Who Should I Start? Jahmyr Gibbs or De'Von Achane

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs struggled to find running room in Sunday night's 16-9 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, handling 12 carries for 39 yards, but was dynamic as a receiver with a team-high five catches (eight targets) for 107 yards. Gibbs has now topped 140 yards or more from scrimmage in three of the past four games and was one of the few bright spots in a tough offensive showing from the Lions. The 23-year-old posted his highest receiving total of the season and his most receptions in a game since Week 3. That could be a featured part of Detroit's offense moving forward, with Sam LaPorta (back) placed on injured reserve earlier this week. Gibbs will again rank as one of the elite RBs in fantasy in Week 12 against the New York Giants.

Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane put together an excellent fantasy day in his team's overtime victory against the Washington Commanders by compiling 165 total yards on 26 touches. Though he didn't score, Achane caught all five targets for 45 yards and ended the day with 120 rushing yards from 21 carries. As Miami's best offensive weapon, Achane was involved early and often, and he performed capably against a struggling Washington defense. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, Ollie Gordon II scored a one-yard touchdown, the team's only one of the day. Still, Achane has shown he deserves the benefit of the doubt every week, even on a Dolphins team that has underperformed overall.
