Who Should I Start? Jahmyr Gibbs or Tre' Harris

Monday, November 3, 1:06 PM

Detroit Lions running back Jahmyr Gibbs had one of his worst games as a pro in his team's 27-24 Week 9 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Gibbs was held to 28 scrimmage yards on 12 touches and did not score a touchdown. The 23-year-old has mostly been a fantasy weapon so far this season, recording 748 yards from scrimmage and seven touchdowns on 142 touches across eight games played. However, there are a couple of worrying signs for Gibbs. He's currently averaging 4.9 yards per carry and 5.3 yards per touch, both of which would be career lows if they were to sustain for the remainder of the season. Additionally, the Lions lost starting left guard Christian Mahogany (knee) to a significant knee injury in Week 9, which could be a major issue for the team's run blocking. Still, Gibbs remains a must-start fantasy running back heading into a Week 10 matchup against the Washington Commanders.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie wide receiver Tre' Harris scored his first career touchdown last week, but it came on only two targets and two catches for eight yards. His 40.7% route rate increased only because the Chargers rested starters in their dominant win against the Minnesota Vikings last Thursday night. Although the Tennessee Titans are weak on defense, the expected run-heavy game plan suggests another low-volume passing day, leaving few targets for the depth players. With rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden emerging, the target hierarchy is clear, and Harris remains low in the pecking order. He can be safely sat on the bench. He should only be considered in deep dynasty leagues or if multiple starters are injured.
