Who Should I Start? James Cook or TreVeyon Henderson

Saturday, November 8, 11:51 AM

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook has been removed from the injury report and will play Sunday against the Miami Dolphins, presumably without any limitations. This is great news for Cook and his fantasy managers, as a matchup against the Dolphins provides an enormous opportunity for the 26-year-old to rack up fantasy points. Miami has been miserable against the run this year, surrendering the third-most rushing yards and fifth-most fantasy points to opposing running backs in 2025. Cook is the overall RB7 in PPR leagues so far with 867 rushing yards, 100 receiving yards, and seven touchdowns. In his last outing against Miami, he accrued 118 scrimmage yards and one touchdown. Fantasy managers should have full confidence deploying Cook as a mid-to-high RB1 this week.

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson is on track to lead the backfield in Week 11 after Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) was ruled out for a third consecutive game. After totaling 150 yards and two touchdowns against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last week, Henderson will look to keep his momentum during a short week, facing off against the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football. New York ranks near the middle of the league in terms of fantasy points allowed to running backs, but a spread of New England -12.5 could lead to a heavy dose of touches for Henderson, as well as teammates Terrell Jennings (knee) and D'Ernest Johnson. The rookie still has some things to clean up -- he averaged just 1.96 YPC on non-scoring plays last week -- but if he can continue to play more than three-quarters of the snaps while carving out a role as a rusher and receiver, he'll be in line for a very strong fantasy outing in Week 11. He ranks as a solid RB2 with RB1 upside.
