Who Should I Start? Jaylen Warren or Tyjae Spears

Friday, November 7, 11:11 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is fresh off a two-touchdown performance and will look to stay hot against the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 10. While the Chargers rank middle-of-the-pack against fantasy running backs, they have allowed the sixth-most yards per carry and fifth-most rushing touchdowns to the position. Los Angeles has been much tougher through the air than on the ground, so Pittsburgh may lean on Warren and the running game to keep pace on the road. Kenneth Gainwell and Kaleb Johnson will mix in for a few touches, but Warren's role as the Steelers' RB1 remains secure. Fantasy managers can confidently start him as a top-15 play on Sunday night.

In five games since returning from an ankle injury that held him out to start the 2025 season, Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears has recorded 248 scrimmage yards and a touchdown on 43 touches. The 24-year-old has been a consistent feature in the Titans' passing game, earning at least four targets and three receptions in each of his last four contests. Spears and veteran back Tony Pollard have been splitting backfield work relatively evenly in Tennessee. However, Pollard's name has been floated on the trade block, and there's a chance the rebuilding Titans move him before Tuesday's trade deadline. Spears could move into must-start territory as a fantasy running back if Pollard is moved. Even if the Titans hold on to Pollard, Spears has flex appeal in the right matchups. In shallow leagues where Spears remains available, he's worth targeting on the waiver wire even as the Titans hit their Week 10 bye.
