Who Should I Start? Jaylen Warren or Zachary Evans

Monday, January 15, 11:47 PM

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren handled eight carries for 38 yards and two receptions for 16 yards in the team's wild-card loss to the Buffalo Bills. Although Warren was more efficient than backfield mate Najee Harris, neither player made much of an impact on Monday. Pittsburgh struggled early on in the contest and was forced to throw after surrendering 21 quick points. Despite ending the season with disappointment, the 25-year-old enjoyed a breakout campaign in which he totaled over 1,000 yards from scrimmage and ranked third amongst all NFL running backs in yards per carry. He should retain a prominent role in the Steelers' offense along with Harris next season.

Los Angeles Rams running back Zach Evans is a candidate to lead the backfield in touches with Kyren Williams (ankle) and Ronnie Rivers (knee) out in Week 7. The 6th-round rookie has played ahead of and gotten more reps than any other back on the roster this season, however, the Rams may go with a hot-hand approach. Royce Freeman and Darrell Henderson are both candidates to take touches away from Evans. The 22-year-old is most definitely worth a stash but should be avoided until it's clear how the backfield will look. Treat Evans as a low-end RB4/flex in the team's Week 7 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
