Gets first carry of season
FBMinnesota Vikings
December 13, 2023
Ham logged eight of the Vikings' 72 snaps on offense and carried once for seven yards in Sunday's 3-0 win over the Raiders.
ANALYSIS
Ham's carry was his first of the season, and though he produced one of the bigger gains of the day in a game where neither offense could get much going, don't expect the Minnesota coaching staff to go out of its way to manufacture touches for him in future contests. Like most fullbacks, Ham will be deployed primarily as a run blocker or pass protector whenever he's on the field.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2018
2017
Ham is a rarity in the NFL, a true blocking fullback. He had just seven rushes last season despite playing 360 snaps on offense. He did have a career-high 17 receptions. While new head coach Kevin O'Connell has praised Ham, it seems like the pass-oriented coach will utilize a fullback less than prior years.
Ham switched from running back to fullback after spending the 2016 season on the practice squad. While he wasn't utilized consistently on offense, he still managed to record 204 offensive snaps on the season and adding an additional 290 snaps on special teams. Under contract through 2019, Ham should retain his role as fullback in 2018.
Ham spent last season the practice squad after playing running back in the preseason. He changed positions and will try to make the roster as a fullback this summer.
