Who Should I Start? Jaylen Warren or Ollie Gordon II

Saturday, November 29, 10:54 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren had a solid game last week and will look to build on that performance against the Buffalo Bills in Week 13. Buffalo has been solid against the pass but extremely vulnerable on the ground, surrendering the third-most rushing yards, the second-most yards per carry, and the third-most fantasy points to opposing running backs. Warren will continue to split work with Kenneth Gainwell, who has emerged as Pittsburgh's preferred receiving back. Still, Warren remains the clear leader on the ground. The 27-year-old has logged double-digit carries in every game he's played this season, while Gainwell has reached 10 carries just twice. Though the Steelers enter this matchup as underdogs, they are projected to keep it competitive at home, suggesting plenty of utilization for Warren throughout. Fantasy managers should treat Warren as a high-end RB2 with upside on Sunday.

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II will continue to be the team's primary backup as they come back from their bye week and host the Saints. Gordon had a touchdown in Week 11 with nine carries for 45 rushing yards and a touchdown against the Commanders in Madrid. He has three touchdowns on the year, totaling 164 rushing yards on 50 carries. He played a limited role for a few weeks while dealing with an ankle issue, but he seemed to be past that issue in Week 11 and should definitely be 100% after the bye week. He played 39% of snaps and should continue to get a few opportunities each week as a change-of-pace back. He is the No. 57 RB in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings, meaning that he is best left on the bench in most standard-sized formats in his role, even in this favorable matchup.
