Who Should I Start? Joe Mixon or Kyren Williams

Saturday, December 21, 4:15 PM

Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon compiled 71 total yards with no touchdowns in a 27-19 defeat at Kansas City on Saturday. The first-year Texan had a decent day on the ground against a strong Chiefs run defense, compiling 57 yards on 14 carries, but wasn't involved much as a receiver, drawing just two targets for one catch and 14 yards. The veteran has now gone back-to-back weeks without a score after compiling 11 touchdowns in the prior eight games. Mixon and the Texans will be back in action in short order, taking on the Baltimore Ravens on Christmas Day.

Los Angeles Rams running back Kyren Williams has had a quality season. He's already gone for over 1,000 yards on the ground while also combining for 14 touchdowns. Although the 24-year-old has averaged only 4.0 yards per carry, fantasy managers have been pleased with his production. With Los Angeles looking to make the playoffs, Williams and company will meet the Jets in Week 16. New York has allowed 23.2 points per contest this season, which isn't the most efficient mark in the National Football League. However, the Jets have surrendered only nine rushing touchdowns during the 2024-25 campaign, which isn't good news for Williams, who has relied heavily on his ability to find the end zone for most of his fantasy production. Still, the 24-year-old is one of the best backs in the league, so he remains a must-start in Week 16.
