Who Should I Start? Jaylen Warren or Chase Brown

Saturday, November 15, 1:15 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren had his most productive outing of the season against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 7, and he'll look to replicate that success against them at home in Week 11. Cincinnati has been shredded by opposing backs all year, surrendering the most fantasy points per game, the second-most yards per carry, the fourth-most receiving yards, and the second-most total touchdowns to the position. In addition to the juicy matchup, conversations surrounding Warren's workload bolster his fantasy upside this week. Both head coach Mike Tomlin and quarterback Aaron Rodgers have publicly stated that they would like the 27-year-old to see more touches going forward. Even with Kenneth Gainwell and Kaleb Johnson mixing in, Warren should have more than enough opportunity to provide top-10 fantasy production as a clear RB1 on Sunday.

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown hasn't played as well as expected. He began the 2025 campaign by finding the end zone in Week 1 against the Browns. Unfortunately, the 25-year-old didn't score again until the narrow one-point loss to the New York Jets back in Week 8. It's safe to say he has a way to go before earning back the trust of fantasy managers, especially since he's struggled to get much going on the ground. However, Brown has at least made up for it by scoring two touchdowns against the Jets and totaling eight catches in the Week 9 meeting with the Chicago Bears. He's trending in the right direction and should see even more snaps with Samaje Perine (ankle) ruled out. As a result, Brown can continue to be viewed as a starting fantasy option in Week 11 versus the Pittsburgh Steelers.
