Who Should I Start? Demetric Felton or Montrell Johnson Jr.

Indianapolis Colts running back Demetric Felton ran the ball four times for 44 yards and a touchdown in the team's win against the Bengals. Felton also caught both of his targets for an additional eight yards through the air. Felton struggled with his first three carries, netting just four yards, eventually taking his final carry 40 yards for a touchdown to help seal the win for Indy. Felton didn't see action until the fourth quarter, playing behind Jonathan Taylor, Tyler Goodson, and Evan Hull, indicating he might be on the outside looking in for a spot in the rotation this season. That being said, with the injury to Trey Sermon (hamstring), the RB2 role is up for grabs and Felton made his case for it with his performance.

Philadelphia Eagles running back Montrell Johnson Jr. had six carries for 20 yards in a 22-13 loss to the Browns on Thursday. The Eagles didn't run the ball much in general against Cleveland, with only 19 attempts across the whole team. Johnson tied with fellow back Keilan Robinson for most carries for Philadelphia, but managed to outrun him by 11 yards. The entire Philly offense was in shambles in Week 2 of the preseason, with seven drives going for less than five yards. Johnson is listed as the fourth RB on the Eagles depth chart, and the undrafted rookie will struggle to see touches behind more experienced players such as Saquon Barkley and AJ Dillon.
