Who Should I Start? J.K. Dobbins or Kimani Vidal

Denver Broncos running back J.K. Dobbins (foot) will be out on Sunday against the divisional-rival Kansas City Chiefs in Week 11 with a significant foot injury and is believed to be out for the "foreseeable future," according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. Dobbins is still working through his options, but there has been no final determination, and he's still a candidate to land on Injured Reserve. The 26-year-old injured his foot in the Thursday night win over the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 10 and is now set to miss multiple weeks. If he's forced to IR, he'd be out for at least four games. It's a serious blow to Denver's backfield, as Dobbins currently leads the team with 772 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 153 attempts over his 10 games. Keep him stashed in all fantasy leagues for now, but if he goes on IR, there's a chance he may not contribute much, if at all, the rest of the regular season. RJ Harvey will operate as the Broncos' RB1 for the foreseeable future, making him a must-roster in all leagues.

Los Angeles Chargers running back Kimani Vidal had a big workload last week, with a 93% snap share and 25 carries for 95 yards and a touchdown. This week, however, he faces a challenging Jacksonville Jaguars defense that has become a significant pass-funnel, allowing the third-fewest rushing yards and only six rushing touchdowns all season. Jacksonville is good at preventing big plays, allowing zero rushes of 40 yards or more. With Hassan Haskins (hamstring) and Omarion Hampton (ankle) still on IR, Vidal's heavy usage as the lead back gives him a steady floor. Still, his production mainly depends on the Chargers building an early lead. Due to the Jaguars' tough run defense, Vidal is downgraded to a low-end RB2 this week, projected as RB20.
