Who Should I Start? Keaontay Ingram or Jase McClellan

Saturday, August 10, 11:28 PM

Kansas City Chiefs running back Keaontay Ingram chipped in a team-high four carries in Saturday night's preseason defeat to the hosting Jacksonville Jaguars at EverBank stadium, rushing for 12 yards in the loss. His longest carry went for 10 yards, and he wasn't targeted in the passing game on Saturday evening against the Jaguars. Ingram is one of three Chiefs' backs battling for the top backup role behind workhorse starter Isiah Pacheco, but veteran Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Deneric Prince, who has worked as KC's No. 2 back in training camp, figure to have a leg up on him. The 24-year-old former sixth-round pick has rushed for just 2.2 yards per carry over 62 rushing attempts for his career, so he's no guarantee to make the roster this fall. Ingram will look to do more with his touches in next Saturday's preseason game against the visiting Detroit Lions.

Atlanta Falcons rookie sixth-round running back Jase McClellan (undisclosed) has been banged up the past few weeks in training camp but should make the final 53-man roster as a fourth running back. The former Alabama product carried the ball four times for 12 yards and added an 11-yard catch on his only target in the team's preseason finale on Friday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 22-year-old picked up 55 rushing yards last week against the Baltimore Ravens and looks lined up as the team's RB4 behind Bijan Robinson, Tyler Allgeier and Carlos Washington. McClellan fell to the sixth round in April because of a foot injury that cut his final season short at Alabama last year. His skill set doesn't particularly stand out, but McClellan is a well-rounded rookie that will give Atlanta depth at the position. McClellan is only worth stashing in deep dynasty/keeper leagues.
