Who Should I Start? Kenny McIntosh or Kalel Mullings

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Seattle Seahawks running back Kenny McIntosh (knee) is believed to have sustained a torn ACL. He suffered the injury during practice on Saturday, requiring assistance off the field. The 25-year-old finished the 2024 campaign with only 172 yards off 31 carries. He is competing for the No. 3 spot behind Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet while potentially serving as a return man on special teams. However, with McIntosh's season likely over, rookie Damien Martinez could replace him on the depth chart, although that won't help him be relevant for fantasy managers, at least as long as Walker and Charbonnet are healthy. McIntosh will undergo further testing, with an official diagnosis expected soon.

The Tennessee Titans are placing rookie running back Kalel Mullings (ankle) on Injured Reserve due to an ankle injury, per ESPN's Turron Davenport. Mullings has been active for two games so far in 2025, but has yet to record an NFL carry. He will now be sidelined for at least the Titans' next four games and will be first eligible to return in Week 8 against the Indianapolis Colts. Tennessee is activating running back Jordan Mims for their Week 4 matchup against the Houston Texans, but veteran back Tony Pollard should be expected to see a heavy workload. The Titans could soon get some backfield help in the form of Tyjae Spears (ankle), who is eligible to return from IR in Week 5.
