Who Should I Start? Jerome Ford or Cameron Ward

Sunday, November 30, 11:56 AM

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford (hamstring), who was listed as questionable to play in Week 13, is officially active for Sunday's game against the visiting San Francisco 49ers. Ford will suit up this weekend, but fantasy managers are in some serious trouble if they are forced to play the 26-year-old in starting lineups. He was out-snapped by rookie Dylan Sampson in last week's win over the Las Vegas Raiders in the No. 2 role behind rookie Quinshon Judkins, carrying the ball just once for a loss of three yards. Ford has seen exactly one rushing attempt in each of the last three games, and he hasn't had more than two carries in a game since Oct. 5 against the Minnesota Vikings. With both Judkins and Sampson healthy, Ford is unlikely to see much work out of Cleveland's backfield against San Fran in inclement weather conditions.

Tennessee Titans rookie quarterback Cameron Ward struggled in Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, completing 24 of 38 passes for 141 yards with one carry for seven yards. The No. 1 overall pick also took three sacks for a loss of 20 yards as the Titans' offense struggled to move the ball all game. After having arguably his best game of the season last week against an elite Seattle Seahawks defense with 292 total yards and two touchdowns, Ward's 3.7 yards per attempt against the Jaguars was his lowest in a game this season. The Titans' offensive situation has been abysmal in 2025, with a lackluster skill position group and an inconsistent offensive line. Still, Ward has shown plenty of flashes and positive elements to build on. However, it's tough to trust him (even in superflex leagues) in a brutal Week 14 road matchup against the Cleveland Browns.
