With Marlon Mack out indefinitely, the Colts’ committee backfield will have to carry the load. Jonathan Williams and Hines had a majority of touches Thursday night against Houston, but Hines was impressive as well.

With nine carries for 51 yards and two catches for 10 yards, Hines is a great flex option going forward as the Colts still try to figure out issues on offense. The Colts passing offense has struggled, which means they could be looking to get Hines more involved, especially if that means getting him in the slot more.

As a great pass-catching back, Hines has a lot of upside in PPR leagues, especially this week against Tennessee.
