Who Should I Start? Deuce Vaughn or Julius Chestnut

Saturday, August 24, 7:46 PM

Dallas Cowboys running back Deuce Vaughn ran the ball nine times in the Cowboys preseason finale, gaining 53 yards. He was targeted twice in the passing game but was unable to come up with either catch. Vaughn ended up with the most carries among Cowboys running backs, although quarterback Trey Lance led the team with 11. Vaughn is buried on the depth chart and likely ticketed for a special teams role, but he's shown some rushing ability in case injuries strike the top Cowboys runners.

Tennessee Titans running back Julius Chestnut rushed five times for nine yards during Saturday's preseason game against the San Francisco 49ers. However, the bulk of his production came in the passing game where he hauled in two of three targets for a total of 37 yards through the air. His best play was a 36-yard pick-up on a short pass from Mason Rudolph in the second quarter. Chestnut has just 12 touches in nine games over the last two years, potentially putting him on the roster bubble ahead of what would be his age-23 season. Regardless of whether he makes the team, Chestnut should be avoided in all fantasy leagues.
