Who Should I Start? Blake Corum or Woody Marks

Sunday, January 4, 3:26 PM

Los Angeles Rams running back Blake Corum (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the Arizona Cardinals. He missed two consecutive practices before logging a limited session on Friday, and he was officially listed as questionable entering this weekend. Corum had exited last Monday's game early, so it's encouraging that he's able to get back onto the field just six days later. He should continue to get involved as the No. 2 running back behind Kyren Williams. Corum has logged 50 carries, 346 rushing yards, and five rushing touchdowns in his last five games. He ranks as a strong RB3/flex option this week.

Across 16 games in his rookie campaign, Houston Texans running back Woody Marks has recorded 196 carries for 703 yards and two touchdowns while adding 24 catches for 208 yards and three scores on 36 targets. Marks has operated as Houston's lead back for most of the season, but he's been one of the least efficient runners in the league, averaging 3.59 yards per carry, which ranks 48th out of 49 RBs with at least 100 carries. The rookie fourth-rounder hasn't been very dynamic on his high volume of touches, and he will now face a stout Pittsburgh Steelers defense that allowed the fewest rushing yards per game (73.3) over the final four weeks of the season. Marks profiles as a risky RB3/flex for the Wild-Card round matchup on Monday night.
