Who Should I Start? Gus Edwards or Ray Davis

Los Angeles Chargers running back Gus Edwards (ankle) has been placed on the injured reserve ahead of their Week 6 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Edwards hasn't practiced all week and it doesn't sound like his injury is going to get better anytime soon. That being said, Edwards will head to the IR and miss the next four games. Edwards has taken a backseat to J.K. Dobbins over the last two weeks. The first two weeks Edwards saw 29 carries, but only had nine rushing attempts over the last two games. Dobbins has run away with the lead back gig, which means Edwards' absence won't make a huge impact. Hassan Haskins and Kimani Vidal could see a few touches, but Dobbins is going to be the primary running back going forward.

Buffalo Bills running back Ray Davis remains a high-upside running back bench stash as the team approaches the halfway mark of their season. The rookie flashed his potential in his feature role in Week 6 but was relegated to the backup role with James Cook healthy again. Under offensive coordinator Joe Brady, the Bills lean on Cook and the running game to win games. Should anything happen to Cook, Davis is a direct replacement. For now, he can't be started in fantasy football lineups and ranks as a desperation RB4 against Seattle.
