Who Should I Start? Bam Knight or Kalel Mullings

Sunday, August 24, 8:09 AM

Arizona Cardinals running back Bam Knight saved his best game for last in the preseason victory over the Las Vegas Raiders on Saturday. The 24-year-old led all rushers in yards and touchdowns after he registered 83 yards on five carries and a big 67-yard touchdown run. Knight was able to find a hole right up the middle and break away from the Raiders' defense at the end of the third quarter. There hasn't been any official word on the depth chart yet, but Knight could have put plenty of pressure on Emari Demercado and DeeJay Dallas for the final RB spot.

Tennessee Titans running back Kalel Mullings (ankle) is a strong candidate to operate as the team's No. 2 running back if he's healthy enough to play in Sunday's season opener against the Denver Broncos. There's a void on the depth chart behind Tony Pollard now that Tyjae Spears (ankle) has been placed on injured reserve, but Mullings' status is up in the air since he's dealing with an ankle issue of his own. We should get more information on his injury when the Titans publish their first practice report of the season on Wednesday. If Mullings is able to practice in a limited or full capacity at all this week, he'll have a chance to suit up for Week 1. If that happens, he would become an intriguing change-of-pace option behind Pollard while carrying some value as a potential stash in dynasty and redraft leagues. However, if Mullings doesn't play, he can be avoided in redraft formats while Julius Chestnut steps into a bigger role behind Pollard.
