Who Should I Start? Jaleel McLaughlin or Isaiah Davis

Sunday, September 14, 2:40 PM

Denver Broncos running back Jaleel McLaughlin is a healthy scratch for his team's Week 2 game against the Indianapolis Colts. McLaughlin was also inactive in Week 1, so this decision from the team does not necessarily come as a surprise. Without McLaughlin, Denver will roll with the running back trio of J.K. Dobbins, RJ Harvey, and Tyler Badie.

Despite ascending in the team's backfield pecking order, New York Jets running back Isaiah Davis has not seen his opportunity translate to fantasy success and remains exclusively in a change-of-pace role for this Sunday's game with the visiting Carolina Panthers. In two appearances as the backup to running mate Breece Hall, the 23-year-old has accrued seven yards on three carries and four receptions for 27 yards (five targets). In contrast, Hall has racked up 40 touches over that time frame. If the veteran were ever to be traded, Davis projects to step in as the lead back and would undoubtedly be interesting for fantasy. In the meantime, he doesn't command enough work to garner standalone value. He ranks as RotoBaller's PPR RB47 ahead of this weekend's slate of action.
