Who Should I Start? Miles Sanders or Dylan Sampson

Dallas Cowboys running back Miles Sanders (ankle, knee) has been moved to season-ending injured reserve, according to Patrick Walker of the Dallas Cowboys. Sanders was limited in practice on Wednesday before missing Thursday's practice, but now his season is over as he deals with multiple injuries to his ankle and knee. The 28-year-old served as the primary backup running back to Javonte Williams over the first four games of the season before missing Week 5. Rookie Jaydon Blue was active in his place and should step into a larger role now with Sanders out. Blue shouldn't be in lineups for Week 6, but he is an interesting speculative pickup ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Cleveland Browns running back Dylan Sampson will take on the Miami Dolphins at home in Week 7. Sampson has been quiet since a big Week 1 where he caught eight passes for 64 yards. With Quinshon Judkins dominating the backfield work, Sampson handled just five touches in a Week 6 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Dolphins have struggled against the run this year as their defense is allowing the fifth-most fantasy points per game to opposing running backs thus far. That being said, Sampson is unlikely to see enough work to take advantage of the plus matchup. He is best left on fantasy benches heading into Sunday's games.
