Who Should I Start? Javonte Williams or Kenneth Walker III

Saturday, November 15, 4:50 PM

Dallas Cowboys running back Javonte Williams has consistently dominated the work out of the Cowboys' backfield all year. Williams has been one of the most reliable players in the Dallas offense this season and is currently on pace to finish as a top-12 fantasy running back. He was held in check in his last game against the Cardinals in Week 9, but he remains one of the most consistent options at the position. This week, Williams and the Cowboys face the Las Vegas Raiders, a defense that has been fairly mediocre against the run. The Raiders are allowing around 106 rushing yards per game and have given up 12 rushing touchdowns on the year. This sets up a strong opportunity for Williams and the Dallas offense to get back on track against a lackluster Raiders unit. RotoBaller currently has Williams ranked as the RB5 for Week 11.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III is not a fantasy starter in Week 11 against the Los Angeles Rams. Walker is running solidly for Seattle, but he has not been able to break off a big play or find the end zone consistently in 2025. Additionally, Seattle is relying on running back Zach Charbonnet at the goal line. Even when Seattle is in scoring position, Walker often does not have a chance to punch it in. What is more, the Rams are No. 2 against opposing running backs in fantasy. They are allowing just 3.74 yards per carry to opposing running backs. To make matters worse, the Rams are No. 15 in receiving yards allowed to opposing running backs, limiting what little receiving upside Walker has. Walker has not scored double-digit fantasy points since Week 4. He has not scored a touchdown since Week 3. He is not receiving enough volume to overcome the lack of touchdowns, either. Walker should be benched in Week 11, and he is approaching drop candidate status.
