Who Should I Start? Aaron Jones Sr. or Trey McBride

Friday, November 14, 6:53 PM

Running back Aaron Jones Sr. (shoulder/toe) of the Minnesota Vikings does not appear on the Week 11 injury report and should be considered an RB2 option when his team plays host to NFC North rival Chicago on Sunday. Since the veteran returned from a hamstring injury that required a stint on injured reserve, he has clearly been the favored option over backfield mate Jordan Mason. Jones played more than 70% of the team's offense snaps against Baltimore in Week 10, and he's shown he can help managers even when the offense is struggling. Despite a sloppy overall game last week, Jones still managed 47 rushing yards and a touchdown on nine carries, and three catches for 22 yards. Jones already has a steady role in a decent offense, but there is some added potential this week against a Bears defense that has been middling against fantasy running backs.

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride caught 10 of his 11 targets for 115 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 11 loss against the San Francisco 49ers. McBride was already the top weapon in Arizona's passing attack, but he took on an even larger role this week with Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) sidelined. The tight end benefited from Jacoby Brissett completing 47 passes, which is a new NFL all-time single-game record. McBride now has five consecutive games with a touchdown, scoring six different times in that span. He'll remain a must-start, high-end TE1 even after Harrison returns to action. The Cardinals will host the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 12.
