(RotoWire) Fred Jackson has been told he'll be carrying the lion's share of the rushing load now that it's him and Spiller as the top two backs on the roster, BuffaloBills.com reports.
Analysis: We didn't expect the Bills would make Spiller the lead back just because Jackson has more experience, is a better blocker, and has always had a high YPC. While Jackson looks to have the most to gain here, don't discount Spiller's uptick either. He might get 10 carries a game now, plus he'll factor into the receiving game and will remain a key return guy. The only sour part is that this team is so bad that they probably won't be scoring much this year. However, Spiller is one injury away from being an every-week starter, and even now he probably won't kill you during bye-week crunches or when you're desperate for a guy who might have a big play or two each week.
