Who Should I Start? Ezekiel Elliott or Bijan Robinson

Monday, January 6, 9:59 PM

The Los Angeles Chargers have signed running back Ezekiel Elliott on Monday. The former first-round pick will get a chance to compete for a Super Bowl this season. The Chargers are lacking depth at the running back spot, so the addition of Elliott does make sense. The three-time Pro Bowl back might play a minimal role during Saturday's Wild-Card game against the Houston Texans. This season, Elliott rushed for 226 yards on 74 carries with three touchdowns in 15 games with the Dallas Cowboys. The 29-year-old brings knowledge and leadership, but he hasn't rushed for over 1,000 yards since 2021. This is a depth move that gives the 29-year-old a chance to win a Super Bowl.

Atlanta Falcons running back Bijan Robinson continues to produce despite his team losing six of the last seven games, as he's currently the fourth-ranked running back in PPR formats after adding five receptions for 51 yards to his 142-yard rushing total in last week's 27-24 loss to the Jets. The 23-year-old's seven targets were an encouraging development with Kirk Cousins under center after totaling just five in Cousins' previous two starts. Week 14 brings a home matchup with the Seahawks, a defense that has yielded the fourth-fewest fantasy points to opposing running backs, but that has also allowed the second-most receptions per game (5.7) and fourth-most receiving yards per game (39.7) to opposing backs. Whether the Falcons are playing from behind or with a lead, Robinson should be heavily involved regardless and is once again a rock-solid RB1 for Sunday's contest.
