Who Should I Start? Javonte Williams or Jaydon Blue

Sunday, September 14, 8:35 PM

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams carried the ball 18 times for 97 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's Week 2 contest against the New York Giants. He also converted seven targets into six receptions for 33 yards through the air. The veteran running back not only earned significant volume in the overtime victory, but he also showed that he can stay fresh and productive for an entire game. In fact, he has now strung together two impressive games in a row, scoring at least 20 fantasy points (PPR) in each of his contests so far. He's a very solid RB2 option heading into a Week 3 clash with the Chicago Bears, who were just destroyed by the Detroit Lions.

Dallas Cowboys running back Jaydon Blue (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's Week 2 contest against the New York Giants. The fifth-round rookie has now been a healthy scratch for each of the Cowboys' first two games of the season. In his absence, Miles Sanders will serve as the backup running back behind Javonte Williams. Sanders and Williams are the Cowboys' only two active running backs, but fullback Hunter Luepke should also see some blocking work in the backfield. Fantasy managers in deeper leagues should be patient with Blue and hold onto him, as it's likely only a matter of time before he's active as the No. 3 running back or leapfrogs Miles Sanders for the backup job.
