Who Should I Start? Austin Ekeler or Amon-Ra St. Brown

Friday, November 15, 12:22 AM

Washington Commanders running back Austin Ekeler rushed for just seven yards on two carries during Thursday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He was much more heavily involved in the passing game, catching eight of his nine targets for an additional 89 yards through the air. The veteran running back was the Commanders' leading receiver as quarterback Jayden Daniels threw a heavy amount of short-range passes on Thursday night. The 29-year-old has posted at least 17 fantasy points (PPR) in each of his last three games and should be treated as a strong RB3 option going into Week 12 against the Dallas Cowboys.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown dominated the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 11, catching all 11 of his targets for 161 yards and two touchdowns in a 52-6 rout. St. Brown extended his touchdown streak to eight consecutive games, cementing his status as a top-tier fantasy option. Heading into Sunday night, he ranks as the WR1 for the week and No. 2 fantasy scorer overall. This was his fifth game this season with 20 or more PPR fantasy points, showcasing his elite consistency in Detroit's high-powered offense. St. Brown remains a must-start WR1 heading into Week 12 as the Lions face the Indianapolis Colts.
