Who Should I Start? Joe Mixon or Malik Nabers

Saturday, January 11, 7:57 PM

Houston Texans running back Joe Mixon overcame a rare fumble by helping his team secure victory with a 100-yard rushing effort and a game-clinching touchdown in the Texans' 32-12 win against the Los Angeles Chargers in a Wild Card playoff game. In total, the first-year Texan finished with 106 rushing yards on 25 carries and caught one of two targets for 13 yards. The veteran back's best work came after fumbling earlier in the game, breaking a streak of more than 1,000 touches without losing a fumble. Mixon rushed for 58 yards, including a 17-yard touchdown that iced the game, on Houston's final scoring drive. He and the Texans will advance to play a to-be-determined opponent in the Divisional Round.

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers had five catches for 64 yards in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. He also found the end zone, bringing in a 45-yard toss from Drew Lock in the fourth quarter. The Giants are done until September. However, fantasy managers were likely satisfied with Nabers' overall statistical contributions, with the wideout ending his inaugural year by amassing 109 receptions for 1,204 yards and seven touchdowns. Without question, Nabers will see plenty of attention from fantasy managers heading into next season, although his outlook could improve even more if the Giants land a capable signal-caller during the offseason.
