Who Should I Start? Justice Hill or A.J. Dillon

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill has received a bit of an uptick in snaps while Lamar Jackson (hamstring) has been sidelined. A combination of the defense giving up a historic amount of points while the offense fails to get any type of rhythm meant Hill had some more passing plays to work with. Unfortunately, that only turned into nine fantasy points across their last two games. In the three games that Jackson started and finished, Hill registered a total of nine fantasy points as well. If Jackson returns against the Chicago Bears, Hill will likely take a bigger step back snap wise. On top of that, the Bears have been better against opposing running backs through the air than on the ground. Fantasy managers can avoid Hill in this matchup if possible.

Philadelphia Eagles running back A.J. Dillon was the only other member of the Philly backfield to get any action in Week 6, carrying the ball once and grabbing two receptions in the loss. Dillon played just 14% of snaps once again, but seems to have cemented himself as the primary handcuff option for if Saquon Barkley goes down. If managers have Barkley and some extra room on the bench, Dillon isn't a bad piece to add just in case. But for now, that's his only fantasy value. He should not be in lineups for his upcoming matchup against the Vikings.
