Who Should I Start? Nick Chubb or Mason Taylor

Saturday, November 15, 6:04 AM

Houston Texans running back Nick Chubb is a touchdown-dependent flex option against the Titans in Week 11, since the Titans have allowed the fourth-most fantasy points to running backs this season. Chubb only played 10 snaps and had five carries against the Jaguars last week since the game script called for the Texans to go pass-heavy, but he had been playing around 50% of snaps before that. He had double-digit carries in four of his previous five games, though, and found the end zone in Week 2 and Week 5. He will likely need to get another touchdown to be a good option in Week 11, since his yardage totals haven't been great. What is great, though, is the matchup, and it boosts Chubb to RB34 in RotoBaller's Week 11 rankings as a result.

New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor was a disappointment in Week 10's win against the Cleveland Browns, hauling in 1-of-2 targets for a gain of four yards. Heading into the team's bye, the rookie had garnered five or more targets in five of six games. In fact, he recorded his second-highest target total of the season the week prior (eight). However, Taylor has followed 8- and 12-target outings with one-catch, single-digit yardage output. Naturally, the 21-year-old is experiencing NFL growing pains, although a struggling Jets' offense hasn't been an ecosystem conducive to success. With wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) facing an extended absence, it stands to reason that Taylor would absorb a higher target share. On the other hand, there's no guarantee New York won't again deploy a run-heavy attack. Taylor is a low-end streaming option, and, officially, RotoBaller's PPR TE26 for his week 11 matchup with a staunch New England Patriots' defense.
