Who Should I Start? Jonathan Taylor or RJ Harvey

Monday, December 1, 5:26 AM

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor carried the ball 21 times for 85 yards and caught three of his five targets for 36 yards in a 20-16 loss to the Houston Texans in Week 13. Taylor was held out of the end zone for the second straight game, although he was able to offset that with a solid afternoon in the passing game. The veteran running back has been excellent this season, rushing for 1,282 yards while catching 35 passes for 304 yards and scoring 17 all-purpose touchdowns. He will remain a high-end RB1 in Week 14 against the Jacksonville Jaguars on the road.

Denver Broncos rookie running back R.J. Harvey played a season-high 60.7% of the snaps in Week 11 against the Kansas City Chiefs, but had underwhelming production with 11 carries for 30 yards to go with three receptions (three targets) for 20 yards as a receiver. In the first game without J.K. Dobbins (foot), the rookie second-rounder handled the bulk of the running back touches, which bodes well for his rest of season outlook. Jaleel McLaughin's involvement near the goal line could limit the upside as he took two of the three carries inside the 10 and scored a touchdown against the Chiefs, but we'll need to see more than one game to determine that. Harvey has the explosiveness and receiving ability to be impactful in fantasy down the stretch, and he gets a prime matchup in Week 13 against the Washington Commanders.
