Who Should I Start? Clyde Edwards-Helaire or Breece Hall

Saturday, November 1, 2:09 PM

The Kansas City Chiefs have elevated running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire from their practice squad for the team's Week 9 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. With running back Isiah Pacheco (knee) out, Edwards-Helaire will give the Chiefs a little extra depth in their running back room. Veteran back Kareem Hunt should be expected to serve as the team's early-down and goal-line rusher, with rookie Brashard Smith mixing in in a gadget and passing-downs role. However, both Edwards-Helaire and Elijah Mitchell could steal a few touches away from Hunt and Smith. Edwards-Helaire has not appeared in a game yet this season. Across two games for the New Orleans Saints in 2024, he recorded 70 scrimmage yards on 16 touches. Edwards-Helaire should remain off fantasy radars heading into Week 9.

New York Jets running back Breece Hall was a huge factor during Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns. He rushed the ball 21 times for 83 yards on the ground, but his biggest play came through the air. Hall took a screen pass for a 42-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter to help get his team the victory. This is now back-to-back strong fantasy performances from Hall who was sluggish there for a few games. The Jets are going to need him now more than ever with Garrett Wilson (knee) exiting this game. It's unclear if Wilson will be ready to go in time for the quick turnaround with a Thursday night matchup against the New England Patriots.
