Who Should I Start? Antonio Gibson or Tank Bigsby

Monday, December 2, 2:19 AM

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson rushed seven times for 62 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's Week 13 loss to the Indianapolis Colts. While Gibson operated as the No. 2 running back behind Rhamondre Stevenson, he was more efficient than the Patriots' lead back and also scored the team's only rushing touchdown. We cannot ignore just how efficient Gibson has been lately, averaging 8.9 yards per carry Sunday and 6.2 yards per carry over his last four games. As a result, he should earn more opportunities, perhaps stealing some of Stevenson's touches going forward. We've already seen some signs of Gibson getting an increased workload as Sunday's 23.6 percent snap share was his second-highest mark since Week 6.

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Tank Bigsby was the lead back in a 10-6 victory over the Tennessee Titans. The former Auburn back finished with 18 carries for 55 yards and a touchdown, as well as one catch for seven yards. Bigsby out-touched fellow back Travis Etienne Jr. 19 to eight but was less efficient with his touches. That didn't matter from a fantasy perspective, as a rushing touchdown salvaged what would have otherwise been a mediocre fantasy output. With Mac Jones under center instead of Trevor Lawrence, Bigsby's yards per carry fell to 3.1, well below his 4.3 average for the season, but the volume was enough to still produce fantasy points. Bigsby will look to maintain this level of volume with better efficiency against the New York Jets in Week 15.
