Fantasy Pulse: Alfred Morris owners rejoice in productive 3rd quarter

Geoff Burke / Reuters

Washington Redskins running back Alfred Morris may not have gotten the kind of usage fantasy owners would like through the first three quarters of Thursday night's game against the New York Giants, but he did enough with those touches to make for a productive day.

Morris entered the third quarter with six carries for 31 yards and two receptions for one yard, but he turned his six third-quarter touches into 55 yards and a touchdown.

Morris entered the night without a single reception for the season, but has three through as many quarters.

The Redskins certainly needed to get the most out of Morris in the frame as quarterback Kirk Cousins had the worst quarter of his young career, throwing three interceptions.
