Who Should I Start? Justice Hill or Kenny Gainwell

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill was listed as the No. 2 option behind Derrick Henry on the team's latest unofficial depth chart. It seemed like Adam Randall (undisclosed) and Rasheen Ali were both trending up this preseason, but nevertheless, Hill is holding on to his second-string role for the time being. Hill was the RB37 in PPR leagues in 2024, but he took a step backward when he missed seven games last year. With that being said, Hill is still a very productive pass-catching back who should consistently play on receiving downs. He had 42 catches and 383 receiving yards in his explosive season in 2024, and he should continue to get involved in a new offensive system led by coordinator Declan Doyle, assuming he's able to stay healthy. There's low-end fantasy appeal in PPR leagues here. Hill won't get a significant number of carries regardless of whether Derrick Henry is on the field, but he should maintain a consistent receiving role, which makes him a low-end flex in deeper PPR formats.
