Who Should I Start? Dare Ogunbowale or Sean Tucker

Friday, September 19, 9:15 PM

Houston Texans running back Dare Ogunbowale has played significant snaps in the first two weeks of the season, but the veteran could be in for a reduced workload as the team tries to find more dynamic playmakers to jumpstart the offense. He's expected to play a reduced role against the Jaguars in Week 3 as the Texans lean more on rookie Woody Marks instead of the veteran Obubowale. In Week 1, he played 27% of snaps, and in Week 2, he played 20% of snaps. After two carries and two catches in Week 1, he didn't have an offensive opportunity in Week 2. Marks made some big plays as well, showing the spark he brings to the offense. Ogunbowale is only the RB76 in the RotoBaller Week 3 rankings, so he's off the radar in all but the deepest of leagues this week.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Sean Tucker is coming off a fantastic performance against the Buffalo Bills. Last week, Tucker rushed 19 times for 106 yards and scored two touchdowns in the loss. He also hauled in two receptions for 34 yards and an additional score through the air. All signs are pointing to Tucker once again having a large role in the backfield during the Week 12 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Lead back Bucky Irving (shoulder, toe) remains out for at least one more week. Tucker seems to have the edge over Rachaad White after that 100-plus yard performance. The expectation is that Tucker sees enough snaps to warrant high-end RB3 value for this weekend.
