Who Should I Start? Gus Edwards or Darrell Henderson

Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards carried the ball six times in a Week 13 win over the Atlanta Falcons. He gained 32 yards on the ground, with a long of 12 yards. In the passing game, he was targeted once, making a one-yard catch on the play. As expected, Edwards took the starting role in the backfield with J.K. Dobbins (knee) on IR, but the touches just weren't there, as the Bolts ran the ball only 17 times total, split between five different players. Edwards and the whole Chargers offense will likely need to do a lot more next week when they take on the division-leading Kansas City Chiefs.

The Los Angeles Rams have released running back Darrell Henderson Jr. from the practice squad. Henderson was drafted by the organization in 2019 and spent four seasons with Los Angeles before being waived in the middle of the 2022 season. He rejoined the team after injuries to Kyren Williams (ankle) and Ronnie Rivers (knee) this year, rushing 46 times for 112 yards and two touchdowns in four games. He has spent the last month on the practice squad, but his time with the organization is coming to an end once again. Rivers and Royce Freeman remain the backups to Williams.
