Who Should I Start? Emanuel Wilson or Dylan Sampson

Friday, November 28, 9:14 AM

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson was limited to four carries on Thursday and was reverted to his regular backup role with Josh Jacobs (knee) returning to the starting lineup after missing Week 12 with his injury. Wilson was expected to be a bit more involved given his production in Week 12, but at the end of the day, Jacobs dominated the carries, seeing 17 to Wilson's four. Meanwhile, neither were involved much in the passing game, with Jacobs hauling in just one reception to Wilson's zero. With Jacobs back in his starting role, Wilson is not providing much fantasy value to managers besides a handcuff to Jacobs. Fantasy managers with Jacobs on their team, it may be wise to roster him as a security blanket; however, if you are rostering Wilson without Jacobs, it may be time to say thank you for your Week 12 services and move on to help your team make a fantasy playoff run.

Cleveland Browns running back Dylan Sampson turned in one of his team's best plays in a Week 12 win over the Las Vegas Raiders when he hauled in a 66-yard touchdown pass from Shedeur Sanders in the fourth quarter. While he hasn't seen a consistent workload this season, Sampson has shown chops in the passing game, catching 23 passes for 195 yards and two touchdowns in 11 games. In Week 13, Sampson will look to stay hot at home against the San Francisco 49ers. The 49ers have been solid against the run this season, allowing just the 19th-most fantasy points per game to running backs. While not a safe fantasy play, Sampson sets up as an RB5 with some flex appeal for Week 13's matchup.
