Who Should I Start? Jonathan Taylor or TreVeyon Henderson

Sunday, December 28, 9:25 PM

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor did not have his most efficient day in his team's 23-17 Week 17 loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, but he was able to volume his way to solid production. Taylor recorded 21 carries for 70 yards and a touchdown and also hauled in three receptions for 14 yards on six targets. The 26-year-old has now recorded 1,924 yards from scrimmage and 20 touchdowns on 353 touches across 16 games in 2025. While Taylor's numbers for the season are excellent, he's struggled with efficiency throughout the second half of the season. Including Week 17, he's averaged fewer than four yards per carry in five out of his last six games. Still, the Colts' offense remains built around Taylor, as he's recorded at least 18 touches in every game but two this season. Indianapolis will travel to Houston to take on the Texans in Week 18.

New England Patriots running back TreVeyon Henderson (personal) will not carry an injury designation into his team's Wild Card Weekend matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. Henderson's status was called into question after he missed practice on Friday for personal reasons, but it appears as though he will be good to go on Sunday. Henderson played a key role in the Patriots' offense during the regular season, recording 1,132 yards from scrimmage and 10 touchdowns on 215 touches. The 23-year-old emerged as the lead back in New England over the second half of the season, recording four multi-touchdown games from Week 10 onwards. Now that he's active, fantasy managers in playoff leagues should view Henderson as a high-upside RB1 option entering the postseason.
