Who Should I Start? Alec Ingold or Kyle Monangai

Sunday, November 24, 11:33 AM

Miami Dolphins fullback Alec Ingold (calf) and left tackle Terron Armstead (knee) are officially active for Week 12 against the New England Patriots. Ingold had been listed as questionable after logging three limited practices in a row. He was healthy for Miami's first eight games before missing each of their last two contests. His return to the lineup gives the Dolphins an extra backfield blocker, as well as a big-bodied playmaker who can run the ball and catch passes. Armstead had also been listed as questionable, but his status was far more iffy given that he didn't practice at all this week. In the end, though, he's going to play against the Patriots, serving as a reliable protector for Tua Tagovailoa and the offensive backfield.

Chicago Bears rookie running back Kyle Monangai has moved past Roschon Johnson as the team's RB2. Monangai has logged 13 carries for 44 yards and added three catches for 23 yards, playing on 29% of Chicago's snaps. Johnson, meanwhile, has yet to see an offensive snap in 2025. Starter D'Andre Swift continues to lead the backfield but has struggled to find rhythm, averaging just 3.5 yards per carry. This week brings a difficult matchup against a Raiders defense that has allowed the 10th-fewest fantasy points to running backs. With Swift (hip) questionable to play in Week 4, Monangai's value could substantially increase if Swift weren't able to suit up. For now, Monangai remains off the fantasy radar, but his steady role as the No. 2 option could grow in value with the Bears heading into their bye week in Week 5.
