2024 Fantasy Outlook
A third-round pick of the 49ers in 2021 out of Ohio State, Sermon never earned the trust of Kyle Shanahan and was let go after his rookie season. His 2022 campaign consisted of just two games with the Eagles, and he saw significant action in only one game for the Colts last season. Sermon looks like the part of a lead back and has a three-down skill set, but he seems to lack the football IQ to make an impact in the NFL despite his physical talents. He'll compete with Evan Hull for backup duties in 2024 behind Jonathan Taylor. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Gets time late in loss
Sermon had two carries for zero total yards and one reception for seven yards in Sunday's loss at Green Bay.
ANALYSIS
Sermon played on just 18 of the offense's 56 snaps but got most of his usage late in the fourth quarter when the Colts were playing from behind. Jonathan Taylor was surprisingly on the bench late in the game after some drops earlier in the game, so Sermon and Tyler Goodson could see more of a role in the passing game.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
It was no real shock last season when a rookie stole the spotlight in the San Francisco
backfield. What might have been a surprise was which rookie running back did the deed. Taken
in the third round out of Ohio State, Sermon was overshadowed by sixth-round pick Elijah
Mitchell, who impressed his coaches more in the preseason and then took over lead-back
duties when Raheem Mostert got injured. Sermon did show what he could do in Week 4 when
both Mostert and Mitchell were sidelined, cranking out 89 rushing yards on 19 carries, but he
then saw only 12 touches the rest of the year, missing a game as a healthy scratch and then
because of an ankle injury. Sermon was waived by the 49ers in August, however, and quickly claimed by Philadelphia, where he'll provide his new team with backfield depth behind Miles Sanders, Kenneth Gainwell and Boston Scott.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
In lead for backup job
Sermon appears to be in the lead to claim the No. 2 role in the Colts backfield behind starter Jonathan Taylor, Stephen Holder of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Evan Hull and Tyler Goodson are also competing for the job, but Sermon has carried over a solid showing down the stretch in 2023 into the offseason. The 25-year-old is already on his third NFL team, but he was a third-round pick by the 49ers in 2021 and offers a more well-rounded skill set than Goodson or Hull.
