Who Should I Start? Alec Ingold or Kenneth Gainwell

Miami Dolphins running back Alec Ingold (calf) has been designated as questionable for the team's matchup against the New England Patriots this Sunday. It's the third consecutive week the sixth-year veteran has been given the questionable tag. Despite logging three limited practice sessions in Weeks 10 and 11, Ingold was ultimately inactive for the ensuing two contests. Miami hopes history doesn't repeat itself, as he was yet again limited all week leading up to their Week 12 home tilt. Last Sunday, the Dolphins compensated for the loss of Ingold by deploying tight ends Jonnu Smith and Julian Hill more frequently, and they may do so again if the veteran is forced to miss another game.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Kenneth Gainwell will not be in play when his team squares off against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday Night Football. The 25-year-old has settled into a nice role this season, backing up his superstar teammate Saquon Barkley. Since Week 7, Gainwell is averaging 6.8 rush attempts, 31.4 yards on the ground, and one target in his appearances. He's been a solid change-of-pace option for the Eagles but holds little standalone value for fantasy managers outside of his obvious handcuff appeal. While his snap-share is decent, he has yet to score double-digit fantasy points or a touchdown in 2024. For now, he can be stashed in case Barkley is forced to miss time but is better off being left out of fantasy lineups. Gainwell is RotoBaller's PPR RB43 in this week's ranks.
