Who Should I Start? Aaron Jones or D'Andre Swift

Friday, December 20, 5:09 PM

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones has another exploitable outing on tap in Week 16 in a road tilt with the Seattle Seahawks. The veteran is in the midst of a nice stretch, with a touchdown in four straight games and three appearances of at least 16 fantasy points. He's commanded fewer targets recently than earlier in the season (likely due to the emergence of Jordan Addison). However, he has still registered at least two receptions in all but two contests. Despite allowing just nine rushing scores, Seattle has favored fantasy RBs in 2024 -; letting up the seventh-most rushing yards (109.43) and tenth-most fantasy points per game (24.8) to running backs. Jones clocks in as RotoBaller's PPR RB16 in this week's ranks.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift amassed 79 yards on 19 carries in his team's 30-12 loss against the Minnesota Vikings. He added ten more through the air on his lone target. Swift bounced back in this one after a poor string of games on the ground, during which he averaged 35.7 yards per game and 2.82 YPC. Still, it wasn't enough to get him to double-digit fantasy points -- a feat he's failed to accomplish since Week 11. In his and his team's defense, they've been through quite the gauntlet of defenses over the last four weeks (MIN [twice], DET, SF). However, there is no denying that the Bears' offense lacks execution. The 25-year-old will get a rematch with Chicago's division-rival Detroit Lions in Week 16 and could be a candidate for a decent outing with the Lions' mounting injuries on the defensive side of the ball.
