Who Should I Start? Daniel Jones or J.K. Dobbins

Thursday, November 20, 4:47 PM

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Daniel Jones (calf) was added to the team's Thursday injury report and listed as a limited practice participant due to a calf issue. While the severity of the injury is unclear, it's never a great sign for a player to be added to the injury report in the middle of the week, and it could be an indication that Jones suffered the ailment during practice. Across 10 games this season, the 28-year-old has completed 69.9% of his pass attempts for 2,659 yards, 15 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. Jones has also been a threat with his legs, rushing for 143 yards and five scores on 40 attempts. If he's unable to play in Week 12, rookie quarterback Riley Leonard would be in line to make the start on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs. Should Jones be active, he profiles as a borderline fantasy QB1 against Kansas City, although a calf injury could impact his effectiveness as a runner.

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) has a "significant" foot injury that will require season-ending surgery, according to Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Dobbins suffered the injury in Week 10 and had already been ruled out for Denver's Week 11 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, but he will now be placed on Injured Reserve. It's an unfortunate development for the oft-injured 26-year-old, who was having a solid season in his first year in Denver. Through 10 games, Dobbins had recorded 772 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 153 carries. With Dobbins sidelined, Broncos rookie running back RJ Harvey profiles as the team's RB1 for Week 11 and beyond. Fellow backs Tyler Badie and Jaleel McLaughlin could also factor in Denver, but neither profiles as a true threat to surpass Harvey.
