Who Should I Start? Josh Allen or C.J. Stroud

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen (elbow) was listed as a full participant in Wednesday's practice, according to the team. Allen is listed with a right-elbow injury on the Week 13 injury report, but he should be fine to play this weekend against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The 29-year-old had his left shoulder examined by trainers in last Thursday night's loss to the Houston Texans in a game in which he was constantly being hit and sacked by the No. 1 defense in the league. Allen was also seen shaking his right hand, but he assured us after the game that everything was fine. He scored a whopping six touchdowns (three passing, three rushing) in Week 11, but then laid an egg last week with zero touchdowns. He should be able to bounce back against Pittsburgh this weekend, but it sure would be nice if he could get tight end Dalton Kincaid (hamstring) and receiver Keon Coleman back.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion) has cleared the league's concussion protocol and will return to the field in Week 13 when the Texans face the Colts in a divisional clash. With Stroud sidelined since exiting a Week 9 loss to the Broncos, the Texans have reeled off three straight wins with Davis Mills at the helm and put themselves right back in the race for the AFC South crown. While the defense has been the main catalyst for the late-season surge, receivers Nico Collins and Jayden Higgins have enjoyed arguably the best three-game stretches of their respective seasons. With that success appearing to come on the heels of a philosophical offensive shift, rather than just a quarterback change, both players should see continued involvement. Collins is RotoBaller's WR 11 for the week, while Higgins remains in flex consideration in deeper leagues against a Colts defense that still ranks as below average against the pass, despite recent improvements.
