Who Should I Start? Christian McCaffrey or Bhayshul Tuten

Saturday, November 15, 4:31 AM

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey had his second-lowest rushing total of the season in Week 10, gaining just 30 yards on the ground on 12 carries against the Rams. McCaffrey hasn't been as productive in the run game as he has been in years past, averaging 62.6 rushing yards per game in 2025. Still, McCaffrey has been an invaluable fantasy asset thanks to what he has done as a receiver. The double-threat is second in the NFL in receptions behind only Ja'Marr Chase and sixth in receiving yards. In Week 11, McCaffrey will do plenty of damage against the Arizona Cardinals. Last week, Arizona gave up 181 rushing yards and two touchdowns to the Seahawks' running backs. McCaffrey is a regular contender for overall RB1, and his projection for Week 11 is no different.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten had a season-high nine carries for 29 yards and scored his third touchdown of the year in the Week 9 overtime win over the Las Vegas Raiders. However, Tuten was unable to build on that performance in the Week 10 loss to the Houston Texans, carrying the ball just four times for five yards while catching one of his two targets for five additional yards. The 23-year-old played a season-high 27% of the offensive snaps, but fellow rookie LeQuint Allen Jr. saw a season-high 32% of the snaps as well. Travis Etienne Jr. remains the Jags' clear top back in Jacksonville, even though Tuten has teased fantasy managers in his rookie season with explosiveness and power out of the backfield. Tuten has fantasy value as a handcuff to Etienne, but he'll continue to be hard to trust as a touchdown-dependent RB4 heading into a Week 11 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers.
