Who Should I Start? Craig Reynolds or Zack Moss

Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds rushed 14 times for 74 yards and caught his only targets for 12 yards in the Week 8 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Reynolds has found extra work in the absence of David Montgomery (ribs), but that could be coming to an end after the team's Week 9 bye. Assuming Montgomery can return in Week 10 against the Los Angeles Chargers, Reynolds will be safe to drop to the waiver wire moving forward. In super deep leagues, Reynolds can continue to be stashed.

According to NFL Media's Tom Pelissero, the Bengals and free-agent running back Zack Moss agreed to a two-year, $8 million deal. Cincinnati released Joe Mixon on Monday night, so it didn't take the team long to fill the void in the backfield. Moss is coming off his best year since being drafted in 2020, showcasing his talents while filling in for the oft-injured Jonathan Taylor. In 14 regular season appearances, he finished with 794 yards off 183 touches to the tune of 4.3 yards per carry. The 26-year-old also caught 27 passes for 192 yards while totaling seven touchdowns (five rushing, two receiving). It's reasonable to assume Moss will get the bulk of the work in Cincinnati. But the Bengals have a few up-and-coming options, notably Chase Brown, who could compete for routine snaps heading into the 2024-25 campaign. That said, Moss should benefit from playing alongside Joe Burrow (wrist), Ja'Marr Chase, and potentially Tee Higgins, assuming he is the No.1 option on the depth chart by the end of training camp.
