Who Should I Start? Kendre Miller or Emanuel Wilson

Sunday, August 17, 5:02 PM

New Orleans Saints running back Kendre Miller started the first half of the Saints' second preseason game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Miller finished with six carries for 21 yards in Sunday's 17-17 tie. He has logged exactly six carries each in the team's two preseason contests as he looks to establish himself as Alvin Kamara's backup following two injury-plagued seasons. With Cam Akers and Clyde Edwards-Helaire turning in underwhelming performances again this week and Devin Neal (hamstring) sidelined by a hamstring injury, the backup job appears to be Miller's to lose. He's worth holding as a handcuff to Kamara in deeper fantasy leagues.

Green Bay Packers running back Emanuel Wilson led the Packers in rushing yards in their final preseason game, a 20-7 win over the Seattle Seahawks. Wilson came into the game after Chris Brooks left in the middle of the Packers' second drive. Playing primarily at the end of the first quarter and almost halfway into the second quarter. Leading the team in rushing yards with 38 and tying for the most carries (8) on the day, Wilson is third in the pecking order for running back touches behind Josh Jacobs and Brooks. Wilson is very likely to break camp with the Packers if MarShawn Lloyd (hamstring) isn't healthy, but Wilson shouldn't be drafted in fantasy leagues unless more injuries strike the running back room in Green Bay.
