Who Should I Start? Chase Brown or Tyrone Tracy Jr.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown looked good in the Thanksgiving win over the Baltimore Ravens. The 25-year-old didn't find the end zone, although he still got it done for fantasy managers by finishing with 78 yards off 15 carries (5.2 YPC) while catching all seven of his targets for 35 yards. The Bengals were fortunate to get Joe Burrow (toe) back from a lengthy stint on the Injured Reserve list. Unfortunately, Tee Higgins (concussion) didn't suit up after taking a hit in the Week 12 loss to the New England Patriots. The Bengals have a few extra days to recover before the Week 14 meeting with the Bills in Buffalo. While Brown is back to being considered a must-start fantasy option, his ceiling will be higher if Higgins remains sidelined.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (hip) was carted off the field after suffering a hip injury during his team's Week 13 matchup against the New England Patriots on Monday night. Dan Salomone of Giants.com reports that Tracy Jr. is officially questionable to return. The 26-year-old back recorded 10 carries for 36 yards and one catch for -3 yards before being forced to exit the game. If he's unable to return, veteran running back Devin Singletary would be in line to handle most of New York's backfield work for the remainder of Week 13. While the exact nature of Tracy Jr.'s injury is unclear, an extended absence for Tracy Jr. would be a major loss for the Giants. With rookie running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) on Injured Reserve, Singletary would be the last back standing in New York and could be in line for a significant workload increase going forward.
