Who Should I Start? Derrick Henry or Tyler Huntley

Friday, December 26, 10:20 AM

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has faced some tough times this season in regard to ball security and questionable coaching decisions. While he registered his fourth fumble of the year last week against the New England Patriots, he still accrued 128 yards and two touchdowns on 18 carries. Tyler Huntley is likely to be under center in Week 17 against the Green Bay Packers, which means Henry should see some more carries. In Weeks 6 and 8, Henry received a combined 45 carries with Huntley as the starter. The Packers, however, are the eighth-toughest team in the league against the position over the last four weeks. They only allow 19.38 fantasy points per game to opposing backfields, but Henry was able to run all over the third-ranked Patriots defense, so he still projects as the RB11 in RotoBaller's rankings.

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley looks to be in line to start against the Green Bay Packers after Lamar Jackson (back) received a doubtful status on the injury report. The former Pro-Bowler took over for Jackson after he suffered a back contusion in their Week 16 loss to the New England Patriots. Huntley posted 65 yards while completing nine out of his 10 throws, and rushed for two yards on two carries. The Packers have a similarly stout defense, but have started to show some holes ever since Micah Parsons (knee) was injured. While they allow 25.04 fantasy points per game over the last two weeks to quarterbacks, Huntley and the Ravens are likely to lean a little more on the run game. That leaves him as the QB22 in RotoBaller's projections, right behind Philip Rivers.
