Who Should I Start? D'Andre Swift or Rashee Rice

Saturday, November 15, 12:14 PM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift is off the injury report and is set to play in Week 11 against the Minnesota Vikings. This marks the first time since Week 6 that Swift has no injury designation, as he has been playing through nagging hip and groin injuries throughout the season. Despite playing through injury, Swift has been a game-changer for the Bears this season. In eight games, he has 754 scrimmage yards and five touchdowns on 136 total attempts. However, Week 11 marks his first relatively tough opponent he's had since Week 2, as the Vikings have allowed the 13th fewest fantasy points to running backs this season. This run defense is no joke, as they've held Derrick Henry and Jahmyr Gibbs to under double-digit fantasy points in back-to-back weeks. Swift profiles as a risky RB2 this week, with his value dependent on whether he finds the endzone in Minnesota.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice will take on the Denver Broncos in Week 11. Rice returned from suspension in Week 7 and has been nothing short of spectacular for fantasy since. The 25-year-old stepped back into his WR1 role, earning 26 targets and scoring four touchdowns in three games heading into the team's Week 10 bye. With only a three-game sample size, Rice has the most points per game among wide receivers this season. Despite his incredible start, Rice will have to contend with Denver this week. The Broncos defense is the toughest matchup for wide receivers this season, allowing the fewest fantasy points per game to the position. Rice will need to link up with Patrick Mahomes often and in the red zone to manage a strong fantasy performance. Rice is ranked WR6 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, making him a must-start WR1 despite facing the toughest matchup for receivers this season.
