Who Should I Start? Matt Breida or Tyreek Hill

Friday, December 22, 1:40 AM

New York Giants running back Matt Breida (hamstring) is dealing with a hamstring injury in Week 16 and was listed as limited on the team's first practice report on Thursday. The good news is Breida has an extra day to recover this week with the G-Men not playing until Christmas Day against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles, but his status bears watching as the backup to starting RB Saquon Barkley. The 28-year-old should be available in Week 16, barring a setback the next couple of days. Breida doesn't have any standalone fantasy value with limited volume behind a bell-cow back in an offense that doesn't put up many points. He has only 55 rushing attempts all year for 151 yards (2.75 yards per carry) and one touchdown in 14 total contests. If Breida is limited or out on Monday, rookie Eric Gray would be Barkley's direct backup.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill put together a fantastic season that saw him on track to break 2,000 receiving yards at one point. In their wild-card loss to his former team, Hill was the only player to find the end zone when he caught a 53-yard touchdown pass at the beginning of the second quarter. He finished the game with 62 yards and a score while catching five of his eight targets. In the subzero temperatures, the Dolphins' offense would go on to struggle for the rest of the game and didn't score a single point after that. After such a successful season and the way this offense has been built, Hill should be another top selection in next year's fantasy drafts. He could even remain a first-round selection despite entering his age-30 season.
