Who Should I Start? A.J. Dillon or Jordan James

Philadelphia Eagles running back A.J. Dillon is in line to back up Saquon Barkley against the Rams this week, with new backfield acquisition Tank Bigsby set to be third on the depth chart. This comes after RB Will Shipley has been ruled out with an oblique injury. Bigsby is yet to get any touches with his new team, and it's unlikely Dillon will get many looks either with Barkley seeing 81.3% of snaps on offense so far this season. While Dillon is the better option of the two benchwarmers, he's still not a reliable starting RB in fantasy for Week 3.

San Francisco 49ers running back Jordan James (finger) logged a week of full practices for the first time this season and carries no designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. The rookie missed the season opener while recovering from a broken finger suffered in August, and was a healthy scratch in Week 2 after logging just one full practice that week. Expectations for James in Week 3 should be kept to a minimum. The 49ers have employed a steady rotation of Christian McCaffrey and Brian Robinson Jr., with third-stringer Isaac Guerendo yet to see an offensive snap. Unless McCaffrey or Robinson succumbs to an injury, James can be left off fantasy football rosters.
