Who Should I Start? Damien Williams or Raheem Mostert

Friday, November 10, 9:18 AM

Arizona Cardinals running back Damien Williams (foot) has been released by the organization with an injury settlement. This doesn't come as a surprise with James Conner (knee) expected to make his return this week. That means, Williams short lived time with the Cardinals is coming to an end. This season, Williams has totaled 43 yards on 11 carries and was held without a score. It's uncertain if the 31-year-old will get a chance elsewhere, but he's not expected to have fantasy value even he signs with another team.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Raheem Mostert (ankle, knee) is inactive for his team's Week 17 matchup against the New York Giants due to ankle and knee injuries. The 33-year-old has recorded 174 scrimmage yards on 34 touches across 12 games so far this season in a backup role behind Raiders RB1 Ashton Jeanty. With Mostert sidelined, Jeanty could see more of a true three-down role in Week 17 against New York. Raiders reserve running backs Dylan Laube and Zamir White could see an uptick in playing time as well. The Giants have been one of the NFL's worst defenses against the run this season, so Jeanty could be in line for a big day if he dominates backfield touches in Week 17.
