Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or Cam Skattebo

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry is coming off of a RB1 level finish against the Cincinnati Bengals where there were plenty of points left on the table after receiving just 10 carries. Head coach John Harbaugh talked about getting Henry more carries, but this isn't the first time he's said it, even over the course of this season. Plus, in Week 14, Henry faces off against the Pittsburgh Steelers who are currently ranked as the eighth toughest defense against opposing backfields. They allow 19.37 fantasy points per game to running backs and have only given up five rushing touchdowns all season. Henry has had a better time finding the end zone at home which still gives him a bit of a value boost, but he's projected as the RB11 in half-PPR formats on the RotoBaller rankings.

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo (ankle) underwent season-ending surgery last week, but he is not expected to face a very complicated rehab process, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Although the rookie suffered a dislocated ankle, fractured fibula, and ruptured deltoid ligament in Week 8, he quickly underwent successful surgery and is on track to return to football action within six months. "Even at the very latest benchmark, he should be ready to roll for OTAs and minicamp," Rapoport wrote in an X post about Skattebo. As the Giants approach the back half of their season, they'll turn to Devin Singletary and Tyrone Tracy Jr. to lead their backfield. Redraft managers can drop Skattebo, but dynasty managers should hold onto him, as he'll likely be a high-end RB2 next season.
