Who Should I Start? Alvin Kamara or D'Andre Swift

Friday, October 10, 2:38 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara (ankle) is questionable to play in the team's Week 6 game against the New England Patriots, according to Rod Walker of The New Orleans Advocate. Kamara has been listed as a limited practice participant this week after suffering an ankle injury during practice on Wednesday. The 30-year-old has recorded 360 scrimmage yards and one touchdown on 90 total touches. If he were unable to play in Week 6, Saints running back Kendre Miller would be in line for a significant workload increase. Assuming Kamara can suit up, he profiles as a high-end RB3/flex option in Week 6 against New England.

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (hip) is officially active for Sunday's Week 4 contest against the Las Vegas Raiders. He was listed as questionable after being a limited participant in practice. Swift has delivered modest production through the first three games of the season, amassing 143 rushing yards, 69 receiving yards, and one touchdown. He ranks as the 24th-best running back in terms of fantasy scoring but should really be viewed as a mid-to-low RB3/flex, especially given that his snap share has declined since Week 1. We could see more Kyle Monangai on Sunday, but Swift will still be the primary option.
