Who Should I Start? Ollie Gordon II or Kaleb Johnson

Miami Dolphins running back Ollie Gordon II will continue to be the team's primary backup as they come back from their bye week and host the Saints. Gordon had a touchdown in Week 11 with nine carries for 45 rushing yards and a touchdown against the Commanders in Madrid. He has three touchdowns on the year, totaling 164 rushing yards on 50 carries. He played a limited role for a few weeks while dealing with an ankle issue, but he seemed to be past that issue in Week 11 and should definitely be 100% after the bye week. He played 39% of snaps and should continue to get a few opportunities each week as a change-of-pace back. He is the No. 57 RB in RotoBaller's Week 13 rankings, meaning that he is best left on the bench in most standard-sized formats in his role, even in this favorable matchup.

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson won't be on the fantasy radar for this weekend's clash with the visiting Buffalo Bills. The former third-round pick has had a quiet rookie season, amassing 58 yards on 22 carries across seven appearances. At the beginning of the campaign, Johnson appeared to be on his way to playing a sizable snap share in a backfield ripe for the taking. That didn't come to fruition, though, as teammates Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell have formed a formidable duo for the Steelers. Furthermore, opportunities in Pittsburgh are hard to come by, considering the team boasts the third-slowest pace of play (56.7 plays per game). As it stands, the University of Iowa alum is a talented athlete, but his path to playing time -- at least in 2025 -- is less clear than we'd like for fantasy. Either way, he's still a nice stash in dynasty leagues.
