Who Should I Start? David Montgomery or Quinshon Judkins

Monday, November 10, 8:29 PM

Detroit Lions running back David Montgomery recorded 15 carries for 71 yards and punched in a successful two-point conversion try in his team's 44-22 Week 10 win over the Washington Commanders. The 28-year-old has now rushed for 466 yards and five touchdowns on 104 attempts across nine games so far this season. With 14 catches for 106 yards and zero receiving touchdowns, Montgomery has seen minimal usage in the Lions' passing game. He also has a limited ceiling in terms of total touches as long as fellow Detroit running back Jahmyr Gibbs remains healthy. As a result, Montgomery is almost entirely dependent on touchdown scoring for fantasy production, even when he has an efficient rushing day like he did in Week 10. Montgomery may be tough for fantasy managers to trust in a tough Week 11 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Cleveland Browns running back Quinshon Judkins has struggled a bit with his efficiency of late as he's gained just 94 yards on 31 carries over his past two games, good for just 3.0 yards per carry over that span. He has also been held out of the end zone over that span after scoring three times against the Miami Dolphins back in Week 7. Judkins will look to get back on track in a Week 11 home matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Baltimore has been a plus matchup for running backs this season, allowing the seventh-most fantasy points per game to the position through nine games. Judkins has been dominating the backfield work for the Browns this season and fantasy managers can expect more of the same in Week 11, making Judkins a high-end RB2 heading into Sunday's matchup.
