Gaskins carried the ball twice during Sunday's loss to the Lions, tallying 12 yards.
It's hard to put a finger on Gaskins' role in the offense. After totaling seven carries in Week 9 against Atlanta, Gaskins didn't touch the ball again until Week 15, where he showed some receiving ability by hauling in six catches. Then Gaskins followed up that performance by not seeing a pass come his way on Sunday. Gaskins has yet to top 52 total yards in a game or score, so his value was already minimal. A lack of any sort of defined role solidifies him as an untouchable in the free agency pool.
