Who Should I Start? Aaron Jones or Tyjae Spears

Sunday, December 8, 5:33 PM

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones handled 13 carries for 73 yards and a score in his team's 42-21 victory over the Atlanta Falcons in Week 14. He added 11 yards on 2-of-2 receiving. The former Green Bay Packer bounced back again from a down week, this time with his best efficiency since way back in Week 7 (5.62 YPC). It was Jones' third touchdown over the last three weeks. Additionally, it was his first time in four games without a fumble -- an encouraging outcome for the 29-year-old. While his yardage totals haven't been outrageous, the former fifth-round pick has been a reliable RB2 in 2024. Jones gets a rematch with the Chicago Bears next Monday, who he just totaled 129 yards and a TD against back in Week 12.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears rushed six times for 21 yards while adding one catch for two yards in the 10-6 loss to Jacksonville on Sunday. It was the first week in a while. Spears did not appear on the injury report, but his full health did not lead to more opportunities. Jacksonville surprisingly held the Titans in check all afternoon, but Tony Pollard was still able to put up 124 yards on 23 touches while Spears operated as the clear-cut backup once again. It's been mostly the same story all season for Spears, who has taken a back seat to Pollard even when he's been healthy enough to get on the field. The second-year back out of Tulane should be well off the fantasy radar next week vs. Cincinnati.
