Who Should I Start? De'Von Achane or Jayden Higgins

Friday, December 5, 6:54 PM

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane has been one of the top running backs in the NFL over the last few weeks, and he's a great play this week against the Jets. Achane has at least 120 rushing yards to power the Dolphins to three straight wins in his last three games against the Bills, Commanders, and Saints. He finished with 134 rushing yards and a touchdown last week against the Saints, and is averaging 86.2 rushing yards and 30.8 receiving yards per game on the season with 10 total touchdowns. The Jets have been the sixth-best matchup for running backs this season, and last week, the Falcons running backs totaled 162 rushing yards, 86 receiving yards, and two touchdowns against New York. In such a great matchup with plenty of momentum and a large expected workload, Achane is the No. 1 RB in the entire NFL in RotoBaller's Week 14 rankings.

Houston Texans rookie wide receiver Jayden Higgins has quietly built a fantasy starting role in recent weeks. In the past four games, Higgins has hauled in 20 of 28 targets for 200 yards and two touchdowns, including his career high in yardage in Week 13 with C.J. Stroud back under center. While star receiver Nico Collins will continue to handle the bulk of the targets in Houston, Higgins has been a sturdy option as well. The Texans face the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 14, who just allowed big games to George Pickens and CeeDee Lamb in Week 13. Higgins is a low-end starting option against the defending AFC champions.
