Who Should I Start? Aaron Jones Sr. or Jaylen Wright

Sunday, December 7, 5:05 PM

Minnesota Vikings running back Aaron Jones Sr. put together a solid, if unremarkable, fantasy day by rushing for 76 yards on only 14 carries as the Vikings routed Washington 31-0 on Sunday. While the veteran was effective on the ground, his overall fantasy output was lessened with no touchdowns and no catches on a single target. Backfield mate Jordan Mason scored the lone rushing touchdown of the game as Minnesota split carries 14-11 in favor of Jones. Most encouragingly, quarterback J.J. McCarthy completed 16 of 23 passes and threw three touchdowns with no interceptions, and the offense predictably opened up with some semblance of a passing game. Managers will hope for a similar showing from Jones and the Vikings in a plus matchup with Dallas in Week 15.

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright had a career day in Week 14's 34-10 win over the New York Jets after De'Von Achane (ribs) exited early. Wright finished with 24 carries for 107 yards and a touchdown while also seeing three targets but not hauling in any of them. The second-year back has only been active in six games this season, with 10 touches being his most in a game, which came back in the Week 8 blowout win against the Atlanta Falcons. He's been firmly behind rookie Ollie Gordon II in the pecking order for touches, but Wright operated ahead of Gordon in this game after Achane left in the second quarter due to a rib injury. Gordon also punched in a touchdown on seven carries. The severity of Achane's injury is currently unknown, but Wright would emerge as a priority waiver-wire addition if Achane were to miss any time.
