Who Should I Start? Alvin Kamara or Brian Thomas Jr.

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) was back at practice on Thursday after suffering an ankle injury during the team's practice on Wednesday, according to ESPN's Katherine Terrell. Kamara was officially listed on the Wednesday injury report as limited, but it appears he's trending towards being fine for the team's Week 6 matchup against the New England Patriots. Kamara has recorded 360 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown on 90 total touches through five games this season. If he were to miss any time, Saints running back Kendre Miller would likely dominate backfield touches in New Orleans. Assuming Kamara will be good to go on Sunday, he profiles as a low-end fantasy RB2 in Week 6 against New England.

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Brian Thomas Jr. caught four of six targets for 80 yards in Monday night's 31-28 win over the Chiefs. Thomas led the team in targets, catches, and receiving yards. He hauled in a beautiful deep ball from Trevor Lawrence for a 33-yard gain that set up the game-winning touchdown. That is a great sign to see moving forward and hopefully signals that their chemistry and connection are heading in the right direction. It's been a frustrating start for the second-year star, catching just 16 of 38 targets for 244 yards and one rushing touchdown on the season. He'll look to get on track at home next week against the Seahawks.
