Who Should I Start? Jerome Ford or Tyjae Spears

Friday, November 14, 4:43 PM

Cleveland Browns running back Jerome Ford has struggled to carve out a role on his team's offense of late as he's handled just two carries and caught three passes over his past three games. Ford will look for a larger workload at home against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 11. The Ravens have struggled against opposing running backs this season, allowing the seventh-most fantasy points per game to the position through nine games. That being said, Ford is unlikely to see enough work to take advantage of the favorable matchup as rookie Quinshon Judkins has dominated the backfield work for the team this season. Ford is not a fantasy option heading into Week 11.

Tennessee Titans running back Tyjae Spears had four carries for three yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 11. Spears also had five catches for 31 yards on five targets. The 24-year-old was able to claw out 8.4 fantasy points, making it the fifth straight game with over seven fantasy points. Sunday also marked the third time this season Spears out-snapped backfield mate Tony Pollard in a game. Spears continues to live off his receiving production to stay flex-worthy for fantasy managers in PPR leagues. Nearly all of his fantasy points were earned through the air, making it the fourth time in five games this season he's done that. Spears will remain a flex option in PPR leagues despite a difficult matchup against a top-ranked Seattle Seahawks defense in Week 12.
