Who Should I Start? Jamaal Williams or Antonio Gibson

Sunday, December 1, 3:16 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Jamaal Williams (groin) is officially active for Week 13 against the Los Angeles Rams. He had been listed as questionable but was expected to play after logging a full practice on Friday. The 29-year-old has just 124 rushing yards, 21 receiving yards, and one touchdown this season. He's listed as the Saints' No. 2 running back but could actually be third in the pecking order behind both Alvin Kamara and Taysom Hill. Williams should be left on fantasy waivers in most leagues.

New England Patriots running back Antonio Gibson doesn't receive enough volume to make him a household name in fantasy football, but his efficiency does put him on the radar in deeper leagues. The 26-year-old is averaging 6.8 yards per carry on 14 rushing attempts over the last two weeks, adding a touchdown along the way. He also caught two passes for 15 yards in last Sunday's loss to the Arizona Cardinals. The bad news for Gibson is that he faces the Buffalo Bills this week. Buffalo has been stingy against running backs on the ground, and while they're softer against pass-catching running backs, we expect Rhamondre Stevenson to command more targets than Gibson. The good news is that Gibson's efficiency has earned him additional opportunities lately, good enough to tally 20.6 fantasy points (PPR) over his last two contests. The Memphis product ranks as a mid-to-high RB4 ahead of Sunday's battle in Buffalo.
