Who Should I Start? Devin Neal or Bhayshul Tuten

Wednesday, September 17, 11:30 AM

New Orleans Saints rookie running back Devin Neal did not record a touch in Week 2 and appears to be the clear RB3 in New Orleans behind Alvin Kamara and Kendre Miller. The Saints are averaging 114 rushing yards per game as a team through the first two weeks of the season, but it does not appear that Neal will be a regular contributor in the run game without an injury to one of the backs ahead of him on the depth chart. Neal still has some value as a stash play in dynasty leagues, but he should not be on the radar of redraft managers for the time being.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten (shoulder) was listed as a limited participant in the first practice of the week on Wednesday. Tuten was also limited during practice last week with a shoulder injury, but he ended up playing in the Week 3 win over the Houston Texans and went for 21 rushing yards and his first NFL rushing touchdown on six carries. He failed to catch his only target. The 23-year-old wasn't as efficient as he was in the Week 2 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals, but he was able to find the end zone for the second straight week as the change-of-pace back behind Travis Etienne Jr. Barring a setback with his shoulder, Tuten should be fine to suit up for a Week 4 meeting against a San Francisco 49ers defense that just lost Nick Bosa (knee) for the year. Consider Tuten an upside RB3/flex play this weekend.
