Who Should I Start? Darrynton Evans or Jaret Patterson

Thursday, November 23, 1:25 PM

Miami Dolphins running back Darrynton Evans was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster, the team announced. Evans spent the first half of this season with the Bears, totaling a career-high 105 rushing yards, 49 receiving yards, and one touchdown. His promotion to Miami's active roster suggests that there's a real chance De'Von Achane (knee) or Raheem Mostert (ankle, knee) will not play on Friday. Fantasy managers invested in this backfield should check back for updates on the Dolphins' final injury report Thursday afternoon.

The Washington Commanders signed running back Jaret Patterson to the practice squad on Tuesday. Patterson signed with Washington after being undrafted in 2021 and rushed 85 times for 344 yards and two touchdowns in 20 games. He was released during final roster cuts ahead of the 2023 season and spent time on the Los Angeles Chargers practice squad until his release on December 20. Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring), Jonathan Williams (concussion), and Chris Rodriguez Jr. (foot) are all banged up, so Patterson adds much-needed depth to the Commanders' RB room.
