Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or Jahmyr Gibbs

Saturday, November 15, 7:13 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has yet another tough matchup ahead of him in Week 11 after registering a low-end RB2 finish in Week 10 against the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran goes up against the Cleveland Browns for the second time this season after registering just two fantasy points in half-PPR leagues the first time these two met. Throughout the season, the Browns are the fourth-toughest defense against backfields and have only allowed three touchdowns on the ground all season. They give up just 16.79 fantasy points per game to the whole backfield. While Henry could always break off a big play, he's projected as a high-end RB2 this week.

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs dominated the Washington Commanders in Week 10, recording 172 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns on 18 touches. He'll now face a significantly tougher test in Week 11 when the Lions travel to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles. The Eagles' defense is a mid-pack unit in yards per carry allowed (4.4). However, they rank in the top ten in the NFL in per-game opponent scoring (21.3 points per game). One possible boost for Gibbs' fantasy value in Week 11 is his potential for receiving work. The Lions will be without tight end Sam LaPorta (back) against Philadelphia, which could put Gibbs in position for more targets. Even in a tough matchup, Gibbs profiles as a must-start fantasy running back in Week 11.
