Who Should I Start? David Montgomery or RJ Harvey

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.

Denver Broncos rookie second-round running back RJ Harvey is coming off an underwhelming performance in the Week 10 win over the Las Vegas Raiders, but his fantasy stock may be reaching a high point going into a big Week 11 divisional clash against the Kansas City Chiefs. Lead back J.K. Dobbins suffered a foot injury last Thursday night and may be forced to Injured Reserve, which would keep him out at least four games. In three games before Thursday's lackluster offensive performance by the Broncos, Harvey had 13 carries for 51 yards and two touchdowns while adding seven receptions for 58 yards and three touchdowns through the air. With it looking likely that Dobbins will miss time regardless, Harvey is on the verge of lead-back duties for the Broncos. If he's available on your league's waiver wire, scoop him up immediately.
