Who Should I Start? Frank Gore Jr. or Keilan Robinson

Monday, October 14, 6:10 PM

The Buffalo Bills elevated rookie running back Frank Gore Jr. from the practice squad to the 53-man active roster for Monday night's divisional showdown against the New York Jets. This could be a sign that James Cook (toe), who was listed as questionable to play in Week 6, may not be available to play on Monday night. But the Bills could also be electing for extra backfield depth behind Cook, Ty Johnson and rookie Ray Davis. Fantasy managers should know Cook's official status for Monday's primetime contest in another hour. The 22-year-old Gore hasn't played at all through the first five weeks of his rookie season in the NFL after going undrafted out of Southern Miss. At best, Gore could see some short-yardage work for Buffalo whenever he makes his NFL debut, but he can be ignored in all single-year fantasy formats for the time being.

The Jacksonville Jaguars released running back Keilan Robinson on Wednesday, according to NFL insider Jeremy Fowler. Robinson was a fifth-round pick in the 2024 NFL Draft out of Texas and played in six games during his rookie season. He did not log a touch on offense, but he returned two kickoffs for 34 total yards. With Tank Bigsby, Travis Etienne Jr., and rookies Bhayshul Tuten and LeQuint Allen on the roster, he became expendable to the new front offense. Robinson logged just 156 total touches from scrimmage in college and hasn't proven anything yet in his short NFL career. He's likely a safe drop candidate in dynasty formats, and it would be a surprise if he's on the fantasy football radar in 2025 if he's picked up by a new team.
