Who Should I Start? Aaron Jones Sr. or Romeo Doubs

The Minnesota Vikings may have developed a rest-of-season formula last week, which could mean continued RB3/flex potential for Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder) against the Dallas Cowboys. In a 31-0 rout of Washington last week, the Vikings leaned on their running game, which led to 14 carries and 76 rushing yards for Jones. The veteran still hasn't had a breakout game this season, but has maintained a steady floor, even as the Vikings have struggled for much of the year. Additionally, he'll see a plus matchup against a Dallas defense that ranks 28th against PPR running backs and presents added potential for Jones, who has 31 targets in nine games. Jones has been battling a shoulder injury for over a month now, but has still appeared in all five games since sustaining the injury, so managers can consider him a high-floor flex option in Week 15.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs has seen a recent backslide in production, but he looks to get going again as the Packers travel to Denver to take on the Broncos in Week 15. Doubs' recent downturn coincides with Christian Watson's ascension to Green Bay's top target in the offense. While Doubs continues to run routes at a fairly solid clip, with over 72% routes per dropback in the last four games, he has just 10 receptions and 101 yards in his last four games combined. In Week 14 against the Bears, Doubs turned in his worst full-game outing of the season, with just two targets and zero receptions. Doubs had some trust from fantasy managers in the middle of the season when tight end Tucker Kraft went down with his season-ending injury, but since Watson's return, Doubs has been largely irrelevant for fantasy football. In a tough Week 15 matchup in Denver against the Broncos, consider Doubs a desperation flex play at best for fantasy.
