Who Should I Start? Breece Hall or Bijan Robinson

Saturday, September 13, 10:59 AM

New York Jets running back Breece Hall will look to build off his strong start this Sunday when his team hosts their division rival, the Buffalo Bills, at MetLife Stadium. The Jets' offense was flying high in Week 1 despite ultimately losing out in a shootout to former teammate Aaron Rodgers. Hall saw new quarterback Justin Fields rush in two scores in the loss, although he operated as New York's primary rusher, toting 19 carries to a combined eight for backfield mates Braelon Allen and Isaiah Davis. Moreover, he saw four targets - the second-most on the team. The 24-year-old boasted just one outing of over 100 rushing yards in 2024, and he'll get a chance to eclipse the century mark again this weekend. Buffalo was torched by the Baltimore Ravens in Week 1 for 238 yards on the ground, and Hall and Fields could give the team fits again when they visit East Rutherford, New Jersey. He's a fringe RB1 - RotoBaller's PPR RB11 - ahead of Week 2's slate.

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson ran into a wall in Week 1 versus the Buccaneers, gaining just 24 yards on 12 attempts. However, he salvaged his day in the passing game, garnering seven targets and catching six of them for 100 yards receiving, which included a 50-yard touchdown scamper. The 23-year-old could have a tough go of it on the ground again in Week 2 on the road in Minnesota against a stout Vikings run defense that allowed just 53 yards rushing to running backs in Week 1, and allowed the second-fewest rush yards per game in 2024. Robinson did gain 92 yards against the Vikings in their 2024 matchup, but it took him 22 carries to get there. Averaging more than four targets per game a year ago and with a healthy dose of targets in Week 1, expect the former first-round draft pick to be heavily involved in both phases again, and with his ability to find the end zone, he shapes up as a top-five option at the position in Week 2.
