Who Should I Start? Antonio Gibson or Ollie Gordon II

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson (knee), who was quickly ruled out in the Sunday night win over the Buffalo Bills in Week 5, suffered a torn ACL and will miss the rest of the season, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport after Gibson had an MRI exam on Monday. It's a hit to New England's backfield the rest of the way. The 27-year-old will finish the 2025 campaign with 25 rushing attempts for 106 yards and one touchdown. He added two catches for six yards on three targets through the air. Gibson wasn't really a roster candidate in 12-team fantasy leagues, but he can now safely be dropped in deeper single-year formats. Terrell Jennings will likely be elevated from the practice squad to serve as the RB3 behind Rhamondre Stevenson and rookie TreVeyon Henderson. Gibson's injury gives Henderson a clearer path to an elevated backfield workload.

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II scored his third rushing touchdown of the season on Sunday in his team's 34-10 win over the Jets. The rookie punched home a seven-yard rush in the fourth quarter and finished with five carries for 17 yards on the day. With De'Von Achane (rib) leaving the game early, it was Jaylen Wright who went off for the Dolphins, but Gordon did stay involved as a change-of-pace back. If Achane misses time, Gordon and Wright would both be worth a look in the Dolphins' offense that relies heavily on its running backs to make plays. However, it looks like Wright would probably be the primary back in that scenario. If Achane returns next week, Gordon and Wright would return to their typical minimal roles.
