There are three major reasons why Dion Lewis’ 2019 fantasy football outlook is not good.

Tennessee Titans running back Dion Lewis had a solid season in PPR in 2018, but expect his numbers to take a dip in 2019.

Lewis proved to be a solid all-around back once again after he totaled 517 yards on the ground and 400 through the air on 67 targets. His 917 total yards and two touchdowns were good enough for a finish of RB28 in PPR, per Fantasy Pros.

This season brings a ton of new challenges for Lewis to even sniff that kind of production. The Titans have a vastly improved offense thanks to new personnel, and as a result Lewis’ opportunities to produce will undoubtedly take a hit.

A lot of things had to go right for Lewis to post even the decent numbers he did last season, but don’t expect that to happen again. If you do, you might be very disappointed.

Here’s why, at best, Lewis is a bench stash in PPR who could have a few good weeks, and no better than a late-round selection in fantasy drafts.
