Who Should I Start? D'Andre Swift or Jaylen Waddle

Thursday, November 21, 4:34 PM

Chicago Bears running back D'Andre Swift (groin) was upgraded to a limited participant during Thursday's practice after sitting out on Wednesday. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor his status during Friday's practice session, but this is a positive sign for his availability heading into the weekend. Last weekend, Swift enjoyed a nice bounce-back, scoring 16.4 PPR points after failing to hit double-digits during Week 10. Despite the offensive struggles the Bears have had this season, Swift has been a reliable option out of the backfield, averaging 18.3 PPR points during Weeks 4 through 11. If Swift can suit up this weekend, fantasy managers should view him as an RB2 despite the tough matchup against the Minnesota Vikings who have allowed the second-fewest PPR points to opposing RBs.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle is tough to trust in Week 11 despite a decent matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. Other than Week 1, the only performance in which he eclipsed 46 receiving yards was last week against the Los Angeles Rams, when he had 57. He has only one touchdown on the year and hasn't received more than six targets in a game since Week 5. Overall, he has been one of the biggest disappointments of the 2024 season. The Raiders have allowed the seventh least receiving yards in 2024, but their star cornerback Nate Hobbs (ankle) will not be in the lineup. There isn't any justification to have him in your lineup; avoid him at all costs. He ranks as RotoBaller's WR33 in Week 11.
