Who Should I Start? Kenneth Walker III or Marvin Harrison Jr.

Seattle Seahawks running back Kenneth Walker III bounced back from a disappointing Week 1 performance by leading his team in rushing in Seattle's 31-17 victory over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Walker III recorded 105 rushing yards and a touchdown on 13 carries, adding one catch for 13 yards as a receiver. On a negative note, Walker III earned fewer carries than Seahawks running back Zach Charbonnet for the second straight game, although Charbonnet recorded just 10 rushing yards on his 15 attempts in Week 2. It appears Seattle intends to heavily feature both backs, which may make the Seattle backfield tough to evaluate on a week-to-week basis. Walker III profiles as a low-end RB2/high-end flex with explosive upside due to his big-play ability going into a Week 3 matchup with the New Orleans Saints.

While Arizona Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon said he's not concerned about the amount of targets that second-year wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. gets, he knows that his being involved is what is best for the offense. "I know he's got to touch the football for our offense to play at its premium," Gannon said. Harrison had five catches on six targets for 71 yards and a touchdown in the Week 1 win over the New Orleans Saints, but he caught only two of five targets for 27 yards in the Week 2 victory over the Carolina Panthers on Sunday. The Cardinals got out to a big early lead and took their foot off the gas pedal in an eventual 27-22 win, so Harrison wasn't really needed. Harrison and quarterback Kyler Murray reportedly worked on their chemistry this offseason, but it hasn't looked great through two games. Fantasy managers will be expecting a bounce-back game in Week 3 against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers.
