Who Should I Start? J.K. Dobbins or Cam Skattebo

Friday, September 26, 10:31 PM

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins has led the way for the team through the first three weeks of the 2025 campaign. Many assumed RJ Harvey would have a more prominent role in the offense, although that hasn't happened, with the rookie receiving only two attempts in the Week 3 loss to the Chargers. Harvey will presumably see more involvement at some point moving forward. However, it appears Dobbins remains the favorite to handle most of the snaps out of the backfield, at least for now. The 26-year-old has 222 yards off 41 carries this season. Even better, he's found the end zone in each of Denver's first three games. All things considered, Dobbins should be classified as a must-start in all fantasy formats on Monday night versus the Cincinnati Bengals, a club that surrendered two rushing touchdowns to Jordan Mason in Week 3.

New York Giants rookie running back Cam Skattebo has emerged as the team's bell cow and enters a challenging Week 4 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers as a volume-based RB2. The Chargers' defense has been elite against running backs, allowing the fifth-fewest fantasy points to the position (14.57 FPPG) and boasting the NFL's best red zone defense with a 25% TD rate. Despite the tough matchup on paper, Skattebo has been a top-8 fantasy RB over the last two weeks, commanding a 52.7% timeshare and proving his versatility with eight receptions and two rushing touchdowns. While L.A. is stingy on touchdowns, they rank 24th in rushing yards allowed (92.3), meaning Skattebo's high-volume role should keep him productive.
