Who Should I Start? Jaylen Wright or Jaydon Blue

Friday, October 24, 7:59 PM

Miami Dolphins running back Jaylen Wright started the season sidelined by a knee injury, but he has been available since Week 4. However, Wright still doesn't have a target, a carry, or even an offensive snap. He was a healthy scratch in Week 5 and Week 6, but in Week 7, he was active. He was still not involved in the offense; however, still playing behind De'Von Achane and Ollie Gordon II. Wright showed flashes of upside last year as a rookie, and his name has been floated in trade rumors this season. However, it's hard to get a real idea of how good he can be when he's so uninvolved. If the Dolphins give him some work this week against the Falcons, he could at least boost his trade value. Since he hasn't done anything all year, Wright is the No. 73 RB in RotoBaller's rankings. He is off the fantasy radar for now, but it's worth monitoring to see if he gets any work this week.

Dallas Cowboys rookie running back Jaydon Blue and wide receiver Jonathan Mingo are both healthy scratches for the team's Monday night game against the Arizona Cardinals in Week 9. Head coach Brian Schottenheimer was very critical of Blue following the Week 8 loss to the Denver Broncos, in which Blue had a costly fumble. The 21-year-old will now be inactive this week in favor of Malik Davis as Dallas' RB2 behind starter Javonte Williams. It's a step back for Blue, who didn't make his NFL debut until Week 5 for the Cowboys. In his four games played, the fifth-rounder out of Texas has carried the ball 22 times for 65 yards (3.0 yards per carry) while adding one catch for five yards. While Blue probably won't be in the doghouse for the rest of the season, he's in street clothes on Monday night and has currently lost out on the RB2 role in Dallas.
