Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or Christian McCaffrey

Sunday, November 17, 5:14 PM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry posted one of his worst weeks of the season in the loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. The good news is that Henry did find the end zone while accumulating 65 yards on 13 carries. He also registered his third fumble of the season, however, which brought his total to just barely hitting double-digits. Since the offense was kept in check the entire game, the Ravens also had to abandon the run late in the game. Henry's next opportunity to break off some bigger runs will be against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 12.

San Francisco 49ers running back Christian McCaffrey (Rest/Achilles) was held out of Wednesday's practice, according to Matt Barrows of The Athletic. McCaffrey has received a heavy workload in both of his games this season and is likely still being eased into a full practice schedule, given the lengthy time he missed earlier in the season. During the past two weeks, McCaffrey tallied at least 20+ touches in each game and saw a season-high 19 carries this past weekend. Fantasy managers should monitor his status throughout the week in case, but he should be expected to return to practice in some capacity on Thursday. The 28-year-old should be viewed as a high-end RB1 for the remainder of the season, given his integral role on one of the best offensive units in the sport.
