Who Should I Start? Boston Scott or Kenneth Gainwell

Tuesday, December 26, 2:37 PM

Philadelphia Eagles running back Boston Scott notably scored at least one touchdown in all eight of his career games against the New York Giants heading into Monday. This streak began in December of 2019 and extended to January of 2023. Unfortunately, his luck ran out in Week 16 of the 2023 season. Scott rushed just one time for three yards and lost a fumble on a kick return. D'Andre Swift and Kenneth Gainwell remain the clear lead backs in Philadelphia, so Scott is nowhere near the fantasy radar.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Kenneth Gainwell took seven carries for 62 yards and failed to catch his lone target in Sunday's 10-27 loss to the New York Giants. D'Andre Swift (illness) was ruled out early on Sunday, leaving the 24-year-old as the starter for the final game of the regular season. Gainwell looked good early but was not given the ball much after the team fell behind. The Eagle's offense was in disarray, with all of their top skills players injured either before or during the game, leading to a disappointing performance for everyone involved. Swift should be good to go next week when the Eagles travel to Tampa to take on the Buccaneers, leaving Gainwell off most managers' fantasy radars in DFS and tournaments.
