Who Should I Start? Ashton Jeanty or RJ Harvey

Sunday, November 23, 9:26 PM

Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty had an underwhelming day on the ground in his team's Week 12 loss to the Cleveland Browns, recording just 50 rushing yards on 17 carries. However, the 21-year-old saved his fantasy production with a monster day as a receiver, recording eight catches for 58 yards and a touchdown on eight targets. With the Raiders' depleted offensive line struggling to open up holes in the ground game, receiving work has become an increasingly important part of Jeanty's repertoire in recent weeks. Across his last four games, Jeanty has hauled in 22 receptions for 135 yards and two touchdowns on 26 targets. He's been targeted eight times in each of the last two weeks. The Raiders' overall inability to consistently move the ball limits Jeanty's ceiling, but he still profiles as a high-volume fantasy RB2 heading into a Week 13 matchup with the Los Angeles Chargers.

Denver Broncos rookie running back R.J. Harvey could handle a workhorse role for the rest of the season. In his first game as the lead back, Harvey handled 11 carries for 30 yards, while adding 20 yards on three receptions through the air. His first game as the starter came against the Kansas City Chiefs, who have been a top-five run defense in 2025. The exciting news about the 2025 second-round pick's fantasy outlook is that he dominated the snap share in Week 11. He played a season-high 62% of the snaps, while Jaleel McLaughlin and Tyler Badie played 13%. Coming out of the bye week, the Broncos will face the Washington Commanders, who have given up the third-most fantasy points to running backs this season. With a strong workload and a good schedule coming out of the bye week, Harvey is an ideal buy-low candidate for fantasy managers and could be a league winner down the stretch.
