Who Should I Start? Jaylen Waddle or Rhamondre Stevenson

Saturday, November 23, 9:44 AM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has had nothing short of a disappointing season for fantasy football. Waddle will look to bounce back in Sunday's matchup against the New England Patriots. Miami has asked him to do more in the run-blocking game, and big plays have been hard to come by this year with all the two high safety looks they've been getting. The opportunities have also been limited, with an emphasis on getting the run game going early. He hasn't had over four receptions in a game since Week 1. Week 12 presents a matchup with a Patriots defense that ranks 24th in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers per game. While this might sound like great news, trusting Waddle enough to put him in your lineup is tough. Start him at your own risk, but don't be surprised if he has another letdown performance as he comes in as WR33 in RotoBallers Week 12 rankings.

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson has posted mixed results this season, ranking inside among the top 10 fantasy running backs in half of his games but also turning in three performances outside the top 40. Stevenson has struggled with efficiency this year, tallying a career-low 3.8 yards per carry. On the other hand, he has developed a nose for the end zone, posting a career-high seven touchdowns through just 10 contests. In addition to his touchdown tally so far, Stevenson's previous matchup against Miami resulted in an overall RB5 finish; he rushed for 89 yards, caught four passes, and scored a touchdown in his last time facing the Dolphins. Miami has been strong against the pass, but they're softer against the run, surrendering the 10th-most fantasy points and fifth-most total touchdowns to opposing running backs. The 26-year-old has a good chance to find the end zone, and he boasts legitimate top-12 upside once again.
