FLEX Position

What does FLEX Position mean?

The FLEX slot accepts a running back, wide receiver, or tight end. It gives you lineup flexibility but also creates tough decisions when two strong options at different positions both fit. Most standard leagues run one FLEX slot; PPR leagues often run two.
