Who Should I Start? Bhayshul Tuten or Ollie Gordon II

Tuesday, November 4, 8:09 AM

Jacksonville Jaguars running back Bhayshul Tuten matched his season-high with 10 offensive touches in Week 9, taking nine carries for 29 yards and his third NFL touchdown while also adding a catch on his only target for a loss of three yards. While he was involved, Tuten still played solidly behind Travis Etienne Jr., who had a season-high 27 touches. Tuten actually played fewer snaps than fellow rookie LeQuint Allen as well, but Allen only had two touches. The fourth-round rookie is primarily an early-down, change-of-pace option right now for the Jaguars, but he has shown enough upside to deserve a look on waiver wires if you need running back depth. He has touchdown-dependent upside going forward, even though he and the Jags have a tough matchup against the strong Texans' defense in Week 10.

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's divisional showdown with the Bills after being limited in practice all week. The injury occurred last Thursday against Baltimore, but even the extra time hasn't helped him be 100%. He was starting to get more consistent work behind De'Von Achane, including a 10-carry, 46-yard performance in Week 8 against Atlanta. On the season, Gordon II has logged 122 rushing yards and 30 receiving yards while scoring a pair of touchdowns. If he's limited or out, Jaylen Wright would likely take over as Miami's primary backup running back. Even if he's healthy, he'll be a touchdown-dependent flier play behind workhorse De'Von Achane. He's the No. 48 RB this week, so he shouldn't be started in all but the deepest of formats.
