Who Should I Start? Owen Wright or Jawhar Jordan

Baltimore Ravens running back Owen Wright (foot) was carted off the field during Saturday's preseason finale against the Green Bay Packers. It has been announced that Wright broke his foot during the second quarter of this contest. This is a shame considering Wright was the favorite for the third string spot in the Ravens backfield. Derrick Henry will see the bulk of the carries with Justice Hill getting mixed in as the change-of-pace back. Now, Rasheen Ali could slide into the third string spot with Wright expected to miss significant time. There's unlikely to be much fantasy value for anyone behind Henry and Hill in this backfield.

The Houston Texans reached injury settlements with rookie running back Jawhar Jordan (oblique) and defensive tackle Pheldarius Payne (hamstring) on Tuesday, waiving them from Injured Reserve. Jordan was taken in the sixth round this past April out of Louisville by the Texans, but he won't make his NFL debut in Houston. The 25-year-old will need to prove his healthy before potentially joining another organization, most likely on the practice squad. Jordan lacks size and physicality, but he could eventually develop into a third-down back somewhere if he can stay healthy because of his vision on the field and his blocking skills in pass protection. Payne, 24, is expected to join the team's practice squad after reaching an injury settlement. He suffered his hamstring injury in the team's preseason finale.
