Who Should I Start? Jahmyr Gibbs or Bhayshul Tuten

Friday, November 14, 10:44 PM

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs dominated the Washington Commanders in Week 10, recording 172 scrimmage yards and three touchdowns on 18 touches. He'll now face a significantly tougher test in Week 11 when the Lions travel to Philadelphia to take on the Eagles. The Eagles' defense is a mid-pack unit in yards per carry allowed (4.4). However, they rank in the top ten in the NFL in per-game opponent scoring (21.3 points per game). One possible boost for Gibbs' fantasy value in Week 11 is his potential for receiving work. The Lions will be without tight end Sam LaPorta (back) against Philadelphia, which could put Gibbs in position for more targets. Even in a tough matchup, Gibbs profiles as a must-start fantasy running back in Week 11.

Jacksonville Jaguars rookie running back Bhayshul Tuten had a season-high nine carries for 29 yards and scored his third touchdown of the year in the Week 9 overtime win over the Las Vegas Raiders. However, Tuten was unable to build on that performance in the Week 10 loss to the Houston Texans, carrying the ball just four times for five yards while catching one of his two targets for five additional yards. The 23-year-old played a season-high 27% of the offensive snaps, but fellow rookie LeQuint Allen Jr. saw a season-high 32% of the snaps as well. Travis Etienne Jr. remains the Jags' clear top back in Jacksonville, even though Tuten has teased fantasy managers in his rookie season with explosiveness and power out of the backfield. Tuten has fantasy value as a handcuff to Etienne, but he'll continue to be hard to trust as a touchdown-dependent RB4 heading into a Week 11 contest against the Los Angeles Chargers.
