Who Should I Start? Chase Brown or Ray Davis

Monday, November 18, 12:10 AM

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown rushed for 86 yards on 22 carries during Sunday's Week 11 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. He also caught five of his seven targets for an additional 57 receiving yards. Brown has been tasked with handling a larger workload amidst Zack Moss' season-ending neck injury, and the second-year running back hasn't missed a beat. He now has three consecutive games with at least 19 fantasy points (PPR) and should be deployed as a low-end fantasy RB1 when he's back in action on the other side of the Bengals' Week 12 bye.

Buffalo Bills rookie running back Ray Davis has had his moments in his first year in the NFL, but he'll be a low-upside deep-league flex option for fantasy managers in a Week 11 showdown against the undefeated Kansas City Chiefs and their stingy defense. Not only will Davis continue to have limited volume behind lead back James Cook, but the Chiefs defense has allowed the fewest half-PPR fantasy points to RBs through 10 weeks in 2024. The 25-year-old played only 11 of the team's 74 offensive snaps in the Week 10 win over the Indianapolis Colts, finishing with three carries for six yards. Davis is an explosive back and is one of the better stashes at the position in fantasy, especially if you have Cook rostered, but in terms of weekly value, he leaves a lot to be desired with limited usage. He's averaging 4.2 yards per carry on 64 attempts for 268 yards and two TDs in his first 10 NFL games.
