Who Should I Start? Myles Gaskin or Elijah Mitchell

Seattle Seahawks running back Myles Gaskin was recently re-signed to the practice squad earlier in the week. Now, Gaskin will be signed to the active roster ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings. The Seahawks are in need of another running back with George Holani (hamstring) heading to the injured reserve. Gaskin hasn't actually seen a rushing attempt since the 2024 season with the Jacksonville Jaguars. The 28-year-old will serve as a depth option behind Kenneth Walker III and Zach Charbonnet.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Elijah Mitchell is a healthy inactive for the Week 1 regular-season opener on Friday night in Brazil against the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers, according to Nate Taylor of ESPN. It's bad news for Mitchell heading into his first year with the Chiefs, as it looks like he's the RB4 to open the year, behind starter Isiah Pacheco, Kareem Hunt and rookie Brashard Smith. The 27-year-old was getting some first-team reps early in training camp, but that was a long time ago in late July. Mitchell signed a one-year, $2.5 million deal with KC in the offseason after spending his first three NFL seasons with the San Francisco 49ers. In his three years in the Bay Area, the former sixth-rounder in 2021 out of Louisiana averaged 4.7 yards per tote on 327 rush attempts for 1,523 yards and nine touchdowns (five in his rookie season).
