30th in the NFL in rushing last season, and GM Bob Quinn has been open about his desire to fix the running game this spring. So if Abdullah is back at full speed as expected, Riddick could move back into his role as the third-down/receiving specialist. It's a job he thrived in during the 2015 season.

Theo Riddick 2016 Outlook
Riddick led the NFL's running backs in catches last season. He was second in receiving yards. He set Lions franchise records in both categories. This despite the fact that a few weeks into the season, he was still working as Detroit's third tailback, behind veteran starter Joique Bell and second-round pick Ameer Abdullah. Even undrafted rookie Zach Zenner saw action before Riddick, but by the end of the year, Riddick had piled up 80 catches for 697 yards and three touchdowns, affirming his place as one of the league's biggest breakout players. Riddick was likely to be handed a bigger role this season after his strong performance as a rookie, but the team released Bell this offseason, and virtually guaranteed Riddick’s opportunity. Abdullah should be the primary rushing threat, and Zenner might replace Bell as the short-yardage power guy. No matter how those roles play out fantasy owners in PPR leagues will continue to benefit from Riddick's rise.
