Who Should I Start? Kenny McIntosh or Terrell Jennings

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.

New England Patriots running back Terrell Jennings got his biggest workload of the season in Week 9 against the Falcons, and he converted his 11 carries to 35 rushing yards and a touchdown in the Patriots' 24-23 win. He hauled in his only target for a nine-yard catch as well. The undrafted rookie from Florida A&M played just 17 snaps compared to TreVeyon Henderson's 51, but he was able to vulture the touchdown in the first half and finished with three red zone carries. Rhamondre Stevenson (toe) missed Week 9, and if he's out agin in Week 10, Jennings would likely continue his role as a change-of-pace and red zone option in a timeshare with Henderson. In that scenario, he would have touchdown-dependent upside off waiver wires if you need help in the backfield.
