Who Should I Start? J.K. Dobbins or Bijan Robinson

Wednesday, November 26, 7:13 PM

Denver Broncos head coach Sean Payton isn't ruling out a potential return from running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) later in the year, according to Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post. Dobbins was previously ruled out for the rest of the season due to a foot injury, but if the Broncos make a deep postseason run, Dobbins might be able to return. For fantasy football purposes, managers in single-year leagues can dump Dobbins to the waiver wire if they haven't already done so, since he won't be able to help them before the end of the year. Denver will move forward with rookie second-rounder RJ Harvey as their primary backfield option with Dobbins out, but Jaleel McLaughlin and Tyler Badie will also be involved in change-of-pace roles. Harvey will have RB2 upside the rest of the way, while McLaughlin and Badie are simply bench stashes in deeper fantasy leagues.

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.
