Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or A.J. Brown

Saturday, November 8, 9:41 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has gotten back on track over the last few games, and comes into Week 10 as the overall RB15 in half-PPR leagues. Across those last three games, Henry is averaging 104.0 yards and 0.7 touchdowns on 21.3 carries per game. The Minnesota Vikings, however, have been quite stout against the run for most of the season. They're ranked the 11th toughest defense against opposing backfields and limited the dynamic Detroit Lions' run game to just a total of 16 fantasy points last week. With that being said, Henry is projected as a low-end RB1 because Lamar Jackson's gravity can still account for a lot of openings on the ground.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown had another frustrating performance against the Packers, with his three targets being the least amount of looks he's gotten in a game since Week 1. The only grace Brown can be granted is that this was his first playing time since Week 7's meeting with the Vikings, so maybe his lower snap count of 77.8% and lack of production can be partially chalked up to injury recovery. Nevertheless, he has not been the stud fantasy player many expected him to be this season. The Green Bay game marked the fourth time in eight games that Brown has finished with less than 30 receiving yards this year. His upcoming contest is against the Lions, who allow the 12th-most fantasy points to WRs this season. He has proven that he still has boom potential, but his bust performances have made him a frightening lineup option. Consider him a low-end WR2 for a primetime face-off on Sunday night.
