Who Should I Start? Myles Gaskin or Jonathan Taylor

The Minnesota Vikings signed running back Myles Gaskin back to their practice squad on Monday after the Los Angeles Rams had signed him away, according to a source. Gaskin has been on an active NFL 53-man roster twice this year -- once with Minnesota and once with the Rams -- but he hasn't gotten on the field at all in 2023. His return to Minnesota coincides with Alexander Mattison suffering a concussion in the Week 10 win over the New Orleans Saints. The Vikings could use the extra RB depth with Mattison's availability now in question for the Week 11 game on Sunday night against the Denver Broncos firmly in question. Ty Chandler could serve as the lead back in Week 11 if Mattison isn't cleared, and the Vikes also have Kene Nwangwu available to take on a bigger role if needed.

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor was the lone bright spot in the Colts' 23-19 loss to the Houston Texans on Saturday night. Taylor ran the ball 30 times for a whopping 188 yards on the ground and a touchdown. He reeled in both of his targets for an additional eight yards through the air. Taylor (heel) left the game in the second half briefly with an injury but did return just a few drives later. The 24-year-old closes out the regular season with 894 yards from scrimmage and eight total touchdowns in ten games played. Indy is now eliminated from playoff contention with their Week 18 loss.
