Who Should I Start? Jonathan Taylor or Jaylen Warren

Saturday, October 25, 9:13 AM

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor has been the best player in fantasy through the first seven weeks of the season. He continued his white-hot start to the year in a Week 7 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, rushing for 94 yards and three touchdowns. Taylor has rushed for 697 yards while scoring 11 all-purpose touchdowns on the year. He will look to keep it going at home against the Tennessee Titans in Week 8. The Titans have struggled against the run this season, allowing the fourth-most fantasy points per game to running backs. Taylor is in a smash spot and should be locked into all fantasy lineups as a top-three play at the running-back position.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Warren is coming off his best performance of the season and will look to stay hot against the Green Bay Packers in Week 8. On paper, this is not a favorable matchup for Warren, as the Packers surrender the third-fewest fantasy points per contest and fourth-fewest yards per carry to opposing running backs. However, Green Bay has given up the second-most receptions per game to the position, and Warren remains a key weapon in Pittsburgh's passing attack. This Sunday night showdown carries a healthy projected point total, suggesting enough offensive volume to keep Warren involved. Fantasy managers can continue to trust the fourth-year back as a solid RB2 in all formats.
