Who Should I Start? A.J. Dillon or George Holani

Philadelphia Eagles running back A.J. Dillon was the only other member of the Philly backfield to get any action in Week 6, carrying the ball once and grabbing two receptions in the loss. Dillon played just 14% of snaps once again, but seems to have cemented himself as the primary handcuff option for if Saquon Barkley goes down. If managers have Barkley and some extra room on the bench, Dillon isn't a bad piece to add just in case. But for now, that's his only fantasy value. He should not be in lineups for his upcoming matchup against the Vikings.

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani (hamstring) was removed from the team's final injury report on Friday and will be active for the NFC Championship game on Sunday against the division-rival Los Angeles Rams, according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. Holani was placed on Injured Reserve on Nov. 29, but he was activated this week and will help give the Seahawks more backfield depth after Zach Charbonnet (knee) suffered a season-ending torn ACL in last weekend's Divisional Round win over the San Francisco 49ers. Kenneth Walker III should handle a big workload as the team's RB1 against the Rams, but Holani could be the RB2 in his first game back. Fantasy managers shouldn't have high expectations for Holani in his first time back on the field, though, and he could even share touches with Velus Jones Jr. He had only 22 carries during the regular season for 73 yards and one TD.
