Who Should I Start? Corey Clement or Nyheim Hines

Saturday, November 4, 9:21 PM

Arizona Cardinals running back Corey Clement has been elevated to the active roster ahead of the Week 9 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. The Cardinals have decided to bring up the veteran back as a reinforcement with Emari Demercado (toe) ruled out for this game. The expectation is that Keaontay Ingram will get a majority of the snaps in the backfield. Possibly, Clement gets mixed in a little, but it shouldn't be enough to warrant streaming in any fantasy formats.

Free-agent running back Nyheim Hines (leg) is signing a one-year deal worth up to $3.5 million with the Cleveland Browns, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The 27-year-old missed the entire 2023 season with the Buffalo Bills after suffering a major leg injury during the offseason. Hines entered the league as a fourth-round pick in the 2018 NFL draft via the Indianapolis Colts, where he was utilized as a receiving back behind Jonathan Taylor late in his tenure. In 72 games for the Colts, he caught 235 passes for 1,725 yards and seven touchdowns. He was traded to the Buffalo Bills at the 2022 deadline but only logged 11 touches for 50 yards thereafter. Hines will need to get past the leg injury, but he's a dynamic kick returner and could be in the mix as a change-of-pace back in Cleveland's backfield when he's fully healthy.
