Who Should I Start? Justice Hill or Qadree Ollison

Monday, September 8, 12:43 PM

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill handled two carries for a loss of 14 yards and corralled 1-of-2 targets for an additional three yards in his team's 41-40 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday Night Football. The 27-year-old combined with backfield mate Rasheen Ali for a total of five opportunities as incumbent starter Derrick Henry took a majority of the backfield work -- and ran wild -- against the Bills. Hill did gain a yard on the ground, but lost 15 on an awkward exchange with Lamar Jackson in which he fumbled and the ball bounced backward. While the seventh-year pro carried some low-end PPR value in 2024, it was spotty at best and wildly unpredictable. He may see such efforts again in a more pass-friendly game plan, but his floor is volatile for the time being. Baltimore will host the Cleveland Browns next Sunday.

Free-agent running back Qadree Ollison is joining the Steelers' practice squad. The 26-year-old has appeared in 19 games throughout his career. However, after amassing four touchdowns as a rookie, he hasn't been nearly as productive ever since. Ollison, who was recently cut by the Jacksonville Jaguars, poses no threat to earn significant playing time this season, meaning fantasy managers should look past him heading into the 2023-24 campaign. But at the very least, he could get on the field during the regular season if Najee Harris, Jaylen Warren, or Anthony McFarland Jr. goes down with an injury.
