Who Should I Start? DJ Giddens or Kyle Monangai

Sunday, November 9, 8:41 AM

Indianapolis Colts running back DJ Giddens is a healthy scratch ahead of the Week 10 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. Giddens won't be active for the third straight game as he hasn't played since Week 7. The Colts will ride with Tyler Goodson and Ameer Abdullah as the backups to Jonathan Taylor. So far this season, Giddens has rushed the ball 18 times for 66 yards with zero touchdowns. He could be worth stashing in dynasty leagues, but doesn't need to be rostered outside of that.

Chicago Bears running back Kyle Monangai is still getting plenty of work in the backfield, and he's a strong grab if he's on the waiver wire as the Bears continue to push for the second seed in the NFC. Monangai had eight carries and three catches against the 49ers, totaling 38 rushing yards and nine receiving yards. D'Andre Swift had nine carries and two catches but was more productive with two rushing touchdowns. Monangai could get a little more work if the Bears look to get Swift some rest before the playoffs, and the matchup against the Lions should be a solid one, since Detroit's defense has struggled down the stretch, giving up seven running back touchdowns in the last three weeks.
