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.

Tennessee Titans rookie running back Kalel Mullings (ankle) has officially been ruled out of Week 2 against the visiting Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Mullings made his NFL debut in last week's loss to the Denver Broncos as the RB3 behind Tony Pollard and Julius Chestnut, but was quickly injured in the first half on special teams. The 22-year-old sixth-rounder didn't see a single touch on offense in the 20-12 loss in Denver. With Tyjae Spears (ankle) on Injured Reserve and set to miss at least the first four weeks of the season, Tennessee's backfield depth behind Pollard and Chestnut is dangerously thin. Now that Mullings is out, the Titans were forced to bring up Jordan Mims from the practice squad for Sunday's game against the Rams. He'll operate as the team's No. 3 RB in Week 2.
