Who Should I Start? George Holani or Trevor Etienne

Wednesday, August 27, 11:31 PM

Seattle Seahawks running back George Holani has made the team's roster and will open the season as the third option on the depth chart, according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. Holani turned heads this preseason by rushing for 110 yards and one touchdown on 12 attempts. He's also a candidate to return kicks during the regular season. Holani beat out Damien Martinez, a seventh-round rookie from the University of Miami. Kenneth Walker III's injury history could give Holani more fantasy intrigue, but he's still not worth rostering in most redraft leagues.

Carolina Panthers rookie running back Trevor Etienne is in line for an increased workload in Week 6. Over the past two weeks, Etienne has totaled 62 scrimmage yards on 12 touches, showing flashes of potential in limited opportunities. With Chuba Hubbard (calf) expected to miss his second straight game, both Rico Dowdle and Etienne should see an uptick in carries once again. Carolina draws a favorable matchup against the Dallas Cowboys, who have surrendered the sixth-most fantasy points to running backs this season, including big performances from Josh Jacobs and Breece Hall in consecutive weeks. While Dowdle is expected to handle the starting role, Etienne remains off the fantasy radar outside of deep dynasty formats as he continues to earn more snaps.
