Who Should I Start? D'Ernest Johnson or Trevor Etienne

Saturday, August 23, 3:25 PM

Baltimore Ravens running back D'Ernest Johnson posted a solid stat-line in the 30-3 preseason victory over the Washington Commanders, carrying the ball 17 times for 45 yards and scoring one touchdown, adding three receptions for 18 yards. Johnson's significant workload came while Baltimore primarily utilized their third and fourth-stringers most of the game. Despite this notable preseason performance, Johnson is not currently featured on the Ravens' official depth chart and is actively competing with Rasheen Ali to be the team's fourth running back. Given his current status, this game is unlikely to have a significant impact on Johnson's fantasy value as he remains off the radar for nearly all redraft leagues.

Carolina Panthers rookie running back Trevor Etienne played only four snaps in Week 7's 13-6 win against the Jets. Etienne played 8, 14, and 11 offensive snaps in his last three games, totaling 14 carries for 72 yards and one reception for seven yards. With Chuba Hubbard returning from a calf injury on Sunday, the fourth-round rookie assumed the RB3 role and also contributed on special teams, including a 45-yard kick return and three punt returns for 35 yards. He's a solid stash in dynasty leagues but isn't rosterable in redraft formats.
